Qlik Sense Reviews

• · Enhanced data profiling – Improved profiling and auto creation of geographic data, plus smarter algorithms for identifying associations

  · More powerful data prep – New graphical capability for loading pivot tables, pre-filtering of data, and a more powerful scripting environment

  · User experience improvements – A new UI theme, drag-and-drop coloring, and improved search performance

It has empowered business users. Less dependence on IT for reports and analytical charts.

Being able to share and modifying on the fly can be improved.

I've only recently started using QlikSense. Now its been 9 months-it is amazing and intuitive, very easy to use.

No issues encountered.

It's excellent.

It's very good.

We switched because of the ease of use and it's ability to update on the fly.

It was straightforward.

We implemented it in-house.

It's to early for us to tell, but it's very exciting.

It didn't cost us anything to setup or use on a day to day basis.

QlikSense is really intuitive, easy to use and implement with very rich graphics. Adding the ability to share print and export is a great plus in v2.0.

I built a pilot in QlikSense for an existing customer with QlikView.

I had to learn all about QlikSense in a short period to develop a complete application. It was very easy and fun for me to jump into a new version of Qlik.

Currently, I love QlikSense and I continue learning about it.

With QlikSense, our company can tackle some projects that we never could have before. We are improving all areas or departments and we are building a real data-driven philosophy around data and the power of information. A lot of tasks are now very easy, whereas previously they were impossible.

The most valuable feature of QlikSense is that you can capture the data without modifying it and then perform the ETL (extract, transform, and load) process. It is all much faster and safer. In addition, it is also easy to connect to any type of data source.

Currently, we are not very happy with the iPad or iPhone app because it is not working as we want. It is not very friendly and we very often have login errors.

GeoAnalytics is getting better in each version, but from my point of view, GeoAnalytics has a lot of points to improve.

I use this solution to provide my organization with a self-service BI Tool. This tool not only allows for the consumption of the data in a visual way but also allows the user to modify the question to get new answers. This tool is used mainly to show the company data and KPIs using perspectives that are unique to the user.

Qlik Sense has inspired the users to question the data more. They are interested in making sure there is data quality in the sources and has helped make some quick decisions without the need to do repeat analysis. Qlik has saved users time and lowered the number of requests for analysts to perform ad-hoc reporting.

I think all of the features in Qlik Sense are vital to the product. I enjoy being able to use the ETL features, as well as the front-end scripting (set-analysis). The most valuable feature is that all pieces work together as a platform that allows you to easily provide BI solutions.

The product could be improved by implementing a user-feedback ranking system. This would inspire the new development to be prioritized by the community so that the most requested features would come first. Power BI (Microsoft) currently uses this solution.

Our primary use case is making dashboards for customers.

This solution has improved our organization by making our analysis results available to customers.

The most valuable feature is the drag and drop dashboard creation.

A valuable improvement for this solution would be the enabling of us to host dashboards for our customers.

• Developing dashboards for departments to track progress.
• Automating recurring processes to save time and money.
• Offering intricate data analysis to drive business decisions.

We have been able to present data about our company and membership in ways that has never been seen before. On the fly questions can be answered with the "Qlik" of a button and drive forward discussions about policy, mission, and goals. This is now a thing of the present, not of the future.

GeoAnalytics is the most useful feature. The Master Items and the ability to change colors and themes based on expressions are also useful features. We can use either from an immediate data upload from CSV or Excel, or we can load them from our own databases.

Ultra-customization: It needs no limits on which charts can have x amount of dimensions, y amount of measures, z amount of color expressions, etc. Sometimes, it is frustrating when I want to add a field to an existing chart, only to find that it cannot be added and it requires a new chart type.

The overall ability to build quick wins with simple data to drive insights.

We are still new in rolling out dashboards. We still have an estimated 9,500 hours worth of data discovery and application building based on our needs assessment with internal business clients.

Dates. My goodness, working with dates in set analysis can be a nightmare! Much room for improvement.

One year.

Yes, we are still working to get things set up properly with our nodes and load balancing.

No issues.

No issues.

An eight out of 10.

An eight out of 10.

No

Complex, multi-node environment, with security certificate errors. I went to upgrade and had to wipe everything, then start fresh. Issues were non-allowed characters were in our password.

We used a vendor team for installation. Their expertise was a seven out of 10.

Not applicable.

Start small with tokens. You can always buy more.

Yes, Tableau, Alteryx, and Microsoft Power BI.

It is worth the frustration, but do not underestimate the difficulty of working with dates in set analysis.

• Ease of use
• Storytelling

It provides insight into data never achieved with the use of traditional tools such as Excel.

• Font management

I have used it for six months.

We have not encountered any deployment issues so far.

To date, we have not encountered any stability issues.

To date, we have not encountered any scalability issues.

Customer service is excellent.

Technical support is excellent.

• Excel-based reporting to more engaging tools such as Qlik

Initial setup was pretty straightforward.

A third-party consultant helped with the installation.

We are still in the process of measuring ROI.

I don't have enough experience to address pricing and licensing at this time.

Before choosing, we only experimented with Qlik.

It's an easy-to-use solution that gives business users incredible insight into your business.

• Connect to multiple sources of data without needing ETL prior to load
• Ability to create complex data joins within the script
• ETL features
• Ability to do complex data representation (set analysis)
• Ease of opening documents and connecting to data sources
• Ease of creating dashboard objects
• Smart search
• Associative search
• Storyboarding
• Scalability
• Responsive design

It needs to allow for customization of the dashboard objects and tabs. They should add more chart options, which are still very limited. You have to use a lot of APIs to make up for the limitations. Also, I’d like to see live connections.

I have been using it for six months.

Chart legends as well as the axis titles disappear when charts are not full size.

Customer service and technical support are very good.

Initial setup simplicity or complexity depends on the project and the systems already in place. As for the tool itself, initial setup is straightforward.

I have implemented it in-house and with a vendor team. Business needs need to be fully understood and documented. Most of the issues have always been data related. The development team and the business HAVE to get a full understanding of what the data is, where it is stored, and how it is stored. BUSINESS RULES and a DATA DICTIONARY are a must.

Among Tableau, QlikView, and Qlik Sense, I prefer QlikView, due to its higher customization capabilities, its associative nature, and its ETL features.

Standardization in design/development is crucial. FULL communication and documentation with EVERYONE is needed. I don’t know how much time has been lost or efforts duplicated because of a lack of all this.
