QlikView

QlikView is a classic data discovery and reporting tool that pioneered associative in-memory analytics. Users load data from multiple sources, then create interactive dashboards revealing hidden relationships. The software’s associative engine means any field or selection updates all visuals instantly, fostering intuitive exploration. QlikView’s scripting can handle complex ETL tasks, while a robust library of charts and pivot tables helps present findings. Although Qlik has newer products like Qlik Sense, QlikView remains popular for self-service BI and flexible data modeling in mid-to-large deployments.
