Qlik Sense - Combining many data sources into one reporting tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to show the end user actionable data through all of our "disconnected" systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much, there is a bit of technical know how needed for data sourcing and "cleansing" but it allows for some pretty neat ways to present data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are identifying what sells and when. We also are able to identify sources of cost. Once the costs are identified we can start tracking changes to see if our action plans are successful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Create a test environment to see what Qlik can do for you. Once we saw the data in one single location we knew we had picked a software that would help us win.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Conduct an inventory of your internal reports (author, audience, frequency, etc.) to get an idea of the company's needs and who will actually stand to gain the most when Qlik is up and running. This will inform who needs to be a part of the internal working group and also prioritize what reports get done first.
I also recommend taking an assessment of skill sets for your analysts. Qlik Set Analysis translates very well to those with MS Excel or Access or SQL experience.

Qlik Sense has given us insight into our data

Qlik Sense is easy to connect with data sources and it is even easier to design a dashboard!

Sales Analysis
Robust browser-based BI development
What do you like best about the product?
Browser-based for ease of deployment; broad selection of visualizations; powerful scripting language for data loads; huge selection of data connectors; powerful Set Analysis functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Security rules can be cumbersome as they require scripting. There is a wizard that will let you set up some basic rules, but once you get into and/or/if scenarios, the rules need to be manually edited and the syntax takes some getting used to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've deployed applications in a wide variety of areas, from Sales to Farming Production, to our Cooler. Every area has realized some type of process improvement as a result of being able to easily see issues via the visualizations available in Qlik Sense.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the technical resources available via your Sales rep. You do not necessarily need to call tech support for product usage information. Call your sales rep first and see if they can get one of the technical experts in their location to help you with product knowledge.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
From my experience, most of the though/complicated how-to's I solved with the help of the community. Hence I strongly recommended, in any tool that you are checking validate how large and cooperative is the community.
QIik is using what they call "Associative Model/engine".
While this is, what give QIik one of its benefits and for you (the developer/user) the
ease of rapid building dashboards and reports, make sure you truly understand this
"Associative Model" thing before stepping into the role of building the data model of
the solution. Although it is a no-brainer, some people, due to ease of development
may tempt to skip this phase. Don't do that! Otherwise you are risking some odd
results on your reports in the best case, or misleading reports on the worst case.
