Chose Altair SmartSight
I have evaluated a lot of tools like Power BI, Tableau, Orange etc..
Altair smart sight stacks up against all the products mentioned above because it comes with a wide variety of applications and services like Big Data, IoT services, Embedded systems, cloud-based service, data visualization, Machine learning, dashboarding, and much more. I have …
Altair SmartSight stacks up against other competitors when it comes to user experience and performance on a limited amount of data (<2M records). Moreover Carriots Analytics has a good customer service and an efficient and prepared expertise service. It is less efficient when …
QlikView, Tableau, and SiSense are all very good BI tools for analysis and reporting. Tableau was better at intuitively matching fields of disparate data and more visually appealing, but I think QlikView is faster. Tableau was also easier for someone to use to build and …
I think it all comes down to personal preference and integration compatibility with the existing systems in the organization. However, I would argue that Qlik and PowerBI are the top-tier available solutions due to robust features and capabilities, and I would put solutions …
With QlikView and Qlik Sense the users can answer their own questions more interactively. They also can build their own visualizations without waiting [for] someone from IT to create a new report. The users can navigate through the data finding out relevant information. Through …
We have not necessarily used any direct competitors to QlikView, but we have used other analysis and reporting software that has worked better for us because of the type of data that we are analyzing. There are also cheaper options out there that are definitely better.
When integrating the tool years ago, we looked at other options including the out of the box reporting features from our current ERP software, The user interface and report-ability was very difficult to use and scale across may different business models in our group. We also …
There are more than 1700 partners in the world that could implement a QlikView solution, and these associates tend to have a long and close relationship with the customer, and ultimately lead up to understanding the customer's needs at 100%. Also, the software is very scalable …
MS Power BI and other BI tools have similar functions to QlikView and some of them also have much cheaper price. However, the strength of QlikView is that it is much easier to use and to learn. If you need to train a new person to learn the tool, it costs around 1-2 days.
QlikView has its own data warehouse, which is the most important reason why would I choose QlikView over any other tools. Apart from that, the feature options are good for the ones who know the tool well but created a steeper learning curve in the beginning. Once you went …
Qlik was less intuitive than Paxata, but less expensive than either MicroStrategy or PowerBI. Qlik has enough breadth to accommodate most use cases without breaking the bank.
It is inexpensive and cost prohibited software. Has alot of canned reports that you would need and doesn't request much development work. Widely adopted as an industry leader and works well with many of the top data source applications. Very easy to use and intuitive in the …
We use it as a part of our Office 365 tool. With that tool, we do not have an option to download the reports and send them to customers, but with Qlikview we can.
QlikView is very similar to Tableau. However, I believe it is a cheaper solution, and that is why our company has chosen QlikView. It has been able to handle large, large amounts of data sets, and has been pretty agile for our business needs.
My use of Cognos was as an embedded BI tool inside of a cloud HCM. At the time, you could not marry up data from other external sources with that version. QlikView makes it easy to connect data from multiple sources. As a BI tool I do prefer the Cognos set up, but that's more …

QlikView was already chosen and implemented before I started [to work here], but it is very easy to learn (for me) and I started to solve problems within a day or two.

Chose QlikView
While I may have to export the data, I was doing so anyway to get it into excel to drive better visualizations of the data. When I discovered PowerBI and all it had available I no longer had a need for QlikView.
The first thing we liked about QlikView was the price. For a small amount per user, I can have a very useful software to manage the whole data set our company uses. The Tableau desktop has very high pricing for the software, and for just one user, not the whole organization. …
Qlikview is more outdated compared to Qlik Sense. Qlik Sense puts more of the power onto the users to create their own dashboards while QlikView tends to be managed by BI teams.
Information about each profile and task execution is also available, such as active sessions for profile configuration details and internal connections created for the profile. The task viewer shows all tasks running in the application along with their status and other information about each task. In case of problems, this is useful for looking up the details of a task and providing information to the system administrator or helpdesk.
