Actionable Analytics

Feature: QlikView 8 makes sophisticated analysis smarter by:

• Creating placeholder fields, which hold data in memory and can be treated just like any other data
• Allowing data to be entered/edited in placeholder fields and distributed across aggregations as necessary

"Our existing QlikView 7 applications provide a wealth of historical data, but QlikView 8 will allow users to do forward-looking analysis and compare different scenarios with a few clicks," said Steve Hunt, Vice President and CIO at SI International, a leading system integrator to many US government agencies. "Our managers will be much better able to understand the future implications of today's decisions."

Benefit: Strategic business intelligence lies not only in analysing the past, but also in better predicting the future – making calculated business decisions based on what-if scenarios, and then capturing results for future comparison. QlikView 8 simplifies specific business cases such as what-if analysis, budgeting and planning, and display of close-to-real-time data, merging interactive analysis and user input/decisions.
