We performed a comparison between Alteryx and QlikView based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Predictive Analytics solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution has a very strong community that is involved in the product. It helps make the usage easier and helps us find answers to our questions."
"Geo features have made spatial mapping large retail universes possible."
"The scheduling within the solution is excellent."
"The value add of Alteryx is the agility for making changes, and speed of deployment."
"Alteryx has a good UI. We use it frequently in our projects. The tool comes with drag-and-drop features and is easy to understand for business needs. One situation where Alteryx's advanced analytics capabilities were particularly beneficial for us was during a forecasting project. Unlike Python, which requires coding, Alteryx simplifies the process significantly. With Alteryx, users can adjust parameters within the user interface without writing any code."
"It allows for manipulation and automation, which has greatly reduced the amount of time required per project."
"The most valuable feature of Alteryx is user-friendliness."
"The design portion of this tool is easy to use without code, which his something that something we can appreciate."
"I had the option to prepare data myself instead of always having to depend on the data team."
"It enables us to configure various elements, such as dashboard settings, including factors like color schemes and other customization parameters."
"The product’s most valuable feature is its ability to view the entire data available for analysis."
"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."
"You can switch views easily."
"The most valuable aspect is its extensive library on Microsoft, providing a robust framework for implementation."
"The in-memory feature gives us better insight. It's also easy to drill down into the information and select information."
"The user interface and dashboards are very good."
"Its most valuable feature lies in its functionality."
"The technical support could have a little bit of improvement."
"A feature which allows the user to be able to click on an output (in a file browser) and see the creation of the module would be fantastic."
"The event handling, such that the file system watcher, is in need of improvement."
"Lacks an open source edition which would be helpful."
"From a commercial standpoint, more options should be available for pricing. The licensing model needs to be specific."
"More statistics tools: We can use to compare SPSS statistics with some automated advisory."
"They should work on its pricing."
"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."
"QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly."
"Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved."
"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."
"Although Qliktech's road map clearly states that QlikView has a long way to go, most of the R&D effort seems to be benefiting Qlik Sense."
"If a user wanted to see something not included in the application the new object had to be created by a power user or developer because Qlik view's scripting has somewhat of a learning curve."
"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."
"They could improve the update time."
