System for management reports and statistics, data analysis
What do you like best about the product?
A very powerful system that integrates with a large number of systems. In our case, it connects to the Adabas database through web services. The panels allow for a large number of configurations. It displays data both in tabular form and in graphical format.
What do you dislike about the product?
In general, experienced personnel are needed for its setup and operation, as well as a maintenance contract. When it has to handle a large amount of data, the system becomes somewhat unstable and operates slowly. The multitude of configuration options can sometimes overwhelm the end user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data analysis and operations control in the internal processing of the company. Long and medium-term decision making.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Hire support and maintenance as the configuration can be complex and problems may arise throughout the product's lifecycle.
Perfect for analyzing company data
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of use and the easy implementation of the product. The code development to create the application. The usability and visualization. The large community to resolve questions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The IDE for development (SQL section) must improve a lot to help the programmer. It lacks a CVS for version control.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Analyze sales data, logistics, stocks, quality of internal IT data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I 100% recommend this product over other BI tools for its ease of use and the speed with which it handles data analysis. The speed at which it displays the desired data.
Quick Access to needed project data
What do you like best about the product?
It is extremely easier for me to review my 40 projects all at once in one place when using Qlik.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have been using Qlik for about a year now since we converted and there is not much that I do not like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Accounting, Financial, Margin
Tricky product
What do you like best about the product?
Can create cool visuals and as advertised, linkage thru the visuals.
What do you dislike about the product?
Need to CODE to get fancy and does not work with lots of data that is changing frequently (e.g., daily dump data).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Trends. Tracking data. Comparisons.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
How large is your data? Are you using MS SQL data already?
Good experience with Qlik
What do you like best about the product?
Surely what I had like the most is the easiness of use, in terms of drilling each elements andh those soft colours that avoid the eye fatigue after many hours of use. I used this tool for months during my experience in the company and it was part of a software change from an oold one to a new one. I had to fight internally for the software Qlik choice but finally I had my reward with Qlik victory. Finally Qlik was chosen as new software of data intelligence by the company. It was a great one!
What do you dislike about the product?
I have to say that the font used could be greater and different. Look and feel is absolutely great but in terms of font there could be some improvements. Of course this is my opinion, not a general rule, but this could be an action point for the developers team. For example I have colleagues that really liked the font used by Qlik and it took at great discussions at the coffe machine about that. :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Surely we had a wider view of the data we were using. In the past we had other experiences with other vendor but we did not found those good points and continuous enhancements that Qlik offers to their customers. With its continuous releases with new periodic improvements me, my company and my colleagues could say that we really feel coddle by the Qlik group.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have a deep view of the other softwares benefit and make a deeper software selection in order to bring those benefits to your company.
Simply and really powerfull
What do you like best about the product?
Its very simply and visual. You can check a big quantity of data if its programmed properly with tables and grafics
What do you dislike about the product?
Only expert programmers can modify the data that you analyze. You only can view data not search all that you want
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Department results
Great built-in ETL component and fast response, makes this a great tool.
What do you like best about the product?
Working with several disparate and legacy data sources, we needed a tool that would help us unlock/untrap data and Qlik Sense’s built in ETL tools was the perfect fit. It is easy to add a complete variety of sources from different platforms and blend it all into locally-stored data models that make reloading and manipulating your data incredibly fast. I think the ETL tools completely out-perform established tools like Informatica Cloud in every way, from loading to transforming and even auto-scheduling.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few things I disagree with about Qlik, but mainly it is their pricing. The token model is not a good fit for us, we have many dedicated users who need their own token, so I feel like we are over-paying for these users. Also, like any software company out there, the slick selling of products based on future features is sneaky, but seems to be the industry norm. Be sure you are comfortable with their product roadmap before you sign.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had lots of trapped data that required software engineers to write custom SQL queries to get at, and thus our access to data was horribly slow. Qlik Sense allowed us the ability to get the data out quick, fast and cheap without revamping our entire legacy database platform. Now we have more data than our entire team could utilize building out reports and dashboards over the next 10 years. Be prepared to add a few analysts to do nothing but build apps and dashboards once you go live! As when users get a taste of what Qlik does on the visualization side, they will keep on asking for more.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start with the free trial tool, it is a fully functioning version. You will be amazed.
