Core to every project 
Starter Sigma setup starts from $8,000. Mid-level implementation with legacy BI migration ranges from $15,000–$35,000. Enterprise embedded analytics starts at $40,000+. Fixed quote provided after free discovery session.
Starter setup: 3–4 weeks. Full implementation with migration: 6–8 weeks. Enterprise-scale: 10–16 weeks. Timeline committed in writing before we start.
Sigma works with Snowflake, Databricks, Google BigQuery, and Amazon Redshift. We’ll confirm your warehouse compatibility in the strategy session.
Yes. That’s Sigma’s core differentiator. Business users work in a familiar spreadsheet-style interface on top of live cloud data. No SQL required. Our governance setup ensures they can’t accidentally break the underlying data model.
Yes. BI migration is one of our core Sigma services. We audit your existing reports, redesign the data model for live-query architecture, and rebuild your reports in Sigma. We’ve migrated 50+ BI environments.
Sigma’s key advantage: it queries your cloud warehouse live (no extracts or caches). Tableau uses extracts that get stale. Power BI uses dataset refreshes. Sigma always shows current data. It also has a spreadsheet-style interface that non-technical users adopt significantly faster.
This is the most common concern – and Sigma is specifically designed for it. We build a governed semantic layer that gives business users freedom to explore, but protects master metrics and data definitions. Users can’t accidentally edit the source of truth.
🛡 Guarantee: If business user actions break governed metrics in your Sigma environment, we fix it free of charge within 48 hours.
If Tableau is working for you, stick with it. We’ll tell you honestly. But if your Tableau extracts are slow, your users aren’t self-serving, or your cloud warehouse isn’t being fully utilized – Sigma is worth a serious look. We’ll show you a comparison in your strategy session.
Sigma works with Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery, and Redshift. If you’re still on a legacy warehouse, we can migrate you first (using our data migration services) then implement Sigma on the modern platform. We can scope both together.
Sigma licenses are per-user (viewer, explorer, creator tiers). We help you right-size your licensing in the strategy session based on your team structure. No over-licensing, no under-licensing.
