Microsoft SQL Server vs Qlik Sense: Which is best for you?

All databases stored in sql server can be easily accessed in other systems such as powerbi and excel with your existing account credentials and just by providing database and table names

The tricky part is some of the advanced stuff—it can get complicated if you’re diving into things like SSIS or Analysis Services. And yeah, licensing isn’t cheap if you’re running a full production setup.

Qlik Sense can be installed both on prem and on cloud, which give the organization using it the ability to have better control of where the data will be stored and accessed from, which is a great benefit when you want to keep your data safe and local.

I often find that uploading large datasets can be a slow process and rarely meets my expectation of a speedy upload.
