Qlik Sense Reviews

This solution is an analytic platform and we are in the early stages of development for our data center.

There are a lot of features available in this solution, it has been very easy to use. We have found it to be less complex and user-friendly compared to other solutions we have used.

I have been using this solution for approximately three months.

The stability of this solution is very good.

The technical support is good.

We are currently using SAP and Qlik Sense.

The initial setup is simple.

The implementation is very easy, we did it ourselves.

I have evaluated other solutions.

My advice to others is to make sure they have a good technical team. We have found that a lot of the consultants go in and out of the business and sometimes you are left alone without assistance. We have been using two solutions simultaneously and I would not advise doing so, focus on one solution at a time.

I rate Qlik Sense an eight out of ten.

• Used by our business users for day to day reports
• Users build their own apps
• Users also consume apps built by the IT team.

Qlik has made our business users empowered to build their own reports with minimal IT intervention.

• Easy to use and learn: gets the users up and running with a basic training session
• Agile: quick to develop an app and iterate on
• Stable: stability with a large number of users.

All the above have made users very happy.

• More visualizations 
• Automated report delivery 
• Cross app data sharing 
• Easy app sharing options with specific users.

Great.

It's scalable but adds more coat.

Good so far.

No previous solutions.

Simple.

Vendor Axis. Good level of expertise.

Great.

• Setup time was very quick and easy
• The cost was similar to other vendors.

• Birst 
• Power BI
• Tableau 
• Oracle BI

We needed a secure, dynamic place for our branch staff to view details about their respective branches. Be it how they manage cash to how well they are performing with respect to their goals, Qlik Sense is an excellent tool for meeting all our various needs.

Qlik Sense is becoming the go-to place to view data. We are relying less on Excel, PowerPoint, etc.

Though, I haven't used them a lot. I love the variables feature. Placing buttons on my sheets creates a unique user experience and clears up clutter at the same time.

I am not really a fan of the set analysis. It's its own language that doesn't quite make a whole lot of sense to me at this point. I wish it were more intuitive.

Visualising manufacturing related data for different departments. We have created dashboards for accounts receivable, department-wise spend, inventory, sales, and production.

Qlik has made life easier by visualising data. Most of the data was not being used. It was just sitting in the database. With Qlik, we are able to make use of it.

• User-friendly
• The time it takes to deliver a dashboard is real "Quik".
• Can pull the data from different sources.
• Scalable

Data modelling automation needs improvement. 

There are some tools like Alteryx, which are used for data preparation. These features can be built into Qlik to make the process smoother.

Quick reporting.

Logistics work more efficient in real-time data.

More options for the layout.

The solution is worth it.

We did not.

Keep following the chosen direction.

Extensions have been particularly useful in my opinion. The reason being you can simply find out if there are any other external graphs or charts out there that have been built by the community and you can simply add them into your dashboard. One nifty extension that I've discovered recently was developed by the folks at NarrativeScience (https://www.narrativescience.com/), which adds context to the diagram you have.

We've deployed to many of our internal stakeholders and they simply love it, due to the simplicity and ease of use. From the development side, we enjoyed using it because you can easily visualize the data that you have into something consumable to the business users.

The one thing that I'd like to see added is the ability to store back data into the database based on the selections a user has made. For example, if I have segmented my consumers by certain dimensions using the dashboard, I'd like to be able to store my selected segments directly to the database instead of having to export the list out via PDF or XLSX.

I've been using it for about a year now.

The only issue with scalability that I can see is that you can't export more than 1,000,000 cells at a time.

I was not involved in deployment. The setup of the desktop version, however, is your standard Windows installation process - nothing fancy.

We evaluated Tableau and Qlik View prior to using Qlik Sense. The reason we didn't use Tableau was its limitation from the extension perspective: It wasn't able to produce the sort of graph that we wanted. QlikView and Qlik Sense did have the graph we needed via it's extension feature, but we deemed Qlik Sense to be more visually appealing and thus opted for the latter (plus it's also much cheaper).

As a fairly new user working in a Sales and Marketing environment within the Hospitality industry, I use Qlik Sense primarily as a tool for visualization. It provides a view of our complex business model which consists of multiple BUs running in different sales environments.

So far, Qlik Sense hasn't improved much in the organization that I work for. We only just began the process of digitalizing our reporting and analytics with its counterpart, QlikView. The business user environment is still too data-illiterate to be able to work with Qlik Sense autonomously.

Qlik Sense makes it very easy to build interactive presentations for meetings. It has really nice graphical representations of complex material, making it easy to understand for the business users. Overall, it is very intuitive and easy for business users.

The AI of Qlik Sense "proposing" solutions is also helpful.

Qlik Sense is constantly being improved upon, updates and new product features are regularly released.

It would be nice to have more native features from QlikView built into Qlik Sense.

Better control over Pivot tables, which should be made more customizable especially in terms of Totals, would be an improvement.

We have been using Qlik Sense for less than six months.

Applications designed to provide fast and reliable access to financial reports and client profile analysis.

• It provides the ability to integrate our applications with ERP web-based frameworks. 
• It also gives us the opportunity to develop our apps to be used on mobile smartphones and tablets.

The fast and intuitive interactivity of charts and dashboards and the ability to create your own stories in a report.

Better visualization options on charts such as pivot tables, and better control over total lines in the pivot and straight tables without the need to download extensions to accomplish this task.

We use QlikView at the moment, but QlikSense is more modern and can be integrated with web-based systems.
