After three years and transferring to Qlik Sense SaaS edition, at my wits' end
What do you like best about the product?
Associative engine is great, the end user interface is great, well-trained users can conduct lots of investigative and simple analyses using the globally applicable selections tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
Good god where to begin.
App development is tremendously difficult/expensive. Qlik uses its own proprietary scripting language to design load scripts which is a tremendous pain to learn and use. The data manager is a colossal waste of time as you basically need to run your full reload script to open it and make changes. In order to do simple calculations that are out of the box in many other tools, Qlik requires that you use "set expressions", a nightmarish scripting system
We recently transferred from an enterprise deployment to a cloud deployment. Users considering this transition should be aware of a few major limitations which are not advertised and not mentioned in documentation:
1) apps cannot be larger than 5Gb
2) there is a hard timeout limit of 2 hours on the back end which cannot be changed by the user
3) the management console is a pale shadow of the functionality available in Qlik Sense Enterprise; where before we had rule-based security, the ability to create roles, full management of published apps, etc, we now have basically no security policies, no roles, and a confusing amalgam of app management features which are scattered between the management console and the front end so you have to keep switching back and forth to do basic tasks. As a particularly egregious example, when I have a new person onboarded now, I instruct them to sign in via SSO, and then I have to wait for them to sign in for the first time, at which point they have no access rights to any of our shared dashboards, and then I have to *one by one* go through all our shared spaces and add users individually to each of them in turn.
4) You can only use one identity provider at a time, so if you have external stakeholders you're going to have to create identities for them on your own IdP system.
5) There is zero ability to track usage by individual users or with individual apps. There's no way to audit which apps can be deprecated for lack of use, and if you're using capacity licenses, you have no ability to audit which of your users are expending the most minutes.
Qlik support is awful: it takes multiple days if not weeks to respond to any simple request, you have to constantly hound them for updates, the support staff is not knowledgeable about the product, and, perhaps most infuriatingly, you have to get into the habit of providing a ton of additional information which you'd *think* they would definitely already have every single time which is not requested in the ticket submission form, because if you don't, the first reply from the rep (usually about a week after you submit) is "could you please provide your license number and tell us which instance you're running on" etc. I can only assume they really don't *want* to be providing support and have created a system which is hostile enough to users that they hope it will discourage its use.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Qlik as a visualization and exploratory analytics solution. When it works, it does that. We can have most end users answer most of their own questions once we've built an app whose data model supports answering that question.
Useful data analytics tool
What do you like best about the product?
This is a useful tool for business analytics. You can easily pass query or add a filter to get the required data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Initially, you will need a bit of hand holding to understand the features of the tool. But once you get hands on then it becomes very easy to work with the tool.
Another disadvantage is that it gets freeze at times.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We do a lot of data analytics with QlikView.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is more of an advanced version of MS Excel and VB.
Qlikview - Helping us in solving large data complexities & Making analysis easy
What do you like best about the product?
Well this software helps me in organizing large data into presentable manner. Also I am able to make small data sets by running the query also it has features of processing multiples of lacs of rows in very less time. You can use multiples pictogram to represent your data such as Tables & Pivot Tables etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Well its a little complex software to use but with time you can win over that issue. Also, for finance professional like me initially it was very difficult to make understanding of this software but now i am using it to process my data in very efficient manner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Well the first issue resolved by this is the drawback of MS Excel that it can more than 10.7 lacs rows which excel can not. And secondly It helps in running query which helps you to get the desired data in a desired format.
Far better than Tableau in many Aspects!
What do you like best about the product?
Qliksense is absolute beast when it comes to true ETL capabilities. As compare to Tableau and Power BI it can handle much larger datasets. Qlik scripting is too powerful and easy to master. Self- service capabilities are also great in qliksense as it was designed to be self service analytic rather than a guided analytics tool. Qlik is also offering cloud deployment of their qlik products on all the popular cloud platform including their own cloud offering. Visualization is also good but compare to Tableau it lags behind.
What do you dislike about the product?
The most important thing that I did not like in qliksense is that most of the features that was available in qlikview natively has not been made available yet. So, to bring some qlikview like functionality we have to rely on extensions which are hard to build and master as it require front end tech stack skills set like js, angular ,nodejs etc. Also, it lags behind in visualization capabilities and native support of other analytical language like python and R is not supported yet which is there in Power BI.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are providing guided and self service MI to our stakeholders in an automated fashion which used to take lots of manaul effort to build earlier. Lots of manual task have been removed and replaced with automatic reporting solution with qliksense
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Condiser qliksense for its unmatched ETL and large datasets handling capabilities. Qlik is adding new features in every new release which happens every 3 months so I beleive once it has python and R integration embedded it is going to be a master in BI.
