ROI

Sentiment score
5.7
Domo enhances efficiency, decision-making, and revenue growth, though some face limited returns due to high costs or underutilization.
Sentiment score
6.3
Companies achieve quick and substantial ROI with Qlik Sense, citing cost savings, increased revenue, and enhanced decision-making efficiency.
If you're actually using Domo at a very limited case and you're being charged $20,000, we've seen ROI there, but once it goes really high, you really need to check your metrics and check your profit.
Founder & CEO at AI-OT
In my organization, we moved from OBI to Qlik Sense due to limitations with OBI, resulting in very high ROI.

6.7
Domo's customer and technical support is generally praised but needs improvement in responsiveness, especially for complex issues.
Sentiment score
5.3
Users appreciate Qlik Sense stability, community resources, and consulting services, despite mixed reviews on technical support response times.
No matter how complex the problem is, it can be taken care of by the support team.
Data Analyst at Anonymous
They were quite professional and in around three to five working days, they had identified where they suspected there was an issue and I was able to fix it.
Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks
It's very easy to get technical support from Domo.
Chief Technology Officer ☆ Chief Product Officer ☆ Fractional CTO ☆ Board Advisor at a manufacturing company with 1-10 employees
While tech support is comprehensive, the stability of Qlik Sense means I generally do not need it.
Director Software Engineer at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
Technical support requires improvement.
Associate Director at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
In Turkey, the consultant firms are very professional, and they support you.

Scalability Issues

Sentiment score
6.2
Domo supports large-scale data and user roles, but some users experience technical challenges with ETL processes and storage limits.
Sentiment score
7.7
Qlik Sense efficiently scales with ease of adding RIM nodes, though licensing is costly, favored by large enterprises.
The fact that you're able to easily identify the pipelines or flows that have errors, and it notifies you when you're building a pipeline where you can run previews and tell where to fix issues, is helpful.
Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks
When fetching files larger than 100 MB from SFTP or any other portal, Domo becomes slow due to the heavy file size.
Assistant Manager at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
Everything comes under the same umbrella and it's pretty user-friendly.
Data Analyst at Anonymous
It performs well in terms of performance and load compared to others.
Associate Director at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Qlik Sense helps analyze data and can handle larger amounts of data compared to other BI tools.

Stability Issues

Sentiment score
6.6
Domo is praised for reliable data handling, minimal downtime, and efficiency, though some encounter occasional server connectivity issues.
Sentiment score
7.6
Qlik Sense is highly stable with reliable performance, minor setup issues, but excellent support and consistent updates.
In recent years, I haven't had such cases. It's quite stable and I don't have any reservations on its stability.
Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks
In terms of overall stability of the platform, it's very stable.
Chief Technology Officer ☆ Chief Product Officer ☆ Fractional CTO ☆ Board Advisor at a manufacturing company with 1-10 employees
During that time, we faced issues from the project side as Domo was not visible in our portal.
Assistant Manager at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
The stability is very good.
Associate Director at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
 

Room For Improvement

Domo users face data management and integration challenges, need better visualization, real-time processing, and improved UI and collaboration features.
Qlik Sense needs enhanced statistical functions, data integration, ETL, customization, visualization, governance, efficiency, and user-friendly interfaces.
End users require a license to run their own reports and dashboards, which are fairly expensive.
Technical Project Manager at a educational organization with 201-500 employees
Some technical aspects such as Beast Mode calculation could be improved in Domo, as it would provide more clarity and help in giving insights to clients or customer business team requirements.
Senior Engineer at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
One of the areas where we've had frustrations with Domo is the aesthetics. The aesthetics are quite limited compared to other BI tools such as Tableau and Power BI.
Analytics Manager at KOKO Networks
Power BI has better visualizations and interactions with updates in 2023 that provide ease of use.
Business Intelligence Architect at a financial services firm with 5,001-10,000 employees
Providing an API feature to access data from the dashboard or QEDs could be beneficial.
Director Software Engineer at a computer software company with 10,001+ employees
There should be more comprehensive documentation and explanatory videos available to help clients understand and calculate capacity-based pricing, making it easier to predict costs before implementing Qlik Sense Cloud.

Setup Cost

Domo's pricing is higher but seen as valuable for its features, with flexible models and negotiable terms encouraged.
Qlik Sense offers competitive pricing with flexible, scalable licensing, offsetting initial costs for enterprises considering its fast implementation.
Domo's pricing is high compared to other BI tools, and it is costly.
Senior Engineer at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
For long-time users, it can become expensive, but the trade-off is access to the entire platform instead of licensing different components separately.
Chief Technology Officer ☆ Chief Product Officer ☆ Fractional CTO ☆ Board Advisor at a manufacturing company with 1-10 employees
They quoted approximately one dollar per KB.
Assistant Manager at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
It is just about how expensive it is to implement.
student at a educational organization with 1,001-5,000 employees
Compared to Power BI, it is definitely costly.
Associate Director at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Among the BI tools and data analytics tools, Qlik is the most expensive.

Qlik Sense excels in user-friendly data visualization, rapid integration, and insightful analytics with advanced features like GeoAnalytics and AI.
App Studio is valuable because it allows all the customization we needed; we can decode it, with the view and grid which are all I need, drill-downs, and everything can be done the way I need it.

Have improved workflow efficiency through custom reports but encountered formatting limitations
The downsides of Domo are that we don't have a feature in the same column. When data comes in a time format, text format, and number format, we cannot segregate and create conditional formatting in that column. If in the future they develop this feature, it will benefit more users. Domo requires maintenance on my end, such as updates. I am maintaining some dashboards on a weekly basis and monthly basis daily reports. Because we need to upload in SFTP, we cannot schedule or auto-schedule due to rate purposes. We manually handle the data sets. If there were an option to reduce the cost, it would be easier to access.

In-memory data storage boosts performance
The advantages compared to other BI tools show architectural differences. The main feature is that it keeps all the data in memory. It doesn't retrieve the data from data sources when I need it on the dashboard; instead, it quickly provides the desired data, making it very fast compared to other BI tools. The ROI is very high using Qlik Sense. It offers many benefits of BI. It is flexible from a developer's point of view, allowing me to accomplish many tasks compared to other BI tools. From an end-user perspective, it's convenient and performance-oriented, providing something meaningful from all the organization's data.

I  think you should first decide which budget you can allocate for it.You can find "free' tools like Google Looker Studio, which have limited reporting and email capabilities. I assume other cloud vendors have similar "free" tools.Other reporting tools can cost from 10's $ per user per month to 100K$ for a year and more.There is also an open-source tool named Superset
