Medium to large enterprises are now supported in improved decision-making thanks to the latest business analysis tool from Inside Info, local provider of the world's fastest growing business intelligence software tool* QlikView 8.5.
Aimed at providing everyone within an organisation access to information that supports their everyday function, from Chief Financial Officer to Inventory Manager to Marketing Executive simply by using a web browser interface, new evolutionary features in this release now make QlikView 8.5 even smarter. QlikView 8.5 was tested by more than 400 users around the world prior to release.
The highlight of QlikView 8.5is a groundbreaking "Set Analysis" feature that allows comparisons among virtually any sets of associated data - providing users with more powerful analysis than ever before.
"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-trained 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 as easy to work with as a PDF report."
QlikView works the way your mind works to connect related data from many sources, using patented in-memory association technology for visual analysis, dashboards and reporting. Information can then be explored intuitively and visually - with drill down detail in a few clicks - delivering users accurate answers and better insights.
Key new features within QlikView 8.5:
-
The highlight of QlikView 8.5 is a groundbreaking '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 who 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.
-
Enhancements for enterprise deployment and integration, such as open APIs for resource utilisation 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 (PowerPoint, Word and Excel), improve collaboration, while additional visualisations make QlikView more useful and fun.
-
Simplified licensing eliminates product distinction between 32- and 64-bit versions, giving users the choice to use the full power of 64-bit processing.
"In the first half of this year, we've already delivered three times the revenue compared with the same period in 2007," said Stuart Barnard, Managing Director at Inside Info. "Customer response supports our belief that QlikView offers what the market has been waiting for, business analysis that is simplified, can be used by anyone and delivers value in weeks, not months or years. We look forward to the success 8.5 will bring our customers."
