QlikTech Releases Groundbreaking BI Set Analysis Capability
QlikTech, a business intelligence (BI) software vendor, announces the general availability of version 8.5 of QlikView, its award-winning business analysis solution. The highlight of QlikView 8.5 is a "Set Analysis" feature that allows comparisons among virtually any sets of associated data and provides users with more powerful analysis than ever before.
QlikView works the way your mind works to connect related data from many sources, using patented, next-generation association technology. Information can then be explored intuitively and visually, with drill-down detail in a few clicks, delivering users accurate answers and better insights.
Key Facts
Revolutionary "Set Analysis" features compare associated data sets with any other data set in the same view and on the fly. Enhancements for enterprise integration, such as open APIs for resource utilization, and mass client deployment using AJAX and Java make it even easier for the largest companies to deploy and manage QlikView. User enhancements, such as embedding QlikView directly in everyday business applications, improve collaboration, while additional visualizations make QlikView more useful and fun. Simplified licensing eliminates product distinction between 32- and 64-bit versions.
New Features
QlikView 8.5 is designed around four themes to make business intelligence even smarter. Most of the enhancements are evolutionary improvements in QlikTech's mission to simplify analysis for everyone.
1. End-user Experience innovations focus on making analysis useful and beautiful. Groundbreaking Set Analysis features enable users to compare two or more selected states at once, "lock" or "choose" selected states for comparison, view multiple selection states, and extend the power of QlikView bookmarks — in the same view and all on the fly. For example, users can compare this year's sales to last or the product mix of sales people who exceed quota with those who don't — at any time, regardless of the current selection state. Set Analysis is a major advancement of QlikView's patented "associative analysis" approach.
In addition to several new visualization and charting features, end users can "drag'n'drop" QlikView objects live inside PowerPoint, Word and Excel. This integration makes QlikView even more accessible for presentation and collaboration.
2. Enterprise Deployment and Integration features simplify QlikView deployment and integration in organizations with complex existing infrastructures. Exposing management APIs and infrastructure to non-QlikView management software simplifies management tasks and integration with third party software, including J2EE server applications.
3. Mass Deployment Clients features ensure simple, secure deployment of large numbers of QlikViews to large numbers of users, putting personalized analysis into the hands of the right user at the right time. AJAX and Java clients provide desktop-level interactivity and capabilities and allow customers to deploy QlikView to large numbers of users in seconds.
4. Simplified Licensing makes it even easier to do business with QlikTech. The product distinction between 32- and 64-bit QlikView and QlikView server has been removed. All QlikView users now have the choice to use the full power of 64-bit QlikView.
QlikView 8.5 has been beta-tested by more than 400 people in organizations ranging from a Fortune 40 pharmaceutical company, to the UK's National Health Service, to dozens of IT solutions providers.
