Putting Information Directly into the Hands of Managers
QlikView is the business intelligence tool-of-choice for Satsuma and our clients because it is a fresh kind of business intelligence solution – one that sets a new standard for simplicity, usability and time to value. As a result, it meets the needs of all business users, works easily in any size of deployment, and can be accessed anywhere at any time. The more traditional BI tools have found it hard to match such agility.
In fact, in a recent independent survey, (the largest in the world) BI Survey 8, QlikView ranked number one in the world for ease-of-use and customer loyalty. Not surprising then, that QlikTech, its parent company, is now the world’s fastest growing business intelligence company.
June of this year saw the launch of QlikView Version 9, which sees QlikView raising the bar still higher in performance and scalability, reporting and enterprise management.
In plain language, this means the software supports large data sets, has further enhanced its visualisation and search capabilities, so that users can self-generate the information they need almost immediately, and make fast-work of analysing it too.
Perhaps most notable of all the QlikView 9 features, however, is Amazon’s EC2 web service that makes QlikView faster, easier and even more affordable than ever to implement. This feature enables the software to be deployed as an online service, with minimal infrastructure requirements. It is essentially business intelligence in the cloud!
This means that operational managers across the entire organisation can take advantage of QlikView as their reporting and analysis solution, as enterprise expenses are shifted from capital expenditure to operational expenditure and the requirement for IT infrastructure is minimised. QlikView can then be accessed from anywhere, anytime (mobile, iPhone, web) and managers can stay abreast of their KPIs slicing and dicing in any way they like, without having to burden the IT department with new queries.
QlikView continues to deliver on its promise of delivering information when users want it, how they want it and at a fraction of the cost of other systems.
