We performed a comparison between QlikView and Sisense based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Reporting solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The initial setup is not very complex."
"The user interface and dashboards are very good."
"We use QlikView for its cost-effectiveness and ease of integration with databases."
"The most valuable feature of QlikView is the integration with other third-party tools."
"It is useful to use a tool like this to have a view of data at a point in time. You can extract and create little data sets that you can store, and then over time, you can have a view for tracking changes. Especially when you work with a relational database or a database that's a production database, the data is dynamic, but if you use QlikView, you can take a snapshot of different datasets. In your own time, you can then get insights and report, build, analyze, and draw whatever you need from the data, which is quite useful."
"The most valuable aspect is its extensive library on Microsoft, providing a robust framework for implementation."
"I had the option to prepare data myself instead of always having to depend on the data team."
"The scalability is there."
"Ability to work with very large data sources without the limitations of Excel."
"No issues with stability. It is a very stable solution."
"Support is very responsive and clearly one of the strengths of Sisense. I have always received a fast response and the staff is very helpful."
"Visually displaying data."
"Allows users to build their own solutions without as much reliance on technology staff."
"ElastiCube Manager is a very easy to use ETL tool, which includes the ability to easily transform raw data into reusable data."
"The solution's technical support team is good."
"I have found the dashboard creating feature helpful."
"There is a lack of static PDF report generation and automatic resizing of the dashboard to fit the device."
"It would be nice if QlikView could be plugged in into the company's website or an online portal such as QlikSense is capable of. There are ways around but it takes enormous time to develop."
"They could improve the speed."
"Though the initial setup phase is simple, when it comes to the integration with the custom systems, the configuration and the compatibility sometimes take some more time."
"They should offer the capability to directly access data from SaaS environments, as it would simplify the migration process, and while it may seem like a minor enhancement, it would be beneficial to our clients."
"I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase."
"The only thing I would improve about it is the fact that it refreshes all the time, and when it does that, it just deletes all the options you had, all the filters that you had selected, so you need to select them from the beginning."
"There is no automation or drag and drop functionality."
"They should improve the filters to create downloaded data by moving them to the top of the dashboard."
"The administrative side of Sisense is a little cumbersome and confusing."
"The solution's setup process could be easier."
"I would love to have more customization capabilities for building dashboards, especially in creating custom widget sizes."
"At present there are additional costs involved if we wish to share our data queues within this solution, which we would like to see removed."
"Larger datasets will sometimes give a "Accumulated logs" error when trying to make minor changes. T"
"This solution does not have tabs. In order to have tabs, you have to download an add-on to mimic the tabs. They should be integrated to improve the solution."
"I would also like to be able to run a bursts of reports based on different field values with PDF output right in the tool, rather than filtering on each field value and generating each PDF manually."
