Besides, in it the basic corporate functions, security protections of data and also data management and applications will be implemented. All products of the Qlik Sense family make indexation of data thanks to what users can start a research and visualization of the available information at once.


Qlik Sense is the first solution which provides possibilities of the independent business analysis according to model of development and distribution on server side. While the majority of products require separate licenses of the developer and provide a traditional development approach and publications of applications, Qlik Sense provides to each user a full range of tools for creation, setup or expansion of visual representations from any device at any time.

Lack of systems for the independent business analysis always was the fact that they or provided ample opportunities of the analysis, being at the same time inconvenient in use, or represented products, very attractive to the user, with limited analytical functionality, noted in the company. Releasing Qlik Sense, developers wanted to change this situation. Therefore created Qlik Sense based on the second generation of the patented associative mechanism of indexing of data of the company, but supplied this system with the modern full-function module of visualization, powerful and intuitive.

Users of Qlik Sense can create applications using drag and drop of objects that provides the timely analysis by means of the interactive reports and dashboards playing an important role in decision making and operating activities. Users have an opportunity to freely follow the intuition, without being limited to the predetermined analysis algorithms or need to formulate questions in advance. The associative mechanism of indexing of data Qlik allows to reveal easily interrelations between measurements of data and to take knowledge which would remain hidden in case of use of traditional hierarchical data models on the basis of requests. It provides to users freedom of a research of data at any analysis stage.

By means of intellectual search users can input of several words or digits to begin the analysis of all data set. When the user enters search query, function of intellectual search makes the broad picture, disclosing interrelations between data and detecting the necessary information where other systems would not allow to find it. Besides, intuitive means of intellectual visualization allow to reveal all interrelations between measurements of data and to take data which do not manage to be detected using traditional data models. These hints help users to investigate patterns thanks to dynamic updating and selection of new information and associations.

Qlik Sense puts interaction of users and joint work on the first place. The working groups and teams of experts can interact with each other, exchanging the general analysis results from any point, at any time and from any devices. The touch interface and adaptive design of a system allow to adapt automatically visual representations for any devices thanks to what they always look in the best way.

The functionality of creation of narrative effect allows many users from any devices at any moment to provide the data in a presentation format. At the same time users can add comments and explanations and also to pass directly from the presentation to data of Qlik Sense for obtaining answers to questions directly therein. It helps to communicate more actively and simplifies joint survey of data.

Differences of QlikView and Qlik Sense

First of all, it should be noted, as QlikView and Qlik Sense are analytical tools with uniform logic and on a single platform. Key difference in positioning: QlikView – is provided to the market as the corporate platform, and Qlik Sense – the tool of a personal research of data by the end user.

These products have the different user interface, but a similar analysis algorithm, i.e. scripts and formulas in Qlik Sense work in the same way as in QlikView. Scripts from QlikView can be transferred to Qlik Sense in general with the help of copy-paste, and in release of QlikView 12 both systems will have a uniform engine. Both systems are compatible to diverse data sources and allow to do as the generalized analyses, and to develop selection up to specific problem transactions and at once to draw conclusions on the current situation in the company. If to generalize purpose of two products, then, QlikView is created for advanced analytical tasks. At the same time, the end user has complete freedom to investigate data. In QlikView, of course, it is possible to create analytical reports, but QlikSense considerably simplifies this task and allows to create own elements of visualization quicker and more variably. In terms of depth of analytics, any distinctions is not present, and here with simplicity of creation of analytical applications – Qlik Sense this assistant to the researcher of data. The Main Elements tab contains all types in Qlik Sense visualization which are easily drawn on a working field of the sheet, thereby, you already add new visualization i.e. many options are polled to drag-and-drop. Selections in Qlik Sense work with the Global Selectors function, i.e. a system to us colors and selects fields for the application.

In QlikView on dot charts the square was available to selection only a selection element, and in Qlik Sense there is an excellent solution – the Lasso that customizes and simplifies selections of the data given in the course of the research. Qlik Sense can load data not only by means of a script as into QlikView, but also file drag-and-drop-ohm in section of fast loading – it is very convenient for files of Excel. Connections of web files allows to load data from the Internet – simply, quickly and in the spirit of the times. Visualization and deshborda in Qlik Sense became even more evident and more beautiful. Applications it is valid and are convenient and stylish looked. It is possible to change colors of visual learners and to watch the preview of the developed panels. What is still pleasant – so it is fast geoanalytics with connection to the module OpenStreetMap

If there is a need for data exchange with colleagues, it is possible to publish Dashboard on the Qlik Sense server or in Qlik Cloud cloud (it is available also to the free version of Qlik Sense on the volume of 1 GB, at the maximum volume of the application in a cloud – 25 MB). To us as experts in BI, are very much imposed by Qlik Sense as convenient idle time and the inexpensive tool for the business user. It easily solves problems of creation of attractive visualization on the fly by means of the built-in data libraries and creation of stories of data, with the drag-and drop function and abundance of visual learners.

Data Storytelling

In Qlik Sense the concept Data Storytelling appeared. This option those who prepare the business presentations will estimate it and want to state convincingly the position on results of the done analytical work. Thanks to functionality of Data Storytelling, the user receives: the interactive presentation of visualization (all data and representations remain clickable). At the same time any history of data can be supplemented with additional pictures for improvement of perception of data.
