Anybody here have experience with Qlik Sense?

[brojack420]

Hi guys! Long time lurker and I do post now and again I think. My company has just picked up Qlik Sense as a way to remove the need for us to email our reports to our clients. Instead, they will be able to access their reports on Qlik and we will not need to produce the reports in Excel as the app will do this for us. It is the first week in and I am really really struggling with using Qlik. Many of the questions I have googled I am struggling to find an answer to as there doesn't seem to be many people using it. I have had a look for any sort of fully comprehensive course on youtube but have failed to find one. Would any of you guys be able to recommend any tutorial courses that are available for free?? Thanks for the help in advance.

Hi @brojack420 

You have come to the right place already. The community boards have loads of posts from people who have been there already. The search in the site is not always the best, but using google and searching site:community.qlik.com whatever tends to work well.

The site @BrunPierre has mentioned is Qlik's official track for training, but there are also plenty of blogs and YouTube channels which you can find help on. There is a blog aggregator at https://askqv.com/ which lists all of the best Qlik blogs.

Something that may help you get off the mark quickly is the Instant Sense Application that I have created, and you can download for free from here: https://www.quickintelligence.co.uk/instant-qlik-sense-app/

It's a template app where you can load your own data plus a spreadsheet of metadata and have a fully featured application up and running in a relatively short amount of time. If you want to see an example of the application, loaded with some (dummy) healthcare data you can do so here:

If you need a hand getting it up and running in your own environment with your own data I will be happy to do that on this thread.
