Real-time dashboards have transformed our contact center decisions and performance management
If I talk about features or aspects that need improvement, the first concern is information overload and dashboard clutter. The biggest complaint I hear is that the dashboard contains so much data that new users often feel overwhelmed. Even though it is rated eight out of ten for data discovery, users suggest better ways to hide or filter metrics until needed. Best practices suggest that successful teams start with three to four KPIs on their wallboard and then add more later. Another improvement users wish for is audio alerts; they want sound notifications when calls hit a queue or SLA drops. Currently, it is visual-only, necessitating constant screen monitoring, which can be a gap for busy supervisors. Third, the interactive data visualization layer scores eight out of ten, but users request more interactive charts. Currently, it is clean and efficient, yet lacks the drag-and-drop explorability of Tableau or Domo. Additionally, there is mention of enterprise scalability; eMite users state that while it is well-suited for small to mid-scale companies, it struggles with large companies that have huge data volumes, often resulting in performance issues and dashboard load complications. The mobile app is another area of improvement; while it is good, some users request more admin controls via mobile, as it is currently better for viewing and drill-down rather than configuration changes. Lastly, the learning curve for custom KPIs also needs attention. Regarding additional needed improvements, the custom KPIs feature is a strength but setting them up is not plug-and-play. Non-analyst users sometimes require assistance from the IT data team to construct formulas. Furthermore, the alert system is the most common request, with users desiring configuration for audio alerts and push notifications when queues exceed a certain number of calls, SLAs drop below a specific percentage, or when agents are not ready for too long. Currently, it is visual-only, causing supervisors to potentially miss spikes if they momentarily look away from the wallboard. Additionally, customizing dashboards for non-technical users presents challenges; while the drill-down feature is powerful, building custom dashboards and KPIs involves a learning curve. Teams seek more drag-and-drop widgets and templates; at present, IT data folks typically need to set this up and then hand it off.

Improved AI-driven dashboards have accelerated decisions but still need better visuals and faster refresh
Absolutely, nothing is entirely positive, and everything has both advantages and disadvantages. When I worked with Qlik Sense, circular charts were not available, which meant I had to look for alternative solutions that would be reliable or make the functionality work. There are some features that need to be added. Additionally, there is a limit to the number of fields that can be added in Qlik Sense, and I believe it would be beneficial if they increased the count for fields and columns. There might be requirements where an Excel file contains many columns that need to be displayed as visual representations to clients, and in those situations, it becomes very difficult and I have to use alternative approaches. When this problem arose, I used HTML code to write a solution and make it work. Qlik Sense should avoid these types of limitations in future updates. Another issue is page resolution. If a client wants to view the dashboard on a single page without scrolling, bar charts appear small and the values in KPIs, bar charts, scatter plots, and line graphs cannot be seen very clearly. Adding more extensions to make the job easier would also be beneficial. Improvements to reporting would be helpful as well, because working with large datasets makes reporting very difficult. Additionally, when data is refreshed, it cannot be completed in a short timeframe. Refreshing very large datasets can take one, two, or even three hours, so reducing the refresh time would be very useful for customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Users state that eMite is designed for real-time querying and personalized views for business and IT, emphasizing that the shift is from reactive to proactive resolution of queue spikes, now fixed in minutes as opposed to discovering them in the next day's report."
"The most valuable features of Qlik Sense are its speed and seamless development of web technologies."
"It is a great platform for third party extensions, has an open API, and there are no black boxes."
"Logistics work more efficient in real-time data."
"The overall ability to build quick wins with simple data to drive insights."
"Qlik Sense is very stable. I would rate the stability a ten out of ten. Even for rare issues, we receive good support from Qlik. It's a very stable solution."
"The most valuable feature of Qlik Analytics Platform is its Change Data Capture capability."
"We can easily and quickly deploy new dashboards that reach a wide audience and any changes get reflected almost instantaneously for the users."
"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."
 

Cons

"Additionally, there is mention of enterprise scalability; eMite users state that while it is well-suited for small to mid-scale companies, it struggles with large companies that have huge data volumes, often resulting in performance issues and dashboard load complications."
"It needs continued improvement on its visualizations and content customization."
"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."
"They should generally focus more on the evolution of current capabilities rather than doing everything but only at 50% effectiveness."
"Qlik dashboards are not friendly with end-users, but they have been enhancing this shorted in some recent releases and next releases hopefully."
"Qlik Sense (as for ver 3.1) is still missing some key functionality that QlikView has."
"Data modelling automation needs improvement."
"I would like to see improvements in the Qlik Sense SaaS version, particularly in the front-end capabilities."
"They need to make security rules to access applications and data security easier and customizable."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Understand the break over price point for switching to the Enterprise license."
"The license mechanism of Qlik is quite complicated and not exchangeable. Such as 2016, they charge licenses by token, 1500$ for a token / 1 user. 2018: they change to 2 kinds of licenses: professional 1500$ / user, analyzer 800$ / user. 2019: they support subscription with 70$ Monthly for professional, 40$ monthly for analyzers, but for those you’re using perpetual licenses, they don't support acquiring more subscription licenses. The maintenance fee yearly are also high, 20% of the perpetual license."
"The solution is worth it."
"Qlik Sense pricing and licensing is like that of QlikView. It's on the high side for a small company, but it’s competitive among its peers. Use of licenses (referred to as tokens) is a bit confusing. There is a login access pass for infrequent or anonymous access."
"QlikSense offers a Hybrid environment architecture, which is very cost effective based on where the enterprise data resides."
"Ultimately, the cost is low, and it implements fast. The limiting factor is how quickly your staff can keep up."
"The product is expensive compared to one of its competitors."
"I would rate Qlik's pricing four out of five."
