Qlikview Business Intelligence Whats New
QlikView 11 takes Business Discovery to a whole new level by
enabling users to more easily share information with coworkers,
supporting larger enterprise deployments through enhanced
manageability, and delivering an enhanced mobile experience.
With QlikView 11, business users can conduct searches and
interact with dynamic dashboards and analytics from any device.
They can ask and answer questions on their own and in groups and
teams, forging new paths to insight and decision. They don't have
to go back to IT for help with a new query or report each time they
come up with a new question. Instead, IT's role in Business
Discovery is to enable self-service business intelligence (BI) by
assembling and delivering relevant data while ensuring security,
scalability, and performance.
THE FIVE THEMES OF QLIKVIEW 11
QlikView 11 arms business users with multiple sources of insight:
data, people, and place. Make decisions "on location" with mobile
Business Discovery. Nurture and encourage collaborative decision
making with social Business Discovery. And drive data-driven
decision making with improvements in core QlikView. With our
investments in five theme areas, we've taken a major step forward
in QlikView becoming the standard for Business Discovery:
- Social Business Discovery
- Comparative analysis
- Mobile Business Discovery
- Rapid analytic app platform
- Enterprise platform
Social Business Discovery
Social Business Discovery enables business users to collaborate on
discoveries. They can ask and answer their own stream of relevant
business questions in formal or informal groups, in real time as
well as asynchronously. Users collaborate with others to explore
data and forge new paths to discovery and insight.
The new social Business Discovery capabilities in QlikView 11
build on existing collaboration functionality in the QlikView
platform including collaboration objects, shared bookmarks,
Microsoft Office® integration, and QlikView web parts for use with
Microsoft SharePoint®.
PERFORM COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS FOR DEEPER
INSIGHT
Business users can quickly gain new kinds of insight when analyzing
information in QlikView with comparative analysis. Users can now
easily compare and interact with multiple different views or
selection states of the data. This makes it easier to spot trends,
outliers, or differences, and gain new insights into patterns of
use, opportunities and threats, and relative performance.
MOBILE BUSINESS DISCOVERY
With mobile Business Discovery, users can get insights "on
location" and take immediate advantage of being in a particular
place at a particular time. QlikView on Mobile delivers true
Business Discovery and the full power of QlikView to the mobile
device.
SUPPORT FOR MULTIPLE TABLET PLATFORMS IMPROVES USABILITY
AND TIME TO VALUE
Organizations can get better usability and faster time to value
from their QlikView investments by giving business users access to
their QlikView apps via HTML5 browsers on a number of different
tablet devices. This means users get a seamless experience with
their QlikView apps across tablets and desktop and laptop
computers. They get the same functionality and interactivity,
without waiting for developers to create new versions of the app
for each specific mobile platform.
RAPID ANALYTIC APP PLATFORM
With Business Discovery, there are no "end" users. Instead, every
user is the start of something, a node in the creation of
information that is no longer highly centralized and radial. A
rapid analytic app platform helps business users contribute to the
creation of analysis quickly and simply without requiring extensive
ongoing involvement from IT.
QlikView 11 includes new and improved capabilities that meet the
needs of IT professionals and third-party software developers - as
well as the needs of business users who want to create their own
analytic reports.
EXTENSIBILITY
QlikView 11 makes it easier for developers to extend the
platform.
Document Extensions Provide a Way to Execute Custom Code
With the Ajax browser client, business users gain a more
streamlined, effortless experience when working with data from
external analytic systems. They can interact with data returned
from other analytic systems directly within QlikView - without
having to access the external system in a separate, disconnected
mode. Like the extension objects we introduced in QlikView 10,
document extensions are reusable. Once created, they can be reused
in multiple QlikView documents.
Document extensions provide a way to execute custom code and
interact with the QlikView Ajax/JavaScript API (application
programming interface). For example, a developer might want to
track usage patterns of a QlikView document with a document
extension that interfaces with Google Analytic s- without rendering
a Google Analytics chart. Or, the developer may want to run code
not tied to a specific object, or may want to customize the toolbar
or tab row.
