Qlik Analytics Platform vs. Swiftify

Qlik Analytics Platform has helped us track turnaround time as well as sales volumes. We can display metrics in a multitude of ways and can then slice it up in even more ways by adding filters. It is nice that you can filter down the data by essentially "Qliking" anywhere to find insights. Qlik Analytics Platform has been extremely beneficial in reducing manual reports. We are able to automate numerous reports in addition to setting up alerts, through Nprinting, that will notify users when certain metrics are hit. For example, if our turnaround time exceeds a certain number, we can alert business stakeholders so they can take a closer look. We can also send notifications to sales representatives when their territories are underperforming.

It is recommended to use Swiftify in any situation that requires iOS development because even if you develop just in Swift or just in Objective-C, it could be helpful for researching and investigating purposes. Additionally, if you need to convert big quantities of code from Objective-C to Swift, this tool will optimise that work. It will not translate a whole class of 2000 lines perfectly, but after converting it you can review the code and modify the lines that have not been properly converted, making you save more than the 50% of the time in that case. I've not been able to test it properly as I only used the trial version and it is really limited.

• Fast setup of analytics report
• Easy tweaking of build dashboards
• Perfect integration with other data software
• Vast possibilities on setting up dashboards

• Helps to prevent redoing the whole code.
• Sometimes it is hard to find the exact command of Obj-C in swift.
• It helped me to learn more :)

• Certainly, it turns out that implementation and data modeling are sometimes complex.
• There are still many graphic and representation limits that need complex customizations to be overcome.

• Sometimes the conversion doesn't make much sense. The Swift conversion doesn't compile, or is not optimized.

Customer support is provided through resellers, and finding the right reseller for your context can be a challenge. However our support from our last two resellers/partners has been largely very good. The online community is strong, though obviously doesn't replace having local technical experts working with the product and managing it.

I don't have any problems with the platform. I like that their email responses are fast.

Qlik is a platform with more scaling ability and functionality compared to PowerBI. PowerBI is the prior step before passing to Qlik, however, Qlik provides more functions and abilities to the business domain unit with better management capabilities for the IT team that set it up. In the end, we implemented Qlik for functionality and scalability.

There's not much to compare - we haven't found any proprietary like it. Existing OpenSource solutions are unmaintained and Swiftify supports the latest versions of Swift.

• It made our analytics better
• Dashboards for strategic decisions are changed and setup faster
• We spend more time on learning the tool than we thought to need

• For now the impact has been small, considering that I used the trial version, it was helpful for small conversions. Summarising: Saving time on researching process
