Provides all the frameworks and makes it easy to create environments for multiple projects

The best thing is that it provides all the frameworks and makes it easy to create environments for multiple projects using Anaconda. It is easy for a beginner to learn to use Anaconda. Comparatively, it is easier than using virtual environments or other environments because of the Conda environment. However, there are many things in Anaconda that people need to be aware of, so it can be challenging.

Useful for data visualization and business intelligence

Many of the features in Qlik Sense need to be available and reintroduced in QlikView. I believe many of the features have been added to QlikView after the layout containers were introduced. QlikView used to be a way more customizable tool than Qlik Sense is in the present time. Improvements are required in the hide and unhide functionality that falls under the layout container feature that has been used in my company in recent times. Hiding off the apps in the app overview tab based on the access was a really good feature that needs to be introduced back in the product since I see that, at the moment, there are multiple groups on the tool, owing to which multiple changes on the QMC part is required to handle the solution. Only the person with access to the dashboard in QlikView could have a link to the dashboard through QlikView's hub or access points. With Qlik Sense, one can see whatever is available in the stream. If a user wants to control everything in the product, then there is no need to make multiple changes in the QMC at the individual app level. The aforementioned area can be considered to improve Qlik Sense.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The documentation is excellent and the solution has a very large and active community that supports it."

"The virtual environment is very good."

"The best part of Anaconda is the media distribution that comes as part of it. It gets us started very quickly."

"The most valuable feature is the set of libraries that are used to support the functionality that we require."

"I can use Anaconda for non-heavy tasks."

"The solution is stable."

"The notebook feature is an improvement over RStudio."

"It provides a unified platform where you can install Jupyter, Python Spider, and other related tools without needing separate installations."

More Anaconda Business pros

"If you correctly use the product for your use cases, it provides value for money."

"It is a stable product."

"It's incredibly fast and can handle large volumes of data without slowing down our operations."

"The solution is fast."

"A well designed app brings freedom of inquiry to meetings, allowing me to answer questions in real time and this has transformed progress and outputs of our monthly group meeting."

"Once you open it up, you see everything that you can do."

"We can scale it if we need to."

"QlikView is a scalable solution that multiple users can easily use."

More QlikView pros

Cons

"Anaconda could benefit from improvement in its user interface to make it more attractive and user-friendly. Currently, it's boring."

"Having a small guide or video on the tool would help learn how to use it and what the features are."

"The solution would benefit from offering more automation."

"When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it."

"One feature that I would like to see is being able to use a different language in a different cell, which would allow me to mix R and Python together."

"The interface could be improved. Other solutions, like Visual Studio, have much better UI."

"One thing that hurts the product is that the company is not doing more to advertise it as a solution and make it more well known."

"Anaconda can't handle heavy workloads."

More Anaconda Business cons

"QlikView lacks self-service capabilities, which means users depend on the IT team to make changes."

"The product's visual capabilities could be improved. The graphs and visualizations are not as aesthetic or easy to create."

"QlikView is probably on the pricier side than other BI tools."

"If a user wanted to see something not included in the application the new object had to be created by a power user or developer because Qlik view's scripting has somewhat of a learning curve."

"I would want them to have more options as a user. It would be nice for them to create their own dashboards and add fields."

"Improvement in collaboration, between that and publishing of reports and publishing of models."

"I would like to see more advanced features from Qlik Sense integrated into QlikView to keep it competitive and up-to-date."

"It is really old. We are moving towards converting everything into a Power BI environment. We want to have a self-service type of BI environment where different levels of users in organizations can log onto a portal and retrieve the data they need or get the necessary insights for decision-making that's important for them or their business unit. They have built a new version of QlikView called QlikSense, which probably competes with newer BI tools, such as Power BI, but they are far behind. That's why we are moving towards a newer tool that's easier to use and has more visualizations to represent the data."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My company uses the free version of the tool. There is also a paid version of the tool available."

"Anaconda is free to use, but in terms of hardware costs, you might need heavy GPUs to run CUDA and other demanding tasks."

"The tool is open-source."

"The product is open-source and free to use."

"The licensing costs for Anaconda are reasonable."

"It has an annual license. It is expensive as compared to other competitive tools that do more for less. In South African rands, we pay about 100,000 to 200,000 a year."

"QlikView is a reasonably priced solution."

"It's reasonably priced and falls on the more affordable side."

"The pricing is too high compared to the other solutions on the market."

"It is not very expensive. I think it it is on par with other similar products on the market."

"The setup costs for QlikView are fair as are the yearly maintenance fees. The licensing becomes a bit more expensive and requires some planning for onboarding."

"Qlik is fairly high in terms of pricing."

"My firm got the product at a cheap price, but in general, I believe that the product is a bit costly."
