What is QlikView?
The vendor describes QlikView, Qlik’s classic analytics solution, as a revolution in how organizations use data, with intuitive visual discovery that put business intelligence in the hands of more people than ever. Qlik Sense, the vendor's next-generation analytics platform, supports the full range of modern analytics use cases at enterprise scale by combining the Associative Engine with Cognitive Engine driving augmented intelligence, plus a scalable, governed cloud architecture.
As businesses modernize operational processes including BI, Qlik Sense is provided by the vendor as the way forward. Through the Qlik Analytics Modernization Program, QlikView users can adopt Qlik Sense at their own pace for a small uplift on their annual maintenance rate -- which they state will expand an enterprise's analytic possibilities while reducing the total cost of ownership for BI.

QlikView Review
- Free desktop version
- Faster
- More selection of charts
- Confusing user interface
- Small community
- Time intensive formatting
- It is fairly user-friendly for creating new Apps.
- It has the ability to handle large volumes of data -- over 5000+ lines.
- The ability to extract the data into excel, pdf files, etc..
- It is not clear why, when you extract data into Excel, certain columns are shaded a dark grey -- and this changes each time. There appears to be no consistency or reason.
- Data Visualization
- Dashboards
- Data Analysis
- Report building tool itself is very different than many other BI tools
- Setting up your layouts/data visualization display could be easier. Reminds me of trying to make adjustments in Visio
Qlikview review

Qlikview: The older horse in a heat full of young stallions
- Aggregates the data relatively quickly
- Allows some simple forms of graphing the data to present
- Can drill down to specific items
- Is not user-friendly out of the gate. It takes some time to understand how to navigate through the data to get what you want.
- Is limited to the data the finance team feel the users want to see. Cannot control finite amounts of filtering.
- While it can and does filter data well the presentation of the data has a very late 90's early 2000's feel to it with no way to change.
A software to keep our data updated
- Manages a great amount of data and brings the best of it
- Analyzes data and develops new trends for the products we made
- Send a new set of data for the products in our business
- The software needs an IT team in the company that can handle the troubles with the code systems that I, as a user, can't deal with.
- The software needs a maintenance contract to be able to modify the configurations of the data in order to adapt to our needs.
- The software is a very useful tool but has to be more intuitive for the users to manage some functionality and be faster with our daily work.
QlickView - a tool for business analysts
- Easy to use by users without a big technical knowledge.
- Easy to integrate different data sources.
- Fancy reports.
- It is really slow, the performance should be improved.
- The ability to test reports can be improved, it takes a lot of time just for testing.
