Great built-in ETL component and fast response, makes this a great tool.
What do you like best about the product?
Working with several disparate and legacy data sources, we needed a tool that would help us unlock/untrap data and Qlik Sense’s built in ETL tools was the perfect fit. It is easy to add a complete variety of sources from different platforms and blend it all into locally-stored data models that make reloading and manipulating your data incredibly fast. I think the ETL tools completely out-perform established tools like Informatica Cloud in every way, from loading to transforming and even auto-scheduling.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few things I disagree with about Qlik, but mainly it is their pricing. The token model is not a good fit for us, we have many dedicated users who need their own token, so I feel like we are over-paying for these users. Also, like any software company out there, the slick selling of products based on future features is sneaky, but seems to be the industry norm. Be sure you are comfortable with their product roadmap before you sign.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had lots of trapped data that required software engineers to write custom SQL queries to get at, and thus our access to data was horribly slow. Qlik Sense allowed us the ability to get the data out quick, fast and cheap without revamping our entire legacy database platform. Now we have more data than our entire team could utilize building out reports and dashboards over the next 10 years. Be prepared to add a few analysts to do nothing but build apps and dashboards once you go live! As when users get a taste of what Qlik does on the visualization side, they will keep on asking for more.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start with the free trial tool, it is a fully functioning version. You will be amazed.
Great Reporting Tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Streamlines our reporting process - getting away from the crazy excel report we have. Analysis tools are amazing!
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to drill down into certain items. Otherwise I don't have any qualms about it!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting away from a clunky/manual reporting tool
Qlik is fast, fun, and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
Qlik's fun and easy interface gives our users a sense of excitement in playing with the data. Its ease-of-implementation has allowed our Analytics team to present large quantities of information in ways that have never been viewed in our company at speeds that give us the ability to adjust apps on the fly.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have honestly not found anything that we cannot do within Qlik. If I had to choose something, it might be the limitations of specific Charts in not being able to add more dimensions and measures, but that is just being greedy, picky, and unrealistic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are creating automatic reports from manually-generated reporting within different departments, and we have given some summary analytics of our memberships and some AMAZING Geo-Analytics mapping apps for targeting and planning purposes.
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
What do you like best about the product?
Qlik Sense is easy to connect with data sources and it is even easier to design a dashboard!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that the dashboard design had a little more flexibility for those of us who prefer to customize.

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.
