However, once you have gained proficiency with its layout and how to drag, drop, and connect components, it becomes remarkably easy, yet still thorough.""Alteryx's development environment could be improved as it requires installation locally and can't be developed in the cloud.""The technical support could have a little bit of improvement."

More Alteryx Cons →

"I would like to see more advanced features from Qlik Sense integrated into QlikView to keep it competitive and up-to-date.""Installation and deployment could be made easier and quicker.""There is a lack of static PDF report generation and automatic resizing of the dashboard to fit the device.""They could improve the update time.""There's room for improvement in the area of management's handling of concerns.""It would be nice if QlikView could be plugged in into the company's website or an online portal such as QlikSense is capable of. There are ways around but it takes enormous time to develop.""Needs improvement with UI transparency.""QlikView certainly lacks in its ability to share visualizations or create visualizations easily."
