Overall Satisfaction with Qlik Sense

My company is using Qlik Sense across the entire organization from internal usages such as Finance, HR, and line management to external users such as demonstration to clients. It is one of the most useful tools to manage and provide data visualization. Even though there are many alter options, Qlik is easy to use.
  • Interactive visualization.
  • Data integration.
  • It's not as fully developed as Qlikview.
  • It does not perform advanced analytics.
Qlik Sense is definitely easier to use. Personally, I do not really like Microsoft Power BI. It is a middle product between Qlik Sense and actual data science tools, and does not perform well individually. Well, Qlik Sense is much more suitable for a business analyst, and actually fits the needs of BA.
Qlik Sense is a suitable tool for business analysts to perform relatively easy data analytics, data visuals, and find key insight. It is easy to learn and use. However, for data scientists, there are many other open-source tools available, and they provide more advanced data analytics options and interactive data visuals.
