Overall Satisfaction with Qlik Sense

Mainly dashboards but we are moving towards predictive analytics.
  • Dashboard creation is easy.
  • Lots of built in KPIs and visualizations.
  • Aggregation of data from various sources.
  • Documentation is lacking especially around more advanced concepts like parameter usage and set operations.
  • The KPI/Visualizations import feature should tell you about compatibility issues at import.
  • While Qlik Sense is a very good BI tool it does not replace ad hoc reporting needs. Nor does it replace tabular spreadsheet needs. It does provide a powerful tool to our users of information. It also can help drive an organization to manage metrics and goals.
Qlik Sense is just easier to use. We can spin up dashboards in minutes rather than hours or days.
Management dashboards and metrics. Analysis of data through filtering, finding the hidden patterns in why/how the results came to be.
