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
Likelihood to Recommend
We produce a lot of graphs, so it's good to have the controls available from Vizlib
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.
Likelihood to Recommend
I have read reviews where Vizlib is performing well. That was not our experience integrating Vizlib with Qlik Sense cloud as a write back capability. So, my experience is that integrating Vizlib with Qlik Sense cloud as a write back capability is probably not an area where they perform well.

Likelihood to Recommend
Vizlib helps us make better use of our data and significantly improves our use of Qlik. If you use Qlik Sense, you need Vizlib. It provides charts and functionality that is necessary to visualize and work with data successfully. It does a great job with our data which comes from a variety of systems and files.
