Powerful BI tool for analyzing financial performance and stable performance
I would rate the scalability of Jedox a seven out of ten. There is room for improvement in the scalability. It is a very massive tool. It's not easy to just build everything yourself. So that's where the main improvements lie—making it easy for people to not depend on just technical finance teams. There are almost 50 to 60 users using Jedox in our organization.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ETL function simplifies many tasks."
"The ease of reporting is one of Jedox's most valuable features."
"The data entry point is most valuable. The way we can customize our report or do data entry is very good."
"The ETL itself was pretty useful and it's integrated in the tenant itself. So the Olap service technology was impressive to me. In order to extract that and load it in the tube in the same tenant or the same tool that was something magnificent because I actually missed this in SEB. SEB requires another tool, and you have to integrate all the tools together. But for Jedox, it was in the one tool."
"The solution is very versatile."
"We use the tool for performance management and planning."
"The main strength of Jedox lies in mastering the navigation, especially the Excel add-in."
"We can configure and have complete freedom while creating solutions."
"The most valuable aspect is its extensive library on Microsoft, providing a robust framework for implementation."
"It has user-friendly data visualization features, supporting our decision-making process with its business intelligence capabilities"
"It's incredibly fast and can handle large volumes of data without slowing down our operations."
"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 very cool application with endless options of creativity and visuals."
"One of the good thing is that you can integrate different data source technologies. So you can model your environment without having any of our views running."
"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."
"It is useful to use a tool like this to have a view of data at a point in time. You can extract and create little data sets that you can store, and then over time, you can have a view for tracking changes. Especially when you work with a relational database or a database that's a production database, the data is dynamic, but if you use QlikView, you can take a snapshot of different datasets. In your own time, you can then get insights and report, build, analyze, and draw whatever you need from the data, which is quite useful."
 

Cons

"I don't find it particularly user-friendly."
"Visualization is something they need to improve. We have already told them about this, and they should be working on it."
"Jedox should improve the design and server issues."
"From a development perspective, there's room for improvement in the area called the designer, where you actually build your reports to make it easier to manage the process."
"There is not much training for Jedox."
"I think it's the design of the report because the design and the UI for the report is standard and lame. When you see a Jedox report, it doesn't seem like it's from today, because the technology is something from the last decade. The scalability needs improvement."
"Online pixel-perfect reporting is an aspect that has room for improvement."
"The solution should enable a modern look and feel in the front end."
"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."
"The tool is expensive in Turkey."
"More/newer visualisation components need to be added."
"Sometimes the filters are disappearing, and I'm not sure why this is happening."
"Syntax editor needs some work, it's frustrating to have valid syntax being flagged as incorrect."
"I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase."
"QlikView's UI could be more user-friendly."
"There is a lack of static PDF report generation and automatic resizing of the dashboard to fit the device."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Excellent value for money."
"Jedox was a bit cheaper compared to Calumo."
"If you are using SAP, then you will have to take an SAP Connector license. The license across the tool is paying for the people who are using it as an admin or as a normal user. They can work out those costs in a manner that can help. This can also be a point of improvement where they can work out the costing, and the developers have a specific licensing cost. The normal users, who are going to do probably data entry or just going to view the dashboard, can have a separate license cost."
"The solution's pricing is specific to your requirements."
"We paid a one-time fee, which included product purchase, licensing, and first-time implementation. We are paying for the maintenance regularly."
"The product’s pricing will not be suitable for setting up a small solution."
"It is not very expensive. I think it it is on par with other similar products on the market."
"It is quite expensive, rating at around nine out of ten on a cost scale."
"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 moderate, in the medium price range."
"It's reasonably priced and falls on the more affordable side."
"I rate QlikView's pricing a five out of ten."
"Qlik is fairly high in terms of pricing."
"My firm got the product at a cheap price, but in general, I believe that the product is a bit costly."
