Riyaz Halani - PeerSpot reviewer
Powerful BI tool for analyzing financial performance and stable performance
I would rate the scalability of Jedox a seven out of ten. There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself. So that's where the main improvements lie—making it easy for people to not depend on just technical finance teams. There are almost 50 to 60 users using Jedox in our organization.

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

"We can configure and have complete freedom while creating solutions."
"The ease of reporting is one of Jedox's most valuable features."
"The ETL function simplifies many tasks."
"The ETL itself was pretty useful and it's integrated in the tenant itself. So the Olap service technology was impressive to me. In order to extract that and load it in the tube in the same tenant or the same tool that was something magnificent because I actually missed this in SEB. SEB requires another tool, and you have to integrate all the tools together. But for Jedox, it was in the one tool."
"The main strength of Jedox lies in mastering the navigation, especially the Excel add-in."
"The solution is very versatile."
"We use the tool for performance management and planning."
"The Excel interface is designed to retrieve data from the database and send it back, which is a significant advantage."
"QlikView is extremely flexible in terms of visualization tools for communicating complex data insights."
"The most valuable feature of QlikView is the integration with other third-party tools."
"QlikView is a scalable solution that multiple users can easily use."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The user interface and dashboards are very good."
"It's incredibly fast and can handle large volumes of data without slowing down our operations."
"If you correctly use the product for your use cases, it provides value for money."
"Once you open it up, you see everything that you can do."
 

Cons

"From a development perspective, there's room for improvement in the area called the designer, where you actually build your reports to make it easier to manage the process."
"There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself."
"The solution should enable a modern look and feel in the front end."
"There is not much training for Jedox."
"Visualization is something they need to improve. We have already told them about this, and they should be working on it."
"I don't find it particularly user-friendly."
"Jedox should improve the design and server issues."
"I think it's the design of the report because the design and the UI for the report is standard and lame. When you see a Jedox report, it doesn't seem like it's from today, because the technology is something from the last decade. The scalability needs improvement."
"The user interface is old."
"The user interface and ease of use takes a bit of a learning curve to pick up."
"There is a challenge on the frontend when it comes to browsing data through QlikView, as it isn't entirely compatible with other platforms we use."
"QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly."
"QlikView is probably on the pricier side than other BI tools."
"They could improve the update time."
"Scalability really depends on the size of your data and QlikView server architecture. For the biggest data sets, it could become an issue at some point."
"There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We paid a one-time fee, which included product purchase, licensing, and first-time implementation. We are paying for the maintenance regularly."
"The solution's pricing is specific to your requirements."
"If you are using SAP, then you will have to take an SAP Connector license. The license across the tool is paying for the people who are using it as an admin or as a normal user. They can work out those costs in a manner that can help. This can also be a point of improvement where they can work out the costing, and the developers have a specific licensing cost. The normal users, who are going to do probably data entry or just going to view the dashboard, can have a separate license cost."
"The product’s pricing will not be suitable for setting up a small solution."
"Excellent value for money."
"Jedox was a bit cheaper compared to Calumo."
"The platform's pricing is considered quite expensive, particularly given the dollar-based pricing."
"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten."
"My firm got the product at a cheap price, but in general, I believe that the product is a bit costly."
"QlikView pricing and licensing is on the high side for a small sized company, but it's competitive among its peers."
"QlikView is a reasonably priced solution."
"The pricing is moderate, in the medium price range."
"It's reasonably priced and falls on the more affordable side."
"It is not very expensive. I think it it is on par with other similar products on the market."

What do you like most about QlikView?
If you correctly use the product for your use cases, it provides value for money.
What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for QlikView?
The license cost per user or per year for QlikView is about 500 Euros annually, and since we are South African-based, that needs to be multiplied.
What needs improvement with QlikView?
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 t...
