Find out what your peers are saying about Tableau, Qlik, Splunk and others in Data Visualization."It allows you to create a new column using split on a current column, which we find very useful."
"The flexibility of Qlik Sense and the addition of 3rd party extensions allow us to extend the use of Qlik Sense beyond analytics and bring the platform to the core of our digital workplace, augmenting analytics with workflow, and team collaboration."
"All the necessary information is available to everyone in real time."
"Unique data visualizations created based on - among others - customer reviews and hands-on experience. Qlik is an experienced company in the Business Intelligence / Data visualization area, that doesn't necessarily mean it is the best solution, however, based on my personal experience it is much more complex than Power BI and Tableau as I've had some things to do with these two concurrent softwares."
"The GeoAnalytics paints such a clear picture. It provides a visual of our patient volume, giving us opportunities to see how we are trending in the surrounding cities, and making us more aware of locations that we need to focus more on."
"It has allowed us to manage our staff more effectively and frees up time for our analysts to analyze new problems and opportunities."
"It has improved our organization by providing data to decision-makers in a safe visual environment."
"It is very easy to use, and the Qlik data engine has been able to handle everything we have thrown at it."
"It reduces time to reproduce reports, provides easy access to organisational data, and has the ability to generate a wide range of reports and analysis."
"It is able to create information dashboards for various users' throughout."
"It is a central source of up-to-date data and information."
"Reload time is a limit since everyone wants real-time data."
"Qlik Sense is working very well on going to low code and development. They are trying to make their environment more user-friendly. However, the training is not free. When you want to learn more about the tool, sometimes you need to pay for the training. This does not make sense to me because training should be free because the more you learn about the tool the more you use it and the more you are loyal to the company and want to continue usage."
"Data modelling automation needs improvement."
"There is room for improvement in the storytelling mode and the report sharing. Qlik Sense also does not have a subscription base like Power BI. So a lot of the analysis is housed in community pages that are managed by either the author or a database administrator, or whoever the Qlik Sense manager is there."
"The product could be less expensive."
"The augmented intelligence features don't work well for the analytical user."
"The security rules should be made easier to use."
"I'd like to see more end-user-friendly UI designs."
"It needs more presentation/charting capabilities and integration with GIS."
