Find out what your peers are saying about Tableau, Qlik, MicroStrategy and others in Embedded BI."Dashboards and self-service reports. These are widely used by customers in the EPM domain."
"Faster time to delivery utilizing useful charts and graphs, which allows for on-demand generation of analytical data in tables, graphs, and charts."
"It is very easy to use, and the Qlik data engine has been able to handle everything we have thrown at it."
"On the fly questions can be answered with the "Qlik" of a button and drive forward discussions about policy, mission, and goals."
"All the necessary information is available to everyone in real time."
"Qlik Sense is very stable. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten. Even for rare issues, we receive good support from Qlik. It's a very stable solution."
"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."
"The UI is very easy to use, with drag and drop self-service analytics."
"The integration with R & Python for predictive modeling, and possibly machine learning in the future, is very valuable."
"Customer support takes lot of time to get a solution."
"Report generation without the need for NPrinting, which has limited capabilities anyway, would be an improvement."
"Right now, it is complex and you have to understand the data model prior to analyzing it, so basically I would like to see an integration with Excel in the future."
"The reporting solution recently added to the latest Cloud version, since December or January, is not fully developed. The ability to use tabular reporting, like in dashboards, would be a great feature."
"Qlik has a fast learning curve due to great online training resources (Qlik continuous classroom), but those are lacking the advance features like building extensions and using the API."
"Possibly offering some more basic, simpler templates."
"The navigation is quite clunky and outdated."
"If a team wants to keep track of source code changes, there is not an out-of-the-box solution for it."
"Even though a huge set of learning material is available, anyone starting his/her journey on learning the software doesn't even know where to start it. The so-called Continous Classroom service is not cheap, but there are many free tutorials, they are not sorted or enlisted adequately though."
