Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Tableau, Oracle and others in Reporting."The most valuable aspect is its extensive library on Microsoft, providing a robust framework for implementation."
"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."
"QlikView is one of the strongest tools, I would say. Also, it has a very vast capability to process the data"
"You can do a lot of things on the back end which are not possible in the other solutions on the market."
"Scripting as per a customer's need, which is a pretty cool feature and not available in other tools."
"You can switch views easily."
"The language support is very good."
"It's incredibly fast and can handle large volumes of data without slowing down our operations."
"The reporting of the solution is very good."
"The sum solution, NTA, and DPA."
"Some of the most valuable features of SolarWinds are the topology discovery and network performance analysis."
"I have found the most valuable feature is application performance management."
"The product has a great dashboard."
"Technical support is always live and they're supportive."
"They could improve the update time."
"The only thing I would improve about it is the fact that it refreshes all the time, and when it does that, it just deletes all the options you had, all the filters that you had selected, so you need to select them from the beginning."
"There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns."
"The tool is expensive in Turkey."
"Scalability really depends on the size of your data and QlikView server architecture. For the biggest data sets, it could become an issue at some point."
"The user interface and ease of use takes a bit of a learning curve to pick up."
"I really wish the application was easier to use in the development phase."
"This solution would be improved with the inclusion of a feature that would allow us to add a common library of (our) commands used in load scripts and expressions, so with a keyword, we would get a drop down to select the command we are looking for, as opposed to the generic help."
"I would like to see more integration with other tools that are available on the market."
"The solution should be more user-friendly."
"The implementation needs improvement. It needs to get modernized with the newer cloud scenario in both public and private deployment models."
"The integration with Unix services should be a bit more straightforward."
"In terms of the technology, I think they need to put some more advanced troubleshooting into SolarWinds, in terms of AI capabilities. That's the next generation, especially in the cases of APIs which have already adopted AI capabilities into their products."
"AppOptics would benefit from having a much more centralized view."
