We performed a comparison between Qlik Sense and ServiceNow based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tableau, Qlik, Splunk and others in Data Visualization."Qlik Sense is essentially a web-based tool even though it's on-prem – you're working off an HTML page – so it's pretty quick. Your processing speed does not matter because you're using a lot of stuff through the web. That's great because it brings down the cost in regards to hardware."
"Qlik has made life easier by visualising data."
"The integration with R & Python for predictive modeling, and possibly machine learning in the future, is very valuable."
"The drag and drop UI has been the most useful to me."
"The flexibility of a non-IT developed solution allows for fast to market solutions."
"The drag-and-drop dashboard builder is an intuitive interface for building dashboards from source reports."
"Business users have been able to use the BI self-serve model."
"Qlik was the first company to implement an in-memory associative analytics engine. This basically means that all data is loaded into memory, but it also means that instead of joining data together, the data is associated together. From the front end, from the UI point of view, data can be joined or included or excluded on the fly. It can be drilled down and drilled through and users can slice and dice it and that type of thing can be done from anywhere in the data to any other place in the data. It doesn't have to be predefined. It doesn't have to have hierarchies or anything like that."
"The most valuable feature is that this is a Cloud solution."
"ServiceNow is very easy to set up."
"I really like ServiceNow and all of the features. The way incident management is built is very helpful. You have a lot of options to optimize it, customize it, and automate it. You also have a lot of options for reporting. There are plenty of possibilities to do preference management within your customer CMDB file. These are very useful features, which I missed in BMC Remedy ITSM. ServiceNow is the best ticketing tool I have used so far."
"ServiceNow gives us a lot for free: workflows, organizational structures, service portal, forms, reporting, disaster recovery, and so on."
"Data in reports and dashboards are easily accessible."
"For the nuts and bolts running of an IT organization, I can't really say there's anything lacking feature-wise."
"We always get good support."
"It's a very low-code platform, and it's simple. The user experience is also really good."
"Report generation without the need for NPrinting, which has limited capabilities anyway, would be an improvement."
"The SaaS offering is being enriched quickly in order to attract new customers to that space and encouraging existing customers to make the switch. The Enterprise solution is therefore lagging behind SaaS in features."
"I would like to see more native features from QlikView integrated into Qlik Sense."
"Qlik Sense should have a conversion tool which automatically converts QlikView to Qlik Sense, so customers can easily migrate between the products of Qlik."
"Needs more bookmarking and a data load screen."
"The augmented intelligence features don't work well for the analytical user."
"I would like to see Qlik add more DevOps functionality to their product. Currently, we have to turn to 3rd party products to handle things like Source Control, Code Deployment through environments, etc."
"I am not really a fan of the set analysis. It's its own language that doesn't quite make a whole lot of sense to me at this point. I wish it were more intuitive."
"Loads slower than expected, and its user interface needs improvement. Support for this product also needs to improve on their response time."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved and given a better design."
"The standard UI is very restricted. It doesn't look as good, compared to Remedy. Building your own UI requires some additional coding..."
"The installation and deployment of ServiceNow can be a bit challenging. One major issue I've encountered is that ServiceNow doesn't provide the same mobile responsiveness or features that we used to enjoy with other tools. For example, with Splunk, our response times were about five minutes, and we could manage alerts and incidents directly from our mobile devices."
"Local solutions have lower costs."
"HR Service Management is one module that needs a lot of improvement because it's a pretty new module. It was introduced in the last two years. It's becoming more mature day by day, but there is a lot of scope for improvement in that module."
"The customer service of the product right now isn't very good. It's an aspect they really need to improve."
"I do not like the user interface."
