The quick way to make integrations that work
What do you like best about the product?
We do a lot of field tests, trials and A/B testing of platforms for our events. Sometimes we also have to use a particular platform (registration, mobile app, etc.) for a particular event. That's where Blendr.io is useful for us: it allows us to quickly set up ad hoc integrations. I see it as a "professional IFTTT for event tech".
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing depends on how many jobs you run, so if you have large volumes, it can escalate. But for quick integrations at low volume or for testing, it's very cheap for what it gives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fills the gap when rapid API integration is needed. It saved us quite a lot of coding.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Maybe let them do your first integrations for you.
Integrations made easy
What do you like best about the product?
Blendr supports a wide range of connectors. We can pull data from any connector, transform it and update it into any other product. Blendr handles issues with third-party APIs like rate-limits and access token refresh gracefully. Blendr supports a wide range of webhooks to ensure that the data is always up to date. We can use our own private application during the OAuth flow, this ensures we can white label all parts of the user experience. The documentation is readily available, all of the platform features are very well documented.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are occasional bugs with the platform. The support team is quite responsive. They resolve any issues immediately.
Blendr supports a wide range of connectors, but some of the connectors are missing a few endpoints. We'll have to raise a support request, the team resolves that very fast.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a SaaS company. Our product fetches data from various CRMs, does some analysis and present it to the user. We use Blendr to handle all the communication with the CRMs. We found that Blendr does that part gracefully. We did not run into issues like rate-limits or expired tokens. Blendr also handles the API changes automatically.
Embedding Blendr into our SaaS platform was easy with the wide range of embedding options they provide.

Analyse your data at ease..
What do you like best about the product?
We can easily connect to data sources and can get a fruitful amount of insights which helps users for business with a great GUI.
What do you dislike about the product?
We need extensions to make it useful on par with Qlik view
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Qlik Sense helped me to get rid from most of my excel workbooks
Avoid custom development and integration headaches with Blendr.io
What do you like best about the product?
It's relatively easy to connect multiple datasources with Blendr. When you run into trouble the support team is pretty awesome too. It's a good fit for most martech stacks where you want to avoid custom development or where you want to have technical marketeers be in control of exchanging data between applications.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still needs some work on the user interface.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Connecting datasources (audience management) and automating lead flows (collect, clean, send)
Gaining Insights through Analytics using Qlik Sense
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to create a central reporting platform with governed security rules allows all your users to see the same version of the data and not be able to manipulate data like with spreadsheets.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although it is not the most expensive product on the market, using Qlik Sense does come at a substantial price. The product does not include all the features and additional features need to be purchased as add ons.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The automatic reloads in Qlik Sense have allowed us to automatically update reports on an hourly basis, within seconds, that took us hours to prepare. Now we can analyze and use the data rather than spending time preparing the data. The speed and availability of analytic ready data are now available regularly which has enabled us to take action on the insights gained.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Qlik Sense has been a great addition to our business and has empowered us to utilize more of our data.
Qlik offers a variety of options that even suit the smaller customer, might be worth looking at the Qlik cloud option.

Good BI dashboarding tool and powerful ETL tool
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to create throwaway apps using different data sources. Managing many-to-many relations is a breeze with the tool. Variables and master items are pretty handy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how hard it is to maintain some sort of framework (compared to Cognos). The QMC interface could use some more work as all the popup windows are too small to my liking and some options are not easily available without the API.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are providing dashboards to our users by mixing multiple data sources together.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a good software but keep in mind it's using a lot of partners for multiple third-party extensions and it gets costly very fast (even though the initial price is low).
Simple analytical tool for users but very powerful.
What do you like best about the product?
It is a tool that uses an associative data model that allows you to explore them in a very fast way and with a very fast learning curve for both analytical and non-technical users.
In addition, it has fully connected graphics that allow you to dive into the data easily to find the insights and the maps also provide great usability.
In the technical part, it has multiple connectors to be able to connect to almost any data source and it has a script part that allows the processing and modeling of the data in a simple and fast way. Working with Qlik .qvd files is very fast.

What do you dislike about the product?
The graphics part, although it has many graphics implemented, its configuration is quite restricted and allows little functionality in the formats.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Qlik has allowed us in an agile way to create dashboards for the various departments of the company, which homogenize the data and allow easy use for users, who also have the possibility of self-creating their own reports.
As general benefits, the access and use of the data from the reports is very fast. Users need very little knowledge to use it. The development script is simple but powerful, allowing you to process the data and create the necessary data model.

Great platform to expand your integration offering
What do you like best about the product?
You can build integration templates that your customers can activate within a couple of clicks.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes a bit of time to get used to the platform. I would suggest following a webinar or a free online course to learn the basics of the blend editor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We utilize blendr to sync data between multiple HRM platforms and our e-learning platform.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

What do you dislike about the product?
some functions in Qlik are note intuitive (yet) like pivots etc. Advanced tools in script editor etc needs skilled IT pro. More local training opportunities needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our main systems and ERP lack solid visualizations to meet our many reporting needs, we had to work too much in excel and data crunch over and over again.
We have now full interactive dashboards for management and operations. Data driven decision making is what we do on a daily basis.
