Seeing Is Believing: How Visualizing Data Translates to Better Service for the Town of Oakville
Located just outside of Toronto, Canada, the Town of Oakville uses Qlik Sense in its Strategic Business Services group. The Business Solutions and Analytics team makes frequent use of Qlik GeoAnalytics for insights down to the ward level (not possible with PowerBI), leveraging geographic data from Esri and GIS data from Amanda Maps. Qlik dashboards provide insights into building permits and inspections, municipal inquiries and staff metrics, as well as Covid enforcement, call center services and social media monitoring. Learn about their journey from QlikView to Qlik Sense, which has enabled self-discovery and data democratization across the organization. Now, departments are asking questions of the data that they never considered before. Requests for reports have dropped significantly, as users are deriving their own insights from easily created dashboards in Qlik Sense.
