Qlik Sense Likes & Dislikes
One of the most amazing things about Qlik Sense is its associative engine, we just need to feed our data into the system and it automatically associates fields between the data model, and this can make analysis very fast, Second is its QVD feature which is used to store raw data from the source directly into it and we can use this same QVD across multiple applications without disturbing our main source all the time, we can use it to store incremental data as well from the source daily and one of the main features of QVD is it can compress and optimize the data which can help it load faster as well, Third is its ETL capability to handle complex data from multiple sources, whether the data is in FTP, API or any old SAP version, we can consolidate it very easily.It can handle heavy data as well without slowing the system, For any level of deep analysis these things are very important and Qlik Sense does it amazingly.
We like to self service dashboard, Ing and the smart search to use keywords to discover relevant metrics, fields, or associations quickly.
Customer service is outstanding. We sometimes come across niche bugs in a variety of versions of Qlik's products, and customer service is always willing to help us out. Usually, they're extremely knowledgeable. What we appreciate is their willingness to admit they also don't know why the bug occurs. It doesn't happen often, but when it does happen, we much prefer that stance.
One is visualization, some of the features of the chart are outdated, we can't modify some complex features as they are rigid even though they have been improving but they need to make some changes regarding this, Second is the learning curve for advanced users, they will need to write a lot of code compared to other BI tools, to apply some filters as well they would need to write some extra code, which is kind of frustrating and because of these things it has a steep learning curve, Third is costing, Qlik Sense is expensive for users compared to other BI tools which are mostly free for making dashboard, but for even creating a single dashboard they would need to pay, even though they have 30 days trial but after 30 days they can't do anything
Nothing in particular, however, the associative engine performs best when data is modeled carefully. Poorly structure data can lead to performance issues or unexpected associations.
During the first few years it was impossible for a Qlik Sense dashboard to get its data reloaded without giving the analyst full control over the dashboard. It took a bit of effort to convince Qlik that no: most of the people using these dashboards aren't data analysts. A company may have a few data analysts in-house or contracted who create the dashboards for others to consume. Those consumers neither need to be editing the dashboards, nor do they need to be reloading data at will or adjusting data models. So we needed the ability to publish a locked-down version of a dashboard that allowed filtering, searching, and slicing... and nothing else.

Associative Engine Enhances Analysis, While Learning Curve Remains A Concern
Qlik Sense is a tool that is used to create dashboards for analysis and reporting for users, using multiple sources.It is something a user with less technical knowledge about the tool can work on as well and as an expert you can create scripts at a very high level with a single tool. The level of complex scripts you can write on it with ease and speed is something that is very amazing.Some native charts are slightly outdated and plain, but with each update they are making sure the users get the latest tech.I have also used different types of BI tools in which they need additional tool just to do complex ETL which makes things more complex for users but with Qlik Sense we don't need to worry about that, we can create any level of complex ETL with it. - Sr. Software Architect50M-1B USDManufacturingReview Source
Customer Support Remains Strong as Qlik Cloud Faces Interface and Access Limitations
Qlik has provided excellent customer support despite our troublesome implementation. Making user interfaces easy to use is a difficult art, and that is noticeable when navigating the Qlik Cloud to administer changes to an analytics dashboard or a data pool. Qlik Cloud offers all the tools and services, but sometimes that is exactly what makes them hard to find. On a positive note, the tooling allows for plug-ins made by third parties, thus creating a lively and thriving ecosystem full of opportunity. - Haed of Business Navigation, Strategical planning50M-1B USDManufacturingReview Source
Ease of Use Balanced by Difficult Migration to Qlik Sense
The tool is very effective and offers great potential. However, we might not be fully aware of all its functionalities. One of the most challenging and time-consuming aspects has been the migration to Qsense. This is the second company I've worked for where the coexistence of two systems has created difficulties during transition. It seems to be a common issue that deserves more structured support of guidance. - IT Manager50M-1B USDIT ServicesReview Source
QlikSense Offers Robust Flexibility But Demands Steep Learning Curve For Developers
As a BI developer employed for one of the most important players in the Italian FMCG sector, I've used QlikSense extensively to design and maintain dashboards supporting the HR department, specifically for staff selection and recruiting analytics. QlikSense is very flexible when it comes to data modeling, set analysis and advanced scripting. While the product requires a solid learning curve for developers (especially around Qlik scripting and performance tuning), the overall value delivered across data integration, governance and dashboard interactivity, makes it a strong platform for enterprise BI initiatives. - DATA ANALYTICS TECHNICIAN50M-1B USDConsumer GoodsReview Source
I think it could improve a lot more with some focus on key functions needed by customers
Fast Implementation for Deployment and ETL. Also you can build standard apps very fast. It needs improvement on visualizations,Reporting and security configuration.
