"It's a stable, reliable product."
"It is really old. We are moving towards converting everything into a Power BI environment. We want to have a self-service type of BI environment where different levels of users in organizations can log onto a portal and retrieve the data they need or get the necessary insights for decision-making that's important for them or their business unit. They have built a new version of QlikView called QlikSense, which probably competes with newer BI tools, such as Power BI, but they are far behind. That's why we are moving towards a newer tool that's easier to use and has more visualizations to represent the data."
"There is no automation or drag and drop functionality."
"QlikView certainly lacks in its ability to share visualizations or create visualizations easily."
"This solution would be improved with the inclusion of a feature that would allow us to add a common library of (our) commands used in load scripts and expressions, so with a keyword, we would get a drop down to select the command we are looking for, as opposed to the generic help."
"The tool is expensive in Turkey."
"The user interface and ease of use takes a bit of a learning curve to pick up."
"There could be a feature to analyze the sales and accounting data of the client."
"Needs improvement with UI transparency."
"I haven't come across any missing features."
"The product is expensive and needs the integration of more languages."
"The reason we haven't rolled it out across the board is due to the fact that the licensing is so expensive."
"The charts and tables could use better sorting, primarily using other variables than the ones on the figure. If they could implement views like in the older version (previous to Viya), it would be very nice."
"There is room for improvement in anti-money laundering prevention and operation monitoring, as well as operation monitoring surveillance."
"The installation process can be a bit complex."
"The deployment isn't smooth. Deploying Visual Analytics on the cloud takes a lot of work, or you can use some providers that give you SAS as a service. For example, there is a provider called SaasNow. They host SAS Visual Analytics and the license. You can buy the license and deploy it there without the hassle of installation because deploying the software isn't easy."
"In Brazil, there are few documents, courses, and other resources for studying and implementing the tool."
