Comparison of Qlikview and Xcelsius

Posted by Gilles on 03/02/2009 under Articles | Be the First to Comment

You can read the comparison here: http://myxcelsius.com/2009/02/03/comparison-of-qlikview-and-xcelsius/

The article says that Qlikview has poorer visualisations, where I consider precisely that as a strong point of qlikview, next to speed of analysis, ease of use and others.  The part that truly matters, where it comes to extracting data, scripting possibilities,  speed,  costs, that’s where qlikview wins according to the author of the article. 

Anyway, read for yourself!
