My most valuable asset in QlikView is the ease with which any datasource can be integrated into the QlikView model for reporting.

Valuable Features: The traditional BI tools are extremely limiting in the fact that they require very strict controls on the sources of data. This is understandable in very large corporates, but in a small- to medium-size business, where most supporting data sources are nothing more than an... more »

Very intuitive to business users and executives

I use both QlikView and Tableau. Although very different, I really like both solutions. They belong to the new BI generation known as Interactive Visual Analytics. In my opinion, QlikView has a more intuitive interface for regular users or executives that are not technical experts but the... more »

The fact that QlikView provides its own QVD structure, removes all dependency on having a DBMS in place before implementing.

Valuable Features: The ability to provide drill down functionality quickly and easily into large data sets. Anyone working with a large amount of data in Microsoft Excel and then waiting ages for it to subtotal all that information, will certainly appreciate the speed and efficiency with which... more »

Although the ability to modify on the fly is one of the reasons we switched to Qlik Sense, this feature has some room for improvement.

Valuable Features: · Enhanced data profiling – Improved profiling and auto creation of geographic data, plus smarter algorithms for identifying associations · More powerful data prep – New graphical capability for loading pivot tables, pre-filtering of data, and a more... more »

Its associative model helped us identify customer purchase behavior and we could define combos according to this information.

Valuable Features: QlikView’s associative model is a fantastic design that enabled the Green/White/Grey feature. This feature greatly helped us highlight the relationship between different kinds of data. To further explain the Green/White/Grey feature, let’s take a sales report of an... more »

The Set Analysis Wizard allows us to create subsets in a smart, fast way. It allows you to control the results, taking into consideration user clicking and selecting data.

Valuable Features: ETL functionality is hugely important, as data rarely are provided smooth and clean, even when the assumption is it has been cleaned beforehand. Plus, usually in BI, we need to create custom groupings, and being able to do that in script ad-hoc is very helpful Scripting for... more »

A recent user: "I've done some primitive comparisons between Tableau, QlikView and PowView." Have you compared these?

He wrote: "Seems like all of them have pros/cons. Tableau won in my mind but PowerView is brand new, its integrated with Sharepoint (if you're running SSRS 2012 in Sharepoint) and is of course free for the Excel version." Do you agree with this analysis? See full comment at... more »
