QBeeQ Asset Auditor: A smarter way to manage your Sisense data assets
Optimize to cut storage and processing costs, refine data models, and boost performance Query and dashboard performance are closely linked, often hindered by bloated data models. Excessive columns, unused tables, and inefficient relationships force queries to process unnecessary data, slowing down dashboards. This leads to frustration, delayed insights, and lower productivity. Use the Asset Auditor dashboards to: See all your data sources and follow the dependencies across data sources, data models, tables, columns, and dashboards and widgets Identify table and column utilization across dashboards and widgets for better model design. Target and remove empty and unused data sources, data models, columns, and dashboards By reducing or removing unused tables and columns and optimizing queries, organizations can drive down storage and processing costs while increasing performance and user engagement. Expose (and prevent) hidden dashboard issues affecting your users A key risk in delivering analytics is unintended downstream effects from data model changes, causing broken widgets, missing calculations, and misleading insights. Without full visibility, teams may disrupt critical business data. Errors often surface only when users load dashboards, despite backend checks, leading to frustration, missed insights, and wasted troubleshooting time. The Asset Auditor will help you to identify the source of these errors, from deleted data sources or missing data down to widget-level errors - reducing the time to troubleshoot and identify root causes and push fixes. Use the Asset Auditor at each step to verify that dashboards are error-free when delivered to end-users. Plan and execute changes with more confidence When shared elements are scattered across dashboards, making changes can feel overwhelming without knowing the full scope. The Asset Auditor can help you confidently assess scope by identifying widget distribution across dashboards to answer the questions: Where are these widgets used? Can changes be done manually? Or do I need a script? Making changes to the underlying data models, while preventing errors, has never been easier because the Asset Auditor will show you exactly which dashboards are using which data models, and which widgets are using which tables and columns. When teams make modifications without full visibility, they risk disrupting critical business insights. By proactively assessing the impact of changes, organizations can prevent costly errors, reduce time spent troubleshooting, and maintain high-quality analytics. You can't optimize what you can't see Organizations pour resources into analytics, but without visibility into how data assets are used, inefficiencies pile up, wasting storage, slowing performance, and inflating costs. For those responsible for maintaining Sisense environments, from data architects and model builders to dashboard designers, the challenge isn’t just creating reports—it’s ensuring the entire infrastructure runs efficiently. Asset Auditor changes the game by providing full transparency into how data is structured, utilized, and performing across your Sisense environment. With clear insights into dependencies, usage patterns, and optimization opportunities, teams can refine models, improve query speed, reduce storage costs, and ensure users get accurate, fast insights—all while preventing costly disruptions before they happen.
Outer joins (preview) - Release notes
An outer join (left, right, full) combines data from two tables, including all matching rows and any unmatched rows from one or both tables, filling in NULL for missing data. Analytical platforms use outer joins to achieve: Broader analytical capabilities: Ensure all relevant data is visible, even if there is no exact match in another table (e.g., view all products, including products with no sales). Identify Gaps: Easily spot data integrity issues and missing information or relationships, which is crucial for analysis and reporting.

That’s why when clients and prospects desire to push the limits, both in terms of data complexity and quantity, we happily oblige.Does Your Project Have A Timeline? Planning For And Defining Success
Timelines are a key component of any dashboard implementation. Considering the available time is vital to establishing reasonable goals and how to best prioritize tasks. More importantly, adoption improves when projects show fast results instead of dragging on endlessly. Planning a roadmap for implementation can produce a successful integration for you and your team.
