Excellent Tool for any Business
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy being able to access my data with minimal effort. I can quickly drill into data that previously took me hours to compile.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the customization capabilities are lacking and the need to know coding creates a bit of a barrier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Qlik is eliminating the need for additional analysts by speeding up our month end process. An additional benefit has been in terms of efficiency. I am no longer needing to perform repetitive tasks for our monthly reporting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you do not have an employee that is a coder, find a consultant to get you up and running. Do not rush the process when it comes to finding the consultant.

Reporting and self service BI for the end user
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Big competition to Tableau
A novice view
What do you like best about the product?
The Geo Analytics extension is a huge plus for me. I no longer have to done this analysis in another place and then bring it into a BI tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is steep for beginners. You really need a strong understanding of how set analysis works to produce dashboards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a true enterprise solution built in a great platform.

What do you dislike about the product?
Takes a little bit of using to a different way of working with the underlying data - slightly different than spreadsheets "in your face" data.
Lacks the ability to stop the data processing and then apply some filters. When you have a huge set of data and a visualization that shows it all takes to long to process you hit the abort button. But this applies to your ability to filter the data as well. So you can't pick a smaller sample and then run the data processing.
The debug messages when importing the data through the load script are often not very helpful.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fast processing of data volumes that far exceed the theoretical and practical applications of traditional spreadsheets.
Filtering that applies to all of the visualisations (unless you specify otherwise)

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try - the desktop version is free to use even for commercial (internal) use. This software may seem to be a little bit daunting at first but you can get used to it quickly. There is a ton of help online.
Surprisingly easy
What do you like best about the product?
It was surprisingly easy to create a first dashboards. I had doubts first how Self Service should work for colleagues who don´t have the knowledge of creating formulas by themselves. When I found out about the Qlik Sense Libary everything became clear so that we would really like to proceed with this tool after having used Qlik View for some years. I line very much the new visualizations. Especially the KPI object and the possibility to integrate maps into the application is very helpful. Further to mention is the possibility to integrate external data via the Qlik Data Market which can really lead to new insights.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I would dislike. Qlik Sense is a completely new front end package and Qlik is developing it very quickly. I had the chance to watch the development since they started and now their latest version is in the stage that allows well designed dashboards. I´m looking forward to the new developments for this tool and I´m sure Qlik will surprise us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The big advantage that we see for us is the possibility for self service BI for all users regardless of their skills to write complex formulas. Also the new visualizations allow to make better designs with more information at the same time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The question most new customer have is probably if they should buy Qlik View or Qlik Sense. I would says it depends on what you are trying to do. Qlik View is perfect for guided analytics and can bring the focus exactly on the point. Qlik Sense is perfect for Self Service BI where the user has got the possibility to make his own dashboards and views.
Qlik Sense Data Visualization
What do you like best about the product?
Qlik Sense is very easy to use for an end user, and is responsive out of the box(works across all screen sizes). Once data is loaded into an app, it is extremely fast in the UI with almost no 'data chug' even with data sets with tens of millions of rows. It is very easy to extend Qlik Sense with custom visualizations or even use the data engine to build your own applications, the API is great. The community is solid and does a good job responding to inquiries in a timely manor
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI can be a bit inflexible, it would be nice to have non-responsive dashboards that allow us to break away from the snap to grid default. Larger sheet canvases would also be great.
The set analysis formula syntax, while powerful, can be difficult to learn for a new user.
I don't think that some of the resource filter options for security rules in the QMC are as well defined as they could be.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time to value accelerated greatly. We're able to consolidate thousands of reports into meaningful dashboard representations. This allows us to see the entire company from 5000 ft up and drill down to ground level as the situation requires it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try out Qlik Sense Desktop version, it's free and has almost every feature other than the enterprise administration features.
Dynamic Software with Apps anyone can use
What do you like best about the product?
How fast it can zoom in and out of data - we deal with millions upon millions of records. The speed at which we can zoom into a single day's individual location punch in by a single officer when the data set contains 1500 officers, for a 24/7 operation, over the course of 5 years, is astounding.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of training resources. Myself and our IT administrator took the advanced and administration courses respectively, and there is still a lot we need to learn. There really are no technical resources we can purchase, other than the 3 courses from Qlik Sense, the one official book on the market, or paying for a bevy of consultants.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a large scale security operation and we learned how we lose worked hours by various leave types (sickness, training, union work, bereavement, Vacation, etc.). We see where we are spending our Overtime costs the most, and using percentages to see where the inefficient regional sites are and how best to address the financial implications.
Our current production App for our Operations Team puts together a team structure by Operation Manager to Service Delivery Manager to Officer. It shows all of their locations, shift times, attendance (instances and hours), and a host of other information. With this, we are able to eliminate Excel, Sharepoint, and 1000s of emails to manage this.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take time with the solutions architect in learning how to deploy your company's data through Qlik Sense. This will tell you whether the software is right for you.
Also, ask about training resources, as we went through trial by fire - I took the advanced course and our IT administrator took the administration course. We felt that the resources provided through the courses were not sufficient, and we purchased the software to be largely self sustaining.
