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scripts you can write on it with ease and speed is something that is very amazing.Some native charts are slightly outdated and plain, but with each update they are making sure the users get the latest tech.I have also used different types of BI tools in which they need additional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.

    QlikSense Offers Robust Flexibility But Demands Steep Learning Curve For Developers

    4.0
    Jul 24, 2025
    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.

    Ease of Use Balanced by Difficult Migration to Qlik Sense

    4.0
    Jul 31, 2025
    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.
