Qlik Sense
Chose Qlik Sense
I prefer Qlik due to its ability to combine multiple data sources and flexibility offer by the data load editor, other tools lack this capability or they don't do as good of a job as Qlik
Chose Qlik Sense
We wish we would have selected Power BI as our solution. The main reason for that is that in order to view a visualization in Qlik Sense you need a license. With Power BI that is not required.
Chose Qlik Sense
While the same can be said for many of the other tools we evaluated, Qlik's robust community and free training programs were a major benefit to driving the democratization of data at our company. Qlik also offered local in person events (pre-COVID) that provided free training …
Chose Qlik Sense

I have worked on IBM Cognos , Power BI for reporting and Dashboards in different organisations.

I can say the Cognos is for standard reporting with inbuilt scheduling and mail delivery services, Power BI is a bit more user friendly unlike Cognos and QlikSense.

Cons
Python Software Foundation
  • Too simplistic
  • Could not find source revision management integration support
  • Only basic debugging is available
  • Does not have data-science-specific notebooks (but can be installed separately)

Qlik
  • Scalability is RAM limited, all data is associative and in-memory so server's RAM is directly proportional to performance
  • Limitation on advanced analytics capabilities in the form of R integration to perform complex statistical and analytical calculations
  • Can have more intuitive interface

Usability
Python Software Foundation
The IDE Python IDLE is a good place to start as it helps you become familiar with the way Python works and understand its syntax.
This IDE allows you to configure the environment, font, size, colors, .....
It also looks like any simple text editor for any operating system, I work with Windows or Linux interchangeably, and you don't have to learn to use the IDE before programming.
Once the IDE is executed you can start programming directly in it.

Support Rating
Python Software Foundation
Python IDLE support is what the community can give you. As it is free software, it does not have support provided by the manufacturer or by third-parties.
In any case, for most of the problems that normal users can find, the solution, or alternatives, can be found quickly online.
As this IDE is made in Python, the support is the same group of Python developers.

Not only can you ask the support team for help, but you can also ask the community. Also with the community there is a vast amount of problems that have already been solved. The problem you are encountering has a likely chance of already being discussed and even solved in the community section saving you time from reaching out.

It's easy to set up and run quick analysis in Python IDLE on my local machine. The output is direct and easy to read. But sometimes I prefer Jupyter Notebook when the datasets are large, since it would take too long to run on my local machine. It is easier to run Jupyter Notebook on my cloud desktop

The customization of the platform opens up plenty of other options depending on the use cases. The API layer is incredibly rich and makes integration of Qlik based visualization into web pages a simple and effective pattern. It's been very easy to use with a great community made up of professionals. Qlik Sense has introduces artificial Intelligence into my data visualization and reporting activity.
