September 1, 2008 - The latest business analysis tool from Inside Info, QlikView 8.5, offers a new ‘Set Analysis’ feature that allows comparisons among virtually any sets of associated data.
“QlikView bridges the gap between the many different BI tools in the market. Excel is used for entering data; PDF reports and dashboards for basic – and, ironically; executive – users; OLAP for power users to do analysis; and data mining for the exceptionally well-training expert,” said Stuart Barnard, Managing Director of Inside Info.
“QlikView brings all of these tools in a single solution, eliminating the trade-off between power and simplicity. It delivers the depth of an OLAP cube that is easy to work with as a PDF report.”
The ‘Set Analysis’ feature that compares associated data sets with any other data set – in the same view and 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 that don’t – at any time, regardless of what they currently have selected to analyse.
Set Analysis is a major advancement of QlikView’s patented ‘associative analysis’ approach and is unique to QlikView.
