We performed a comparison between Anaconda and Qlik Sense based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."With Anaconda Navigator, we have been able to use multiple IDEs such as JupyterLab, Jupyter Notebook, Spyder, Visual Studio Code, and RStudio in one place. The platform-agnostic package manager, "Conda", makes life easy when it comes to managing and installing packages."
"The most valuable feature is the set of libraries that are used to support the functionality that we require."
"The most advantageous feature is the logic building."
"The most valuable feature is the Jupyter notebook that allows us to write the Python code, compile it on the fly, and then look at the results."
"It helped us find find the optimal area for where our warehouse should be located."
"The notebook feature is an improvement over RStudio."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its cloud-based nature, allowing accessibility from anywhere. Additionally, using Jupyter Notebook makes it easy to handle bugs and errors."
"The product is responsive, sleek and has a beautiful interface that is pleasant to use. It helps users to easily share code."
"Qlik Sense makes it very easy to build interactive presentations for meetings."
"My organization now has data from disparate systems at their fingertips in a way that lets them get the answers they need when they want it."
"The visualizations are good and keep improving."
"All the visualizations have been so valuable."
"We have been using Qlik Sense to generate reports that have taken hours to prepare before that we are now able to update in a couple of minutes and are available to users on a centralized platform where they are able to get the required reports."
"This tool not only allows for consumption of the data in a visual way, but also allows the user to modify the question to get new answers."
"The changes in a dashboard are very easy."
"We can easily and quickly deploy new dashboards that reach a wide audience and any changes get reflected almost instantaneously for the users."
"It crashes once in a while. In case of a reboot or something unexpected, the unseen code part will get diminished, and it relatively takes longer than other applications when a reboot is happening. They can improve in these areas. They can also bring some database software. They have software for analytics and virtualization. However, they don't have any software for the database."
"When you install Anaconda for the first time, it's really difficult to update it."
"Anaconda could benefit from improvement in its user interface to make it more attractive and user-friendly. Currently, it's boring."
"Having a small guide or video on the tool would help learn how to use it and what the features are."
"I think that the framework can be improved to make it easier for people to discover and use things on their own."
"Anaconda should be optimized for RAM consumption."
"The interface could be improved. Other solutions, like Visual Studio, have much better UI."
"One feature that I would like to see is being able to use a different language in a different cell, which would allow me to mix R and Python together."
"Qlik Sense could include additional features for data preparation and integration, making it easier for users to clean, transform, and integrate data from various sources."
"Multi-server deployment: not just cloud, but on premise too, and hybrid. Needs lighter protocols to communicate between the different services and with the clients."
"They should generally focus more on the evolution of current capabilities rather than doing everything but only at 50% effectiveness."
"Qlik has a fast learning curve due to great online training resources (Qlik continuous classroom), but those are lacking the advance features like building extensions and using the API."
"We want the next version of this solution to be cloud-based so that each user can access it from anywhere in the world with their phone, tablet, or computer without a VPN connection."
"As we are a very process-oriented company, we would like to see more extensions maintained from Qlik, because it's a huge budget problem to choose the right one."
"More options for the layout."
"Integrated maps should become part of the Qlik Sense, as opposed to buying an additional module just to power the BI, which has it built-in natively within the application."
