Overall Satisfaction with Qlik Sense
Qlik Sense is used across our enterprise to bring together data from disparate databases/applications and provide visualizations. Provides visibility to data that is otherwise hidden.
- Data Linking - ability to pull data from a wide variety of applications and database is a powerful feature.
- Charting and visuals - heart of the product is the variety of out of the box visualizations (charts, tables, pivot, etc.) that give developers supported tools to tell department stores.
- Security - ability to prevent sets of data for view by groups of users is powerful.
- Email - lack of email functionality for reports and visuals is a miss. NPrinting adds in the functionality - but should be part of the core product. Requires the use of other products like SQL reporting services to accomplish this key business need.
- Reporting - Visuals are great - the reality is we still need to print or export a visual for users to memorialize data. Lack of ability to produce a report or set one up is a miss.
- Speed - at times the set up is slow. I believe this is likely more related to the development environment/setup than the product itself.
- Positive ROI is a single platform to go to and make decisions
- Positive ROI on bringing together data that required manual manipulation of spreadsheets before.
Tableau and Microsoft business dynamics were initially evaluated.
