Cons
"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.""The administrative side of Sisense is a little cumbersome and confusing.""At present there are additional costs involved if we wish to share our data queues within this solution, which we would like to see removed.""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.""Larger datasets will sometimes give a "Accumulated logs" error when trying to make minor changes. T""They should improve the filters to create downloaded data by moving them to the top of the dashboard.""The solution's setup process could be easier.""I would like to see more development and growth for the support of Knowledge Base and Community forums."

"There should be a better or an easier way to establish that connection to external sources.""Would like the ability to be able to benchmark."
