Overall Satisfaction with Qlik Sense
We are currently using Qlik Sense across two departments, IT and Finance. In IT we are using it to watch metrics of an eCommerce site we manage. In the finance dept, they use watch metrics in sales in general. The problems Qlik helped solve was the time it took to create some of the month end reports that finance, some would take weeks, and now with Qlik Sense, the reports are generated within minutes if not seconds.
- They make it easy to understand, you don't need to be very technical to use it.
- When you load your data into Qlik Sense you have a chance to make some tweaks to get it to match the model you are trying to achieve.
- Their section access is also a very nice addition and works to allow access to either whole apps or only certain parts of an app
- Something we have struggled with is getting Qlik Sense to load the apps into the web frame to be displayed on a regular HTML site.

Evaluating Qlik Sense and Competitors
- Product Features
- Product Usability
When we were looking the tool we would use for our BI, we wanted something that had a lot of features but also wasn't difficult to understand. Qlik offered exactly that, they had all the features we were expecting, and the training was easy.
Qlik Sense Implementation
- Implemented in-house
Change management was minimal

Qlik Sense Support
| Pros | Cons |

Quick Resolution Good followup Knowledgeable team Problems get solved Kept well informed No escalation required Immediate help available Support understands my problem Support cares about my success Quick Initial Response | None |
When we were first getting set everything set up. We had an idea of what we were doing, but the team at Qlik guided us through a few of the things we were unsure of, and even looked at a finished product of ours and offered pointers.
