Couldnt do it without Vizlib

Incentivized
Debi Cook
Director at 1QC (1-10 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Every graph we produce from Qlik Cloud uses a Vizlib extension. We found them to be better for our purposes with more control over the aspects of the graphs, tables, and charts.

Pros

  • We use their opacity on bar chart
  • more control over rows and columns on pivot tables
  • better control on text objects

Cons

  • Occasionally the upgrades don't perform as expected
  • Y-axis format on some bar charts isn't quite right

Return on Investment

  • We can't produce our reports (core product) without it

Usability

Dissatisfied with Vizlib as a writeback capability integrated with Qlik Sense

Verified User
C-Level Executive in Corporate (51-200 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We attempted to implement Vizlib integrated with our QlikSense instantiation, but it failed. Vizlib promised a capability to write back to source data from our QlikSense tools, but Vizlib was not able to deliver, support was extremely slow and frustrating, and ultimately we were forced to cancel the contract. We asked for a 50% refund, but Vizlib declined. I could not recommend Vizlib based on my experience with them.

Pros

  • Their sales demo was excellent and compelling
  • Their concept of write back to source data from within Qlik is very powerful and needed.

Cons

  • Vizlib promised a writeback capability that it just was not able to deliver. We bought additional developer licenses for QlikSense that were not planned in the initial Vizlib discussions, but even with they were not able to implement a writeback capability.
  • I feel Support was horrible... very slow, and with inadequate expertise.

Return on Investment

  • We have had a negative experience with Vizlib... we paid for a capability that wasn't delivered, and that cost us time that could have been better spend on other priorities. Negative ROI.
