    Considered Both Products
    Qlik
    Chose QlikView
    Tableau is aesthetically interactive. QV is easier to customise and the set analysis is very powerful

    Chose QlikView
    TIBCO Spotfire and Tableau were other systems considered. Both of these products are very good and they all have different strengths. QlikView best met our business needs because of its ability to load multiple data sources directly, handle ETL logic on the data load, delivers …
    Spotfire
    Chose Spotfire
    It's better than Tableau but licensing is expensive. I think QlikView is better as they give free version for single users.

    Chose Spotfire
    Spotfire is better at visualizations than Qlik Sense and more intuitive and friendly than QlikView, but it´s worst than both of them in ETL and associative engine.
    Incentivized
    Chose Spotfire
    Tableau rich in visuals and customization but easily breaks with large volume and complex drill downs. Spotfire being an enterprise level tool, handles it better. QlikView is great at handling large volumes of data but the visuals are not intuitive enough. Comparatively, …

    Better than Tableau for my needs. QlikView was very similar, but did not interact as well with native SQL Data.

    Chose Spotfire

    We compared Spotfire 7 to QlikView. QlikView is much older and very less easy to use for analysts (if you use QlikView from time to time, you will need 1 hour before each use to remember how to do things). QlikView is also only an in-memory tool which makes it less powerful.

    It provides all tools along with in-built apps for analysis and generating reports, metrics, charts, and graphs. Comes with appropriate costing model at least for an average size organization

    Chose Spotfire
    Within our use cases Spotfire is preferred due to the ability to manage live data as well as big data in an appropriate time. It is also much better in statistics and advanced analytics.

    Chose Spotfire
    We are dealing with and evaluate as many data analytics and BI tools as it is feasible for us in order to be able to suggest the best tool to our clients. Spotfire is strong in intuitive and easy to learn analytics, plus it has built-in functionality to work with R, which is a …

    Chose Spotfire
    Ease of integration with open source R and mapping feature are positive.
    Incentivized
    Chose Spotfire
    I use Spotfire since it allows me to work with more than 200.000 rows and Excel does not. Also reporting with a simple link to a spot fire server is very professional in the sense that you don't have to go back and forth with heavy attached files like Excel spreadsheets or PPTs.
