THE ADVANTAGES OF A QLIKVIEW / QLIK SENSE COMBINATION

As mentioned in the previous comparison, an "either-or" is not always advisable for the two Qlik BI tools. Rather, the combined use of both tools can make a lot of sense. Because each product has its strengths! 

QlikView is great for developing and deploying  detailed, guided applications and profound data analysis. Layout and design can thereby be fine-tuned. For example, the software can be used by your internal BI developers (or BI power users) who develop BI analytics apps for business users.

Qlik Sense fulfils the requirements of guided data analysis, but also introduces the possibility of modern "self-service BI". The self-service functionality can be provided to users who need simple and individual analyses in their function. It is also possible to work across disciplines (e.g. marketing & sales).
Fully web-based, modern and intuitive, the user can create interactive and intelligent visualisations with smart search and drag-and-drop. Qlik Sense is also designed to be fully responsive, making it an important decision-making criterion for power users or sales representatives.

Qlik Sense also provides advanced data visualisation capabilities such as, for example, geo-analysis maps. Qlik Sense experts are still needed. Particularly for larger projects with a connection to an existing data infrastructure, expertise is required to ensure a clean connection as well as the efficient and high-performance development of the data model.

Both business intelligence solutions will have their raison d'être on the market for a longer time, as it still makes sense for some companies to run both products in parallel. More about that in the following section and in the webinar.
