Sigma Announces Visual Data Modeling, SQL Runner and One-click Snowflake IntegrationSAN FRANCISCO, June 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Today at the inaugural Snowflake Summit in San Francisco, Sigma, an innovator in cloud business intelligence (BI) and analytics, announced its forthcoming release of a visual data modeling capability, SQL Runner, and one-click Snowflake integration, allowing anyone to explore data in cloud warehouses and generate insights in minutes. Sigma's new visual approach to cloud data analysis removes barriers to BI adoption—which, according to Gartner, still only sits at 35 percent of all employees. The new release shortens the time it takes to implement a cloud analytics solution and provides a single, collaborative environment for both BI and domain experts that is secure and governed in cloud data warehouses. "For decades BI adoption has been hindered by months of setup time, poor user experiences, and code-based modeling that kept business teams out of the iterative data conversation," said Rob Woollen, CEO and co-founder of Sigma. "Sigma changes the paradigm. Companies can now set up cloud-based analytics in minutes and provide unprecedented data access to domain experts in a familiar interface, without sacrificing security or governance."

A Single Collaborative Analytics Environment for SQL and Spreadsheet Experts Alike One-Click Snowflake Integration Simplifies BI Implementation "Sigma has taken a process that historically took months, and reduced it to a day," says Mia Oppelstrup, Business Intelligence Manager at Volta Charging. "I look forward to putting Data Blocks to work so Volta's teams can access trusted data sources for faster, more accurate data discovery and reporting." Sigma will be featured on stage throughout the Snowflake Summit this week, including a public demo of its new visual modeling and SQL runner capabilities in the Summit Theater today at 12:55 pm. Conference attendees can also connect with Sigma at booth #P8 to see the power of Sigma and Snowflake in action. These releases come on the heels of Sigma's public launch, a string of BI veteran hires, Most Innovative Product Award at Strata Data 2019, and significant revenue growth from onboarding data-first companies including Lime, Snowflake, Volta Charging, Clover, Sears Home Services, Farmers Insurance, and Philz Coffee.
