Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Business users have been able to use the BI self-serve model."
"Qlik Sense is a very powerful and useful tool."
"The extensibility of the Platform with either internally created extensions or the use of third-party provided items really opens the platform up."
"This solution has improved our organization by making our analysis results available to customers."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable feature is flexibility."
"All the necessary information is available to everyone in real time."
"The changes in a dashboard are very easy."
"The ability to create a real-time data mark, using just one piece of software, is the best feature of this product."
"It's scalable."
"It’s stable and straightforward."
"The out-of-the-box features are simple and easy to use across the board."
"From a scalability standpoint, I would say it's pretty fantastic."
"Spotfire is excellent for scientific applications, especially because of its integration with RNG."
"The solution is an affordable one."
"One of the main features is integrated statistical analysis."
"Multi-server deployment: not just cloud, but on premise too, and hybrid. Needs lighter protocols to communicate between the different services and with the clients."
"Integrated maps should become part of the Qlik Sense, as opposed to buying an additional module just to power the BI, which has it built-in natively within the application."
"More options for the layout."
"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."
"The navigation is quite clunky and outdated."
"Reload failure alerts on the application within the Qlik Management Console without any use of extensions. QlikView is able to handle these alerts directly through the QlikView Management Console. We would appreciate a similar solution that is easy to set up and use. Simple formatting options in the pivot and straight tables such as adjusting line thickness and font selection and size."
"The one thing I would probably try to add is some kind of tutorial since the tool has a lot of options to work with, and for someone who is just starting and does not have any prior experience, it can be a little overwhelming."
"We need more types of visualizations."
"The design of the UI could be improved."
"Compared to competitors, the UI is quite dated."
"The initial setup can be difficult."
"We would like to see some improvement in the default properties of the solution, so that there is less need for us to spend our time coding."
"We would like to see some development in the visualization aspect of this solution, as they can currently only be configured in the cloud, which limits us to one endpoint. It would be helpful if this could be integrated with other tools."
"The number of charts available out of the box in Spotfire can be enhanced."
"We would like an easier way to get the product to the cloud. Right now, we have the on-premise version, and we would like to find a way to make it easier to migrate it over to the cloud."
"I would like to see the visualization library in this solution expanded, so that I can increase what I can offer to our clients."
