We performed a comparison between Qlik Sense and QlikView based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Embedded BI solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"Data-driven decisions are now easier."
"The ETL component allows us to pull from many different sources, making pulling data in easy."
"Self-service use of the desktop version with the ability to port applications into the server environment."
"We began to see how our processes and other team's processes were negatively affecting the bottom line. We were able to provide tips to other teams to help improve their processes."
"The overall ability to build quick wins with simple data to drive insights."
"It offers good control. Loading the logs is also a good thing."
"The product’s most valuable feature is its ability to view the entire data available for analysis."
"The initial setup is not very complex."
"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 most valuable aspect is its extensive library on Microsoft, providing a robust framework for implementation."
"This is a very cool application with endless options of creativity and visuals."
"It excels in supporting database connections and various database types."
"A well designed app brings freedom of inquiry to meetings, allowing me to answer questions in real time and this has transformed progress and outputs of our monthly group meeting."
"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."
"Data modelling automation needs improvement."
"Integrated maps should become part of the Qlik Sense, as opposed to buying an additional module just to power the BI, which has it built-in natively within the application."
"We need more types of visualizations."
"Multi-server deployment: not just cloud, but on premise too, and hybrid. Needs lighter protocols to communicate between the different services and with the clients."
"The only thing I would say that comes up is that sometimes it can be a bit buggy."
"Qlik application automation needs additional work and features."
"I would like to more easily themed environments."
"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."
"Improvements are required in the hide and unhide functionality that falls under the layout container feature that has been used in my company in recent times."
"Scalability really depends on the size of your data and QlikView server architecture. For the biggest data sets, it could become an issue at some point."
"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."
"Enhancing user-friendliness would be highly beneficial."
"Syntax editor needs some work, it's frustrating to have valid syntax being flagged as incorrect."
"Installation and deployment could be made easier and quicker."
"Needs improvement with UI transparency."
"Error handling."
