Qlik Sense
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it's easy to understand at the beginning. The scripting language is very similar to excel with a different syntax.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really understand the associative model which is one of the highlights of the system. I also don't like that there's a lot of add ons or not enough support or feature additions that should be more basic / integrated already.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly solved data aggregations and data mining issues. It's helped automate reports that would take a very long time for one person to do manually.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask for a free trial, it'll help with finding out how easy it is to use Qlik. Also search Qlik Branch or GitHub to find extensions / add ons that help make Qlik Sense better / more customizable.
Very powerful and versatile tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to easily load and transform big volumes of data from different sources. It's very fast to make simple reports to show to your users. I also like that it's easy to learn, specially if you reach a basic/intermediate level.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some charts need more work to be more configurable to be able to adapt to more business requirement. Normally monthly updates are making this improvements i hope they continue to do so. The Data governance need improvements, specially using master items across the company.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Make diverse reports using SAP Data. Also building apps that load data from our many different systems.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start with a good base of users requirements. If you are a new users, there is lot of free material to learn in the Qlik web. Use best practices when you start your implementation and if possible use Qlik Development framework (QDF).
Power of Qlik
What do you like best about the product?
Best user experience, Self service, Associative indexing of data

Compare to qlikview, sense has less configurations in object properties. I wouldn't call it downside because it is evolving in version upgrade.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quick data to insight for businesses
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Analytics made easy with qliksense
What do you like best about the product?
There are more than one -
1. Scripting is very powerful and fast
I love the powerful scripting capability however it takes time to master this, once you are comfortable
you don't want to go back to other tools.
2. Analytics is intuitive and guided
The guided self service analytics is great and intuitive for the users who are not data savvy.

What do you dislike about the product?
The scripting has a steep learning curve because the qlik associative model is not the usual relational model so Qliksense desktop or qliksense personal edition should be given to new users or the community to try and learn. There is not enough motivation for new or trial users to pay for qliksense business at least in the community I work with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use QS for operational optimization and monitoring. It has helped us fine tune our operations and increased the performance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
IT is great analytics tool.
Qlik Sense Enterprise - 3 years into the journey after starting from scratch
What do you like best about the product?
) Ease of use, from importing/modeling data to creating visualizations.
2) Our analysts spend less time creating reports and more time analyzing/synthesizing information, which has created a leverage point for our internal analysts. They are much happier now too. We have converted many MS Access/Excel people to embedded Qlik developers that can write their own apps vs. having to send the BI team requirements for implementation.
3) The training time to covert people is also quick - I can have an analyst no longer using Excel within a month of some hands on sessions using their own data and their own business case.
4) The company has also saved lots of time and money by automating standard reporting.
5) Ease of use for end-users (not developers) - we achieved an 80% adoption rate within 3 months of initial launch. All our salespeople logged in so that they could audit/check their variable compensation. And they continued to keep logging in since it gave them new and faster insights into the business. As a result, they were fully engaged and eventually began to request apps/dashboards that we had not initially thought of.
6) Qlik Consulting Team is highly knowledgeable. As a new customer that had never had a BI platform, their consultants led us through a highly methodical, well-planned approach to getting our initial apps developed and lauched.
7) Qlik Community - the resources available online to help solve issue or learn about functionality has been tremendously valuable to our internal developers/power users.

What do you dislike about the product?
1) Integration with other Qlik products (from acquisitions) can be problematic. NPrinting connections sometimes do not work (e.g., On-Demand Printing function). Qlik Data Catalyst doesn't always synch properly, especially after a version upgrade.
2) user management between other Qlik apps requires custom scripting with RestAPIs. A consolidated user management tool would be nice.
3) exporting objects to a documentation tool (like Excel) for propagating upstream Master Items (out of the app level) is not native but can be done with the 3rd party (Qlikview Cookbook). We have had to do this many times as we optimize our apps on a regular basis in order to maintain data governance and streamline nightly load processes.
4) The Qlik Insights button rarely returns a good suggestion. It lacks context and doesn't really save developers and business users any time. So, we really do not ever need to use this feature.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1) General dashboarding/KPIs - business decisions are more timely since information flow has hastened
2) Reporting automation/optimization - much less manual spreadhsheet work
3) Advanced analytics (e.g., risk analysis, customer lifecycle analysis) - predictive analysis that allows the business to anticipate problems rather than reacting to them
4) Data Governance - we deal with many upstream sources of data that are homogeneous in concept but heterogeneous in data schema. Qlik Sense gives us a enhanced view into the raw "as is" data to check for data inconsistencies . We use a 3rd party extension as a 'write-back' that allows data stewards to profile and map data.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do your research and fully test out every vendor with as many use cases as possible. You should not only be testing the software but the responsiveness of the company representatives (Sales, Implementation, Sales Engineers) as well.
The most comprehensive Data Visualization tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Qlik Sense offers an easy-to-use user interface, matched with an extremely robust back end. Data load, transformation, security, and governance are managed easily and in the most professional and secure way. The ability to aggregate millions and billions of rows on the fly, without the need in pre-aggregating, makes it very effective in terms of getting to the desired insights faster and in the most cost-effective way.
One of the strongest areas is loading and combining data from multiple data sources. With Qlik Sense' robust Data Load scripting language, we can load data from virtually any data source, merge and associate data elements from multiple sources and analyze that versatile data in one App. Truly magical, comparing to other tools that I've tried in my 30+ years of IT background...
While the tool is intuitive and easy to pick up in a few days, it offers a lot of depth. For extremely complex data analytics, it offers comprehensive tools and robust functions that can tackle issues of utmost complexity.
I've been using the tool, and its predecessor QlikView, for almost 20 years, and I'm still in love with their magic!

What do you dislike about the product?
Compared to QlikView, Qlik Sense is targeting the business users audience, which makes the user interface simpler to use, at the expense of professional developers giving up their control over the presentation features. The charts are mostly configured automatically, with very few configurable settings. It saves a lot of time, however it makes it more difficult to create a particular "look and feel". This gap is somewhat covered through the use of extensions, mashups, and CSS themes, however these modern technologies require new skill sets, beyond the traditional data analytic skills.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a customer (in the past), I was solving a variety of business problems - Sales analysis, Profitability, Inventory, AR and AP tracking, financial reporting, production planning, etc. As a consultant, I help my client solve problems in all areas of the business spectrum - manufacturing and distribution, healthcare, financial services, even microbiology analytics and reporting. The tool is truly versatile and allows me to analyze any data in any electronic format.
Powerful visual workflow management product.
What do you like best about the product?
The performance speed of this tool is excellent, second the ability of data collection from multiple sources and even the collaboration capability provided by Qlik Sense is the best.
Reporting and the search options they really help the user, and the communication through this software is nice.
Financial, marketing and the employees management can be very well done via this tool and it has the ability on high volume data processing power.
