Executive SummaryUpdated on Mar 4, 2025

QlikView and Zoho Analytics compete in the business intelligence tools category. Zoho Analytics has the upper hand for smaller businesses and those already using Zoho products due to its affordability and ease of use.

Features: QlikView's notable features include patented Associative Query Logic (AQL) for fast in-memory analysis, a built-in ETL engine, and extensive partner networks aiding in self-service reporting. Zoho Analytics offers strong integration capabilities with APIs, affordability, and seamless cloud access, making it an excellent choice for integrating with other Zoho products.

Room for Improvement: QlikView's scalability issues arise from its dependency on RAM and the need for skilled IT professionals for implementation. Its scripting and reporting require a more intuitive design. Zoho Analytics could enhance its analytical capabilities by adding more statistical functions and graph types, and improve its graphical features.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: QlikView is mainly deployed on-premises with robust support through consultants, although the availability can vary by location. Zoho Analytics offers flexible cloud and hybrid deployment options and is lauded for excellent customer service with proactive follow-ups and direct client communication.

Pricing and ROI: QlikView is considered expensive with varied licensing models and additional costs for features like ERP integration. Its ROI is challenging to quantify but generally seen in time savings. Zoho Analytics, with a straightforward and economical pricing model, offers a rapid ROI with flexible monthly fees based on usage, making it appealing to smaller businesses.

While Power BI uses Power Query, an intuitive and powerful tool that allows data manipulation in any way, Zoho Analytics has limitations.

Having to pay for 25 users when only 11 are needed creates an issue with the pricing structure.

Setup Cost

QlikView pricing is variable and can be costly, but strategic planning can maximize ROI for organizations.

Zoho Analytics provides cost-effective pricing with flexible billing, competitive against Tableau and Power BI for budget-conscious enterprises.

The license cost per user or per year for QlikView is about 500 Euros annually.

Morne Ayres

I would rate the pricing for QlikView as not cheap, but it is reasonable.

Featured Reviews

Morne Ayres

Managing Director at Hurricnae

Rapid development and flexibility transform commercial decision-making processes

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, considering that you're losing a lot of customers to Power BI. Reducing costs is the main improvement needed, as this is the biggest burden currently faced in the South African market, with Microsoft converting QlikView customers due to the perceived cost reduction. I am aware of several big corporations, such as Sanofi and Aspen Pharmacare, which have left QlikView due to cost issues.

Vedhanayagam R

Data Analyst at Mobolution

Has supported trend analysis and forecasting but needs major fixes in customization and reliability

There are some areas where Zoho Analytics needs improvement compared to Power BI. Uploading and interpreting data inside the interface needs enhancement. While Power BI uses Power Query, an intuitive and powerful tool that allows data manipulation in any way, Zoho Analytics has limitations. I usually prepare data in Excel before uploading it to Zoho Analytics. The charts in Zoho Analytics are not as customizable as in Power BI. While all chart types are available, they can only be modified at a basic level, not an advanced level. Though trend analysis features are provided, creating anything out of the box is challenging.
