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scripts you can write on it with ease and speed is something that is very amazing.Some native charts are slightly outdated and plain, but with each update they are making sure the users get the latest tech.I have also used different types of BI tools in which they need additional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

7. SAP BusinessObjects BI Suite

By SAP

4.2

SAP BO BI Suite is a solid platform with both strengths and some limitations. On the positive side, I found SAP DataServices to be an excellent ETL tool, it's powerful, reliable, and integrates well for managing complex data processes. When it comes to reporting, Business Objects does deliver strong capabilities, but the solution feels somewhat obsolete and complicated on the backend compared to more modern BI tools. While it gets the job done, the architecture feels dated. Overall, it's a dependable suite with robust functionality, especially on the ETL side (new cloud connectors would be useful), but it could benefit from modernization and simplification in its reporting components. Let's see what new features and capabilities SAP BI 2025 will introduce!Read all insights and reviews for SAP BusinessObjects BI Suite
