Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Qlik sense, at the moment, is only being used by our department, as we are busy creating new models from old existing QlikView models. Afterwards, it will be used by various departments in the organization to analyze and compare data.

Pros and Cons

A beautiful design of both the front-end and the back-end. Specifically, the back-end looks a lot neater now than compared with Qlik View.
Data visualization is made really easy by Qlik Sense.
Easy to understand and to start creating models with it.

Can be a little difficult to get used to where all of the features are located.
Qlik Sense is lacking a lot of features that'd make it a much better tool for data analytics.

Return on Investment

Making geographical analytics available to us.
Enabling the design of better dashboards.

Alternatives Considered

QlikView

Qlik Sense is definitely a lot prettier than QlikView, but QlikView does have a couple of features that Qlik sense does not have on its own. Extensions do help bridge the problem. Qlik Sense makes a lot of tasks much easier than they would have been if I were to have used QlikView instead.
