Excellent for budgeting and forecasting, but long-term it will no longer be developed or supported
The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble. Additionally, I think we underestimated the time for deployment, we thought it would be a few months and it took much longer than expected because the consultants didn't understand our process in detail before committing to the process. On a scale of one to ten, I would give Hubble a seven.

Unlocks actionable insights through user-friendly analysis features
The self-service capabilities that Qlik Sense offers are significant. They offer natural language processing, allowing users to ask questions in layman language, and Qlik Sense will create charts and narratives automatically. Users can access any dashboard developed in Qlik Sense from familiar portals such as Okta or other company portals through embedding features. The integration with chatbots, particularly Microsoft Teams, allows users to access dashboards and ask questions directly within Teams. The collaboration feature enables users to share analysis by taking snapshots and tagging team members within the Qlik Sense interface, eliminating the need for lengthy emails or screenshots. The storytelling feature allows users to create presentations directly in Qlik Sense using dashboard analysis, making it easier to answer questions during meetings. The subscription feature enables users to receive charts and sheets via email instead of navigating to the dashboard, facilitating monitoring purposes. Qlik Sense offers alerting capabilities where users can set thresholds for KPIs and receive notifications when these thresholds are reached. The platform also includes AI/ML features for predictive modeling through a no-code component, allowing business users to create and deploy AutoML models without depending on data scientists. The Qlik Answers component, featuring generative AI capability, enables users to get answers from unstructured data including Excel, HTML documents, or Microsoft Word documents by creating a knowledge base. The user-friendly interface operates on a drag-and-drop approach, with Qlik Sense suggesting appropriate charts based on selected dimensions and measures. The associative engine capabilities allow data association between tables, implementing selections across related tables. The platform uses a color-coding system (white, gray, and dark gray) to show related, excluded, and unrelated data selections, providing insights beyond traditional BI tools.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Being able to create calculations, hierarchies, aging buckets, etc. has reduced the Excel reports we used to have."
"We have saved hours of Excel work producing the same results, which Hubble gives in minutes."
"The most valuable features are both its budgeting and forecasting."
"The most valuable features are both its budgeting and forecasting."
"Reporting was dramatically improved."
"Hubble will truly blow you away once you get to know the product and the people behind it."
"Showing a miniature version of the chart if the case chart is bigger than the screen resolution allows us to have full context at all times."
"Qlik Sense has given us the ability to load large log files and provide analytics."
"We have deployed Qlik Sense to many of our internal stakeholders and they simply love it, due to the simplicity and ease of use."
"Qlik was the first company to implement an in-memory associative analytics engine. This basically means that all data is loaded into memory, but it also means that instead of joining data together, the data is associated together. From the front end, from the UI point of view, data can be joined or included or excluded on the fly. It can be drilled down and drilled through and users can slice and dice it and that type of thing can be done from anywhere in the data to any other place in the data. It doesn't have to be predefined. It doesn't have to have hierarchies or anything like that."
"With the changing business landscape, it is nice to access Qlik Sense through an external website. As an organization when we use QlikView Desktop, we need to connect to our internal network. We can access QlikView through the QlikView access point but the website has a little different look and feel than the desktop application."
"The time it takes to deliver a dashboard is real quick."
"The fast and intuitive interactivity of charts and dashboards and the ability to create your own stories in a report."
"Set analysis is a powerful scripting functionality which calculates complex queries into simple terms."
 

Cons

"The only thing I may add is that it can get a little pricey when you add annual maintenance."
"Exporting to Excel takes a lot of time when broken into sheets/files."
"When exporting to Excel, it is values only."
"We have been advised by the owners that the budgeting tool is no longer going to be supported with future development, so my recommendation would be for them to continue to invest in development. Otherwise, at some point we will have to migrate to another technology."
"The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble."
"There were stability issues. The former synchronized persistence failed and caused database corruption."
"Report generation without the need for NPrinting, which has limited capabilities anyway, would be an improvement."
"The support aspect could be improved, particularly in terms of response time for high-priority issues, especially when dealing with production environment client issues that require immediate attention."
"More focus needs to be on data streaming/real-time data reporting. This is currently too slow to use outside of very small data sets."
"On-premise, if things are not working well I need to rebuild some parts of the dashboard."
"One area of improvement is that it doesn't offer an API for accessing processed data stored in the QED files."
"Branding is not the product's strongest point. More control over the presentation colors would be great. A basic printing function would also be good. Easy connection to external tools like R Server would be nice."
"It would be great if decentralized teams would have more features to manage the metadata on the dashboards, setup the specific user access rights and rules to govern incoming and outgoing data sets from/to other teams, and more features to separate the different data process layers (e.g. extraction, transformation [data quality, business rules])."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Costs are a little high on the license/token side. However, if you look at the TCO, it is not too bad, particularly against Power BI."
"Ultimately, the cost is low, and it implements fast. The limiting factor is how quickly your staff can keep up."
"Qlik Sense is pretty good in terms of price."
"Qlik Sense and its pricing model can follow any scalability."
"I believe pricing is similar to other products in the same category, if you have it on-premise."
"QlikSense offers a Hybrid environment architecture, which is very cost effective based on where the enterprise data resides."
"The product is expensive compared to one of its competitors."
"Licensing can start to get expensive, but compared to other tools in this space it is about average."

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Qlik Sense?
It is not about performance. It is just about how expensive it is to implement.
