Find out in this report how the two Reporting solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I find it favorable regarding speed of development, ease of building, and flexibility."
"This has improved our organization by allowing people to see their data and develop visualizations themselves."
"The ability to design complex data models and equations."
"The solution is free so that is a good feature."
"Valuable features include advanced integrated analysis and easy implementation."
"Data Studio integrates seamlessly with other Google products, and we can use it with other APIs if we like."
"I am impressed with the tool's scheduling mechanism, refresh mechanism, and different types of charts."
"The ability to integrate with a great variety of data sources."
"On the positive side, QlikView's scripting is a great asset as it functions as an ETL."
"The solution is fast."
"It's pretty easy to deploy."
"This is a very cool application with endless options of creativity and visuals."
"It excels in supporting database connections and various database types."
"The initial setup is not very complex."
"If you correctly use the product for your use cases, it provides value for money."
"We use QlikView for its cost-effectiveness and ease of integration with databases."
"When you physically install a product on one machine instead of the cloud, you have a better visibility, best icon quality, etc.. It's more of an issue with how we are adapting to the transition. We are still in the early moments of using this tool, and we need to go deeper to discover some improvements."
"There is a significant degree of sophistication required to compete with Tableau or Cognos."
"There are issues with integration and I encountered limits and warnings, especially with my pivot table size."
"Insisting on forums, blogs and community outreach in communications, and posting videos on an established calendar would be useful."
"The tool should come up with data modeling layer features that are present in other products like Power BI."
"Other tools might be worth considering if you need more advanced features or support for a larger user base."
"Stability and scalability an be improved for a full ten."
"It's not yet a replacement for a complete BI tool."
"The user interface is old."
"Improvement in collaboration, between that and publishing of reports and publishing of models."
"There could be a feature to analyze the sales and accounting data of the client."
"The user interface and ease of use takes a bit of a learning curve to pick up."
"They could provide a user-friendly analysis process rather than specialized IT resource code."
"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."
"The solution is quite costly."
"The solution should be mobile-responsive. It should also include drag-and-drop and slice-and-dice features."
