Overall Satisfaction with Qlik Sense

We use Qlik Sense to sales and purchasing dashboard, mananing the granularaty in sales order, items and clients by day. Daily, our users can to access these datas and analyse the company performance. We have something about 100 people accessing and extracting data to enrich the analysis tha are delivered to providers, clientes, company managers and C-Levels.
  • Extract
  • Transform
  • Load
  • Manage large database
  • Absence of Desktop Tool, in the past we had the Qlik Sense desktop to train people to make dashboards
  • Free Extension to extract data to files like xlsx, txt, csv
  • Best management of logs repository, in sometimes a lot of space in the disk is ocuppied by these files, it would be deleted after a determined time.

We use Microsoft Power BI too as a BI tool, in my point of view, Qlik Sense's ETL is much better than PowerBi. In another side, PowerBI learning curve is small than Qlik Sense, especially the PowerBI Desktop.
It is well suited when we are in a big ETL, in another tool at some moments, it's a hard question. It's less appropriate when we are training colleagues that never used a BI tool, or when structuring a data area, especially because of the missing of a QlikSense Desktop tool for free.
