How does Tableau compare to Qlik in terms of performance?
The question is about Tableau
Tableau and Qlik vary in performance. Their ways of processing data differ, as well as user needs. Tableau is the best tool for visually rich, interactive web-based dashboards. Easy to use, it can be deployed rather fast. Its strong points are related to live data connections and very large datasets, mainly for rendering visualization. Qlik, leveraging an associative data engine, offers faster in-memory data processing to enable users to dynamically and efficiently explore the relationships within data among highly complex data sets. Qlik would take the clear win in terms of high-volume exploration and ad hoc analysis. Tableau is a clear winner based on an intuitive interface and polished visualizations. However, where fast and complex data manipulation and on-the-fly analysis are required, Qlik is the way to go.