Sales data validations have helped manage our justifications in the past, especially with regard to new product development and new business introduction. It has also been helpful in identifying trends with business impact and direction specific to quarter and monthly sales from ERP data as well as decisions to purchase equipment of staffing based on run rates and product demand.
One thing that can get out of hand is data output - if you aren't careful in your query, you may be overloaded with data dumps and drown in the amount of info you have to filter through. This is a user caution, not a comment on the software itself.
We found that QlikView can be a bit slow in supporting some forms of encryption. It is web-based and we needed to upgrade all of our server to not support the older SSL and TLS 1 protocols, only support TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3. However, QlikView could not run with TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3. We had to wait over six months to get a version that would handle the newer TLS versions.
There are so many options with QlikView that you can get lost when developing a visualization. There are still items I have not yet figured out, such as labeling a graph with the name of a selected detail item.
QlikView works by pulling the data it is going to use for visualization into its database. I am a security reviewer and I need to make certain that PII and PHI is not pulled by QlikView for a visualization, otherwise this could become a reportable indecent.
Ease of use, ability to load from pretty much any data source. today I created an application that loaded time sheets from excel that are not in a table format. With Qlik's "enable transformation steps" I was able to automate loads of multiple spreadsheets and multiple tabs easily. Could not do that with any other tool.
As I already shared the details related to Altair Smart Sight It comes with a wide range of products that is really helpful for an organization that wants to design its dashboards, Embeds application, and much more. Products like Big Data, IoT services, Embedded systems, cloud-based services, data visualization, Machine learning, dashboarding, and much more. And No one is perfect there is always a place for improvement So Because of that I am giving it a 9.
I do think there is a steep learning curve to the program and that it requires a high level of experience or a data scientist background to fully take advantage and implement dashboards, and users will require ongoing training to maximize ROI, but it is absolutely worth it considering the impact it can make on an organization.
You can rapidly adjust your account, such as changing your email or password. We may learn about the app, the engines available for creating execution profiles, and add-ons. Accessibility to the Community and help materials are also available from the same site
The documentation presented by QlikView is very clear and exact. This makes the process of implementation more easy. If any questions arise while creating the reports it is very easy to access the QlikView documents through the internet. QlikView also has a Qlik Community, full of different questions and answers. This helps a lot to resolve issues even without contacting the support team.
My team attended, but I cannot myself rate, but I think it was good as they've successfully launched a training program at our company themselves for users. It was 3-4 day training.
Training was as expected. The demo environments tend to be more fully featured that our own environment, but the training was clear and well delivered.
It has taken some time to get used to Qlikview and the backend team behind it. From understanding the new regulations on using less images and also pushing for more tools (such as full compatibility on desktop, laptop, ipad, phone). We were given training on this and have helpful tips to find analytics behind Qlikview but it is very much also a learn as you implement system.
Altair smart sight stacks up against all the products mentioned above because it comes with a wide variety of applications and services like Big Data, IoT services, Embedded systems, cloud-based service, data visualization, Machine learning, dashboarding, and much more. I have used the other products like Logi Composer, Tableau CRM, and PowerBI but they only handle the specific use cases. So Because of that Altair Smartsight really provide a good and wide range of solution.
With QlikView and Qlik Sense the users can answer their own questions more interactively. They also can build their own visualizations without waiting [for] someone from IT to create a new report. The users can navigate through the data finding out relevant information. Through QlikView color code, users can get aware of the relationship between the different data points.
Speed to market is the really big thing. You can attach to multiple data sources quickly and build a consumable model for a dashboard. It doesn’t require IT talent to build. We have built more dashboards and added more users in the last year, then in our entire history. I was at a company of 30k+ employees before, and we didn't have near this level of BI adoption.
As a result, we are seeing benefits across business function. For example, within sales, our pipeline has much more visibility. It allows for much faster decisions on things like quotas. One of our biggest power users is in sales ops. She feels her dashboards load 10x faster than our previous tool and she can make changes on the fly.
