No exports. Excel on the cloud.

 It looks like a spreadsheet, but it scales to billions of rows and updates your warehouse in real-time. Stop exporting to CSV.
About Spreadsheets in Sigma
Teams don’t want to give up Excel. They want to fix it. Sigma keeps the grid, formulas, and pivots people rely on, but runs them on live warehouse data. With Sigma there is no need for exports, version chaos, or row limits. Just governed flexibility at enterprise scale.
Show Info
Trusted by 2,000+ leading enterprises around the world
Familiar to everyone
Skip the training curve. Sigma's spreadsheet interface lets teams work with formulas, pivots, and filters—just like Excel—but connected to live warehouse data.
Writeback for planning
Capture human inputs alongside live data. Input tables let you type budgets, goals, and scenarios directly into Sigma, then compare them to actuals in real time.
Every change tracked
Built-in audit trail shows who changed what, when—no more emailing files or wondering which version is correct.

Work the way you know

Plan and write back with Input Tables

Input Tables are built for the moments when humans need to add or change values, not just analyze them.
Type budgets, targets, and scenarios alongside live actuals
Edit cells or paste rows into Input Tables
Write updates back to a warehouse table
Keep a full audit trail of changes

Sheets and Input Table FAQs

Common questions about Sigma's spreadsheet experience.

What is Sigma’s Spreadsheet UI?

Sigma’s Spreadsheet UI is a spreadsheet-style way to work on warehouse data. The data stays in your warehouse, so you don’t need exports or extracts.

How are Sigma workbooks and sheets organized?

Workbooks are like spreadsheet files. Pages are like sheets (tabs), and a page can include tables, pivots, charts, filters, and text.

How do calculations work in Sigma?

Sigma is mostly column-based, not cell-by-cell. You define a calculation once and apply it across the dataset, with work pushed to the warehouse.

What are Input Tables, and what does “writeback” mean?

Input Tables let people add rows and edit values in Sigma. Those changes can be written back to a warehouse table so downstream work can use them.

When should I use an Input Table vs. modeling upstream?

Use an Input Table when the source of truth is human input like forecasts, assignments, approvals, or notes. Model upstream when values should be derived from systems or business logic.

How do Pivot Tables work in Sigma?

Pivot Tables summarize data across dimensions using live warehouse queries. You can group fields, add measures, show totals, and drill into details.
