## About Sigma
Sigma is the AI runtime layer for analytics, agents, and apps built on live warehouse data. It is a cloud analytics and business intelligence platform that helps business and technical teams explore live data, build reports and applications, and deploy AI agents directly on a cloud data warehouse, using a familiar spreadsheet interface alongside SQL, Python, and AI. - Analytics: Use Sigma for classic business intelligence workloads like pixel-perfect reporting, embedded analytics, and self-service access to data in an Excel-like interface. Build with AI, spreadsheet functions, SQL, or Python. - Agents: Deploy AI agents that act on live data and run multi-step workflows. Build them with natural language and your choice of enterprise LLM or warehouse AI. - Apps: Build AI Apps for operational work like planning and forecasting, scenario modeling, and approval routing, with writeback and governance automatically configured. Every artifact in Sigma inherits the security, permissions, and row-level access already set in the cloud data warehouse. Because governance is enforced at the source, anything a team builds is IT-approved from the start. Sigma solves a persistent tradeoff in enterprise data work. Business teams typically wait on a central data team to build reports and tools, while ad hoc AI and app-building tools produce work that sits outside IT's control. Sigma removes that tradeoff by keeping analysis, reporting, applications, and agents on live warehouse data under one set of permissions, so non-technical users build what they need while IT keeps a single, auditable system of control. Founded in 2014, Sigma is a privately held company headquartered in San Francisco, with offices in New York, London, and Sydney. More than 2,000 companies trust Sigma, including DoorDash, Blackstone, JPMorgan Chase, and Figma. Sigma is the business intelligence partner of the year for both Snowflake (2023-2026) and Databricks (2025-2026).

I would like to see more features that allow us to sort, that do not freeze up the reports or take an extended period of over 5 minutes to load when switching between agents and their metrics.

  ### 21. Easy to use and build, Some time consuming aspects but updates keep rolling out

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 03, 2021

**What do you like best about Sigma?**

Ease of use - as long as you have a team to organize the underlying tables, the tool is then very easy for users that may not have advanced SQL knowledge to then go in and build custom reporting and perform data analysis.

**What do you dislike about Sigma?**

Scalability - when leveraging Sigma for customer reporting, there was not a way to dynamically schedule reports. What I mean by this is that we would send the same report to multiple customers but would drop in a unique ID so that the report would filter for only their data. This required us to create copies of the report and then schedule when it would be ideal to be able to apply the filter when scheduling the report.

Custom data analysis
Client facing reporting

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rohan W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2020

**What do you like best about Sigma?**

UI is exceptional, very easy to use, intuitive. For smaller datasets it's a great quick and dirty solution for quick analysis and calculations. Joins are extremely easy and intuitive.

**What do you dislike about Sigma?**

Main downside is computing power, very common to have timeouts for larger datasets. Wish it was easier to organize and you could see a folder tree like Box and other content management solutions. Adding in AI capabilities would be pretty incredible. The excel export limit is often quite limiting and would be great if it could be expanded. An easier help suggestions  for formula suggestions would be great as well (in product, not just in the community section).

**Recommendations to others considering Sigma:**

Take the trainings, they really help. Create custom tables in snowflake and then do the data analysis in sigma if required.

**What problems is Sigma solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Multiple table joins without sql knowledge, it allows me to self serve a lot of data request analysis. I Really enjoy the column calculations/easy visulizations all in one place.

**What do you like best about Sigma?**

I've basically only used it to find interesting examples of products for my analyses, and I like that this tool has saved me a lot of time in more than one occasion. I have turned to it because it was much faster to find  examples from our database by using this too instead of having to manually look at all the products. I also like that it is very intuitive to use.

**What do you dislike about Sigma?**

I would like to be able to easily open the results all together in our database  (all together instead of having to open each result one by one), to choose the examples to use in my presentation

**What problems is Sigma solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's easier and faster to find innovative examples using sigma than doing it manually. I am solving the problem of having to  go manually through long lists of data that might not be relevant while sigma helps me to easily point out some objects with some characteristics that we are not yet able to do from the internal tool.
