Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ability to design complex data models and equations.""This has improved our organization by allowing people to see their data and develop visualizations themselves.""I find it favorable regarding speed of development, ease of building, and flexibility.""The company dashboard is useful because we could share it via a link as a reminder for everyone to check it weekly. We observed the progress of our portfolio from last week to the current week, allowing us to compare revenues.""Data Studio integrates seamlessly with other Google products, and we can use it with other APIs if we like.""The ability to integrate with a great variety of data sources.""I am impressed with the tool's scheduling mechanism, refresh mechanism, and different types of charts.""The solution is free so that is a good feature."

"I had the option to prepare data myself instead of always having to depend on the data team.""You can do a lot of things on the back end which are not possible in the other solutions on the market.""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.""One of the good thing is that you can integrate different data source technologies. So you can model your environment without having any of our views running.""The integration with Salesforce has helped us gain access to crucial sales data in real-time.""Easy to analyze data by click-through.""The initial setup is not very complex.""The most valuable aspect is its extensive library on Microsoft, providing a robust framework for implementation."

Cons
"There is a significant degree of sophistication required to compete with Tableau or Cognos.""The tool should come up with data modeling layer features that are present in other products like Power BI.""Insisting on forums, blogs and community outreach in communications, and posting videos on an established calendar would be useful.""There are issues with integration and I encountered limits and warnings, especially with my pivot table size.""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.""Stability and scalability an be improved for a full ten.""Panels are not as easy to use as other data extraction UIs.""It's not yet a replacement for a complete BI tool."

More Google Data Studio Cons →

"The user interface and ease of use takes a bit of a learning curve to pick up.""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.""There is a challenge on the frontend when it comes to browsing data through QlikView, as it isn't entirely compatible with other platforms we use.""The solution should be mobile-responsive. It should also include drag-and-drop and slice-and-dice features.""More/newer visualisation components need to be added.""The pricing is high.""They could improve the update time.""Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved."
