Room For Improvement

Anaconda Business faces performance, stability, and interface challenges, with users seeking better documentation, support, integration, and more affordable pricing.
QlikView's outdated interface, scalability issues, and high costs drive users towards modern tools like Tableau, Power BI, and Qlik Sense.
They should enhance the security point of view; it's good, but it needs some more advanced features.
Anaconda Business can be improved by offering faster package updates, an enhanced user interface, better cloud integration, more detailed analytics, and improved collaboration tools.
The pricing should be a little lower for a single person to use, as it might be affordable for an organization, but for my single use, it is difficult.
In QlikView, I believe the improvement that should be made is to bring the costs down, as you'll have to be competitive with Power BI, aiming for at least a 30% reduction to stop the hemorrhaging to Power BI.
 

Setup Cost

Anaconda is cost-effective with free core use, though additional costs for demanding tasks may be significant.
QlikView's pricing varies significantly, with high setup and user costs compared to Power BI and SAP Crystal Reports.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is a little costly, but it is useful.
Anaconda is an open-source tool, so I do not pay anything for it.
My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing indicates that it is a bit costly, but it is useful.
The license cost per user or per year for QlikView is about 500 Euros annually.
 

Valuable Features

Anaconda Business streamlines data science with integrated tools, package management, security, and collaboration, boosting productivity and innovation.
QlikView offers dynamic dashboards, self-service BI, and rapid data visualization with its Associative Query Logic and user-friendly interface.
Anaconda Business has positively impacted my organization because, when discussing the security point of view, it's exceptional; when comparing it to other solutions, Anaconda Business is superior.
Anaconda Business provides a 60 to 70% faster environment setup, zero security incidents, lower compliance costs, and better productivity.
We find the advanced security, governance, and collaborative features for organizations using Python and R particularly useful.
The best features in QlikView are rapid development, the fact that I can do what I want in QlikView, and full control along with ease of use.

Featured Reviews

Karthik Ganiga - PeerSpot reviewer
Has improved compliance workflows and reduced setup time with secure package management
The best features Anaconda Business offers in my experience include a secured package repository, vulnerability scanning, team collaboration tools, and enterprise integration, license, and user tracking. The repository feature of Anaconda Business ensures that only trusted, verified Python or R packages can be used, and for integration and licensing, it helps to meet compliance requirements that we need, mainly aiding in safe, controlled, and easy Python or R management for enterprise data. Anaconda Business positively impacts our organization by protecting us from compliance and security risks while keeping the environment consistent, allowing our team to focus on insight and innovation instead of worrying about setups, security, and software issues. Anaconda Business provides a 60 to 70% faster environment setup, zero security incidents, lower compliance costs, and better productivity.
Arjun Meda - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
