Self-Service Business Intelligence and Analytics

Self-Service Business Intelligence and Analytics


Self-service means different things to different people, who want to interact and analyze data to discover new insights on their own and ability to consume it. Match self-service capabilities to your users: information consumers will be interested in reporting with little to no interactivity; more data-savvy users will want drill-down analysis, data querying, and report authoring capabilities; and analysts will want visual data discovery that helps them answer new questions as they arise.

Traditional BIs Vs QlikView :
Traditional BI suites usually remind us of rigid and complex UIs involving extensive usage of SQLs and resemble visual front-end extensions of databases.
Unlike traditional BI’s, QlikView sits on your existing data warehouses and infuses a broad set of self-service BI capabilities.Most traditional BI platforms don't fit into this. Controllers are usually not offered alongside models and views, that's why they are considered as visual extensions of your databases.Traditional report centric BI vendors have been vying to fit in the self service capability into their systems for a long time. Traditional BI architectures typically require mobile reporting layers.In contrast, QlikView offers a unified architecture for delivering cross platform Business discovery capabilities on mobile allowing users to benefit from a consistent experience across devices. Making full use of rich HTML5 features, QlikView offers appealing layouts, compelling visualizations and a bag full of touch interactions on new age mobile devices, thus delivering an user experience on par with native apps.
