Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Tableau, Oracle and others in Reporting."It's incredibly fast and can handle large volumes of data without slowing down our operations."
"The most valuable aspect is its extensive library on Microsoft, providing a robust framework for implementation."
"You can do a lot of things on the back end which are not possible in the other solutions on the market."
"It enables us to configure various elements, such as dashboard settings, including factors like color schemes and other customization parameters."
"Associative model - no more cubes."
"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."
"The solution is fast."
"Our Qlikview applications help us to get a good idea of our Client Base Performance and assist us in the decision making for Seasonal Specials. On the other hand QlikView helps us to get a grasp on our Suppliers and helps us to negotiate pricing with them."
"The product’s performance is better than other tools."
"I have found many of the self-service features valuable."
"From my perspective, it enables clients to better understand our data and make better decisions based on that information."
"Tableau has many different connectors for different databases. It's very easy to connect to MySQL, SQL Server, Amazon EMR, Presto, Redshift, BigQuery, and so on."
"It allows us to basically understand and evaluate our numbers in an expedient manner."
"Tableau is easy to use compared to some other solutions, such as Excel."
"Better interaction and less time spent with end users."
"The solution has great features which nobody can beat, you can do a lot of customizations, such as use different dimensions and colorize them. Additionally, you can use the numeric values for the customization, which is an exceptional feature."
"Great capability, performance, flexibility, visuals, and the solution is also very cost effective."
"I am looking forward to testing their full graphics that are available, as they looked very interesting in the demo."
"There could be a feature to analyze the sales and accounting data of the client."
"The only thing I would improve about it is the fact that it refreshes all the time, and when it does that, it just deletes all the options you had, all the filters that you had selected, so you need to select them from the beginning."
"The solution is quite costly."
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening."
"They could provide a user-friendly analysis process rather than specialized IT resource code."
"QlikView certainly lacks in its ability to share visualizations or create visualizations easily."
"They could improve the speed."
"It would be nice if QlikView could be plugged in into the company's website or an online portal such as QlikSense is capable of. There are ways around but it takes enormous time to develop."
"It needs a little bit more advanced modeling. I would like to see functionality like Cognos has in the Framework Manager."
"Lacks machine learning algorithms that you can implement using R, SPSS Modeler, and Python."
"The interface can be improved, in part because there is no indication that something is running or that it's processing."
"It's not an aesthetic platform at the moment."
"They need a write-back; that is what is missing. If they get the write back to the database, they will be fully automated, but for the time being, they are not."
"Most of the problems in Tableau Online that I have noticed have to do with performance or weird, inexplicable bugs that I can't pin down. For example, you might try unloading some data, and you'll be waiting for a long time without anything happening."
"The data entered into Tableau must be clean. Otherwise, it won't work properly."
"The solution could improve the scalability, it is difficult to make changes."
"There should be a better or an easier way to establish that connection to external sources."
"Would like the ability to be able to benchmark."
