QlikView Pros review quotes

Jason Heunis - PeerSpot reviewer

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.

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.

On the positive side, QlikView's scripting is a great asset as it functions as an ETL.

QlikView is one of the strongest tools, I would say. Also, it has a very vast capability to process the data
 

QlikView Cons review quotes

Jason Heunis - PeerSpot reviewer
Jun 6, 2022
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.

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.

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.

Improvement in collaboration, between that and publishing of reports and publishing of models.

Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved.

If a user wanted to see something not included in the application the new object had to be created by a power user or developer because Qlik view's scripting has somewhat of a learning curve.

Though the initial setup phase is simple, when it comes to the integration with the custom systems, the configuration and the compatibility sometimes take some more time.
