Senior Systems Engineer (Sr. level II) at a insurance company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Gives us one repository for various output formats and retention periods
A common theme with all CA products is they state compatibility with new technologies when it has not yet been proven. Much like other technology companies that have fallen into this trap, let feature and compatibly releases be controlled by the technical group, instead of the marketing and/or management people. I cite the example that CA mainframe products were deemed to be compatible with Extended Address Volumes (EAV) - larger sized disk volumes - when they were not. I have been doing this for 37 years and see it all too often, sometimes to the detriment of the company itself (Storage Technology Corp. and its Iceberg array comes to mind).

Daily invoice analytics has become streamlined and complex data modeling is now simplified
We are not using analytics features and possibly predictive analytics and forecasting features in QlikView, although they are available. QlikView is very flexible, but we are currently using only tabular presentation of data because that is what we need. Presenting a large volume of data in QlikView with graphics can be overwhelming for the majority of people who want to see a lot of information in one picture. It would be beneficial to have AI or ML features in QlikView. However, I think they will decommission QlikView, and AI features are already available in Qlik Sense, so you would need to migrate to that platform.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Extremely stable and reliable, and easy to install."
"Flexibility of report configuration; allows for quick and simple amendments to definitions."
"Having one repository for various output formats and retention periods, with the flexibility to establish hundreds of different retention entries based upon business need and then group the like retention period outputs together on the same media, is very efficient."
"Having one repository for various output formats and retention periods. Provides the flexibility to establish hundreds of different retention entries, based upon business need, and then group the like retention period outputs together on the same media. It is very efficient."
"The benefits are that it keeps their information for over 40 to 50 years, so in essence it's a digital bank for customer information."
"Completeness in functionality and user friendliness are the product’s most valuable features."
"We realised instant value through data discovery not previously possible with traditional BI."
"QlikView Desktop Enterprise allows us to build dashboard visualizations in a fashionable way and allows us to make quick business decisions all over the enterprise."
"We have enabled a user self service reporting capability supported minimally by IT for linking and sourcing of data."
"The product enables top management with better decision making if utilized properly."
"A well designed app brings freedom of inquiry to meetings, allowing me to answer questions in real time and this has transformed progress and outputs of our monthly group meeting."
"This is a tool with a lot of functionality to provide any kind of reporting to customers, it has a range of solutions."
"QlikView is an excellent tool, though expensive compared to other BI tools, it provides ETL capability allowing the building of a complete data warehouse within Qlik Sense."
 

Cons

"Needs ability to allow export to xls/pdf, etc. (Note: this is available in add-on product CA – OM Web Viewer)."
"A common theme with all CA products is they state compatibility with new technologies when it has not yet been proven. I cite the example that CA mainframe products were deemed to be compatible with Extended Address Volumes (EAV) - larger sized disk volumes - when they were not."
"A common theme with all CA products is they state compatibility with new technologies when it has not yet been proven."
"I work with the developers so I get what I want built into the project."
"Needs ability to allow export to xls/pdf, etc. (Note: this is available in add-on product CA – OM Web Viewer)."
"Sometimes, dealing with complex reports requires more effort, which could be really improved."
"I have several lower-level users who don’t need full functionality of the tool, but do need to access more than one model. In this regard, the licensing structure is limiting and costly for a user who is not using the analytical aspects of the tool."
"Although Qliktech's road map clearly states that QlikView has a long way to go, most of the R&D effort seems to be benefiting Qlik Sense."
"Sometimes when developing QV applications, I encounter almost unexplainable errors that causes QV to crash."
"Error handling."
"We used the Nprinting extension, a great tool to create PDF reports, but the tool is not stable and installation was difficult before being able to use it."
"They could improve the speed."
"This cannot be considered a self-service product. It requires IT support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"​Pricing is reasonable, licensing model suitable for large enterprises."
"My firm got the product at a cheap price, but in general, I believe that the product is a bit costly."
"It's reasonably priced and falls on the more affordable side."
"It is not very expensive. I think it it is on par with other similar products on the market."
"Its licensing costs are moderate, but it can get expensive due to the numerous add-ons available like those for printing."
"It is quite expensive, rating at around nine out of ten on a cost scale."
"The setup costs for QlikView are fair as are the yearly maintenance fees. The licensing becomes a bit more expensive and requires some planning for onboarding."
"It has an annual license. It is expensive as compared to other competitive tools that do more for less. In South African rands, we pay about 100,000 to 200,000 a year."
"The pricing is too high compared to the other solutions on the market."
