We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Associative model - no more cubes.""The solution is fast.""The scalability is there.""The most useful feature of QlikView for me is the QVD concept.""If you correctly use the product for your use cases, it provides value for money.""It has user-friendly data visualization features, supporting our decision-making process with its business intelligence capabilities""Data transforming with scripting, and the associative model that lets users browse data in an easy way, are the most valuable features.""It excels in supporting database connections and various database types."

"The correlation capabilities are the first value that our clients say they like with Splunk.""The visibility is amazing with easy dashboard creation.""The product is good, it satisfies our customers.""Splunk setup is easy and straightforward. ​""It has a big user base, so the community is useful.""It has reduced the time to resolution, time to investigate, and time to troubleshoot for debugging issues.""Internal tracking is helpful because we do not like to deal with multiple ticketing systems, and I am not a fan of ServiceNow. We are able to keep everything internal and utilize Enterprise Security.""We can present to our management in real time the security of the batch management for the PCs, security regarding the network equipment. We're currently working in the Azure Cloud project, so we can send any logs from the cloud to Splunk. We can monitor them and we can present to the managers and customers. It's a very good solution for reporting. We use Splunk for reporting and monitoring of any solution in the company."

Cons
"There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns.""It needs work with visualization.""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.""Better source data connectors.""For me, it is important to have a mix, what is the "view" and what is the "sense", Qlik Sense. They have two tools, but for me it is important to have only one tool, which combines the functions that we have from one side and the other side.""I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase.""The tool is expensive in Turkey.""Enhancing user-friendliness would be highly beneficial."

More QlikView Cons →

"Some of the queries are difficult to run and have room for improvement.""The product was difficult to back up the first time.""It would be nice if they had a wizard to construct searches, including more complex searches that include math or statistics.""It works as intended for us, and we are getting everything that we need out of it. If anything, its initial setup can be improved a bit.""It needs to improve the way to install third-party apps and enable installation without logging into splunk.com.""Their technical support sucks.""The pricing can be better.""Its pricing model and integration with third-party services can be improved. We had faced an issue with integration. The alerting feature is currently not available with Splunk, but it is definitely available with Datadog and PagerDuty. They should include this feature. A few dashboards in Splunk look quite old and are not that modern. They aren't bad, but improving these dashboards will definitely make Splunk more attractive and usable. I read in a few blog posts that there were a few security incidents related to Splunk agents. So, it can be made more secure."
