"The embedding feature is great."
"I can't name the features the way the Knowage community calls them because I still don't know the lingo. However, I can describe them. I like the ability to join more than one report, set all fields on one end, and replicate that on the other reports. I like that a lot. I think it's one of the features that got me using Knowage. They have tables, and I like that too. They took SQL scripts and many other scripts and enabled them to even correlate with Python. That's also one of the best things about Knowage. You could also decide to get information per user role, and this is also a feature that I like in Knowage."
"The concept of engines is quite powerful allowing the user to work with report authoring/provisioning tools of their choice."
"Allows us to execute heavy, complex computations on the fly so customers can slice and dice the data based on their business needs."
"This solution is easy to learn how to use."
"There are many built-in connectors, which allow us to easily add new sources of data, often in minutes."
"We like that this solution allows us to use data cubes to set up specific visualizations."
"A very simple setup: Easy to download, install, and updates are pain free."
"ElastiCube Manager is a very easy to use ETL tool, which includes the ability to easily transform raw data into reusable data."
"The dashboard design interface is very intuitive and allows you to quickly and easily produce professional, innovative dashboards."
"The solution's technical support team is good."
"The only challenge here is that it's a Java-based platform. It requires very high technical skills."
"The dashboard components could be better."
"It would be better if more resources were available to help us learn how to use it. I wanted to use Knowage for a more extended period, but learning materials around the product were not really available and were not really straightforward. I've also seen inconsistencies between versions. For example, under the tools, especially in the cockpit, the way you create reports is now different. You will also find some configurations within a particular state, like a line chart, which differs from version to version. I think consistency is an essential feature in a product, especially for business intelligence products."
"Development of SpagoBI has now been moved to Knowage. Users interested in further developments of the platform will have to look there."
"The initial version we purchased only ran on Windows servers, which was less than ideal for our DevOps team. I believe that has been remedied in the latest release."
"They should improve the filters to create downloaded data by moving them to the top of the dashboard."
"I would like Sisense to improve its performance, particularly when we are dealing with large-scale data."
"This solution does not have tabs. In order to have tabs, you have to download an add-on to mimic the tabs. They should be integrated to improve the solution."
"The solution's setup process could be easier."
"I would love to have more customization capabilities for building dashboards, especially in creating custom widget sizes."
"I would also like to be able to run a bursts of reports based on different field values with PDF output right in the tool, rather than filtering on each field value and generating each PDF manually."
"The administrative side of Sisense is a little cumbersome and confusing."
