Connect All the Things: Qlik Talend Cloud's Latest Connector Releases - and a Mi...

Show MoreBack in 1985, Tears for Fears sang "Everybody Wants to Rule the World." They weren't thinking about data integration pipelines - but they might as well have been. Because if you're a data engineer or an analytics leader in 2026, it’s not world domination you are after; it's domination of your data world: you want all your data, wherever it lives, moving wherever it needs to go.
This round of latest connector releases takes us a meaningful step closer to that.
What's New
We’ve been hard at work natively integrating Stitch's full SaaS connector catalogue into Qlik Talend Cloud, giving you access to 100+ pre-built connectors for popular sources including Salesforce, Jira, Marketo, Zendesk, and more.
Since May, we have released twelve more Stitch-powered connectors in Qlik Talend Cloud, some new and some improved, covering a broad sweep of the modern SaaS stack. Whether your data lives in a DevOps pipeline, an e-commerce platform, a marketing automation tool, or a customer engagement suite, there's something here for you.
The additional Stitch-powered connectors are:
- Circle CI - continuous integration and delivery pipelines
- NetSuite - ERP and financial management
- SendGrid - email delivery and engagement
- Shopify - e-commerce platform
- Contentful - headless CMS
- Delighted - customer experience and NPS
- Iterable - cross-channel marketing
- Branch - mobile attribution and linking
- Segment - customer data platform
- Microsoft Graph - Microsoft 365 data and services
- Microsoft Teams - collaboration and communications
- Sendwithus - transactional email
That's a wide net. From pulling CI/CD telemetry out of Circle CI to surfacing customer sentiment from Delighted, to unifying your Microsoft 365 data through MS Graph - the range reflects just how distributed the modern data landscape has become. Remember the saying “there’s an app for that”. Well, think of Qlik Talend Cloud when you want to move data from 'that app'.
The Milestone That Actually Matters
Here's where it gets interesting - and I'd argue this is the more important story with this update.
July 1st is an important milestone in Qlik Talend Cloud. This update is not just about extending the connector list. It also completes something we’ve been working on for a while. Because now All of the connectors, including every previous Stitch-originated SaaS connector that is available in Qlik Talend Cloud today and in the future, will support the full range of data movement use cases: Replication, Pipelines, and Qlik Open Lakehouse.
Previously, Stitch-based connectors were limited to the Replication use case. That was fine as far as it went, as that was exactly the use case Stitch was built for - but it left a gap in today's modern world. If you wanted to route data into a pipeline or land it directly into an open lakehouse architecture with iceberg tables, these connectors weren't available for the job.
That gap is now bridged.
What does that mean in practice? It means that whatever architectural path you're on - whether you're running straightforward replication into a warehouse, building out event-driven pipelines, or building a modern data architecture on open formats like Iceberg and open standards with Qlik Open Lakehouse - your Stitch-powered connectors are ready to travel the whole journey with you. No asterisks. No "supported for this use case only."
Why Stitch Connectors in Qlik Talend Cloud?
A quick word on the "under the hood" picture, for anyone coming to this fresh.
Stitch is a SaaS-native data ingestion technology from Qlik’s Talend acquisition, purpose-built for cloud-based source connectivity. The connectors delivered through this program are taking the best of Stitch technology and making it better in Qlik Talend Cloud, designed to connect to the APIs of modern SaaS applications - the kind of tools that power marketing, sales, operations, development, and finance teams - and bring that data into your data movement infrastructure securely, reliably and at scale.
The connectors are delivered continuously in the cloud, so you don't have to wait for a software release cycle to access new sources. When a new connector ships, it's available in your source and targets list when building your projects. These twelve are the latest in a steady cadence that's been building the breadth of Qlik's SaaS connectivity for some time now.
What's Next
The cadence continues. For a complete list of connectors, check out the Connector Factory on Qlik.com and our documentation in Qlik Help. These sites will be continuously updated as new connectors are released.
If you're looking for a specific connector that isn't listed on the Qlik Connector Factory, then you can request it by clicking the request button on the bottom of that page.
The best place to track what's coming - and to register your ideas to help shape Qlik - is the Qlik Community Ideation Forum.
If you're ready to start moving data from any of these latest new connectors, the Qlik Talend Cloud documentation has everything you need to get set up.

This Qlik Sense application helps internal recruiters efficiently review and identify qualified job applicants. It analyzes resume content and displays a word cloud of key skills, qualifications, and terms, allowing recruiters to quickly spot candidates with relevant experience. When a candidate is selected, their resume is displayed directly within the application for detailed review. Used by the recruiting team, the app reduces manual screening time, improves candidate discovery, and enables faster, more informed hiring decisions.
Discoveries
Best-fit candidates faster: Recruiters can quickly identify applicants whose resumes include the most relevant keywords for a specific role. Skill gaps in the applicant pool: The app may reveal when certain required skills or qualifications are missing or uncommon across candidates. Reduced manual screening effort: By narrowing candidate review through keyword patterns, the app helps recruiters spend more time evaluating strong matches instead of scanning every resume manually.
Impact
The application significantly reduces the time recruiters spend manually reviewing resumes by quickly highlighting candidates with relevant skills and experience. It improves the quality and consistency of candidate screening, helps uncover qualified applicants who might otherwise be overlooked, and enables faster hiring decisions. By providing immediate visibility into resume content and key qualifications, the app increases recruiting efficiency and supports better talent acquisition outcomes.
Audience

Data and advanced analytics
The app has reduced the time recruiters spend screening resumes by quickly identifying candidates with the most relevant skills and experience. This has enabled faster, more consistent candidate evaluations and helped uncover qualified applicants who may have been overlooked during manual reviews.

Closing the Data and AI Skills Gap: How Academia and Industry Can Prepare Tomorr...

Show MoreUniversities play a critical role in developing these capabilities, but they should not have to do it alone. Meaningful collaboration between academia and industry can help educators connect curricula with workplace needs while giving students practical experience before they begin their careers.
This is the purpose of the Qlik Academic Program.
The program provides qualified university educators and students with free access to Qlik technology and learning resources. Members can develop experience with Qlik Cloud Analytics, Qlik Predict, Qlik Answers and Qlik Talend Cloud, exploring the complete data journey—from integrating and preparing trusted data to visualization, predictive analytics and AI-powered answers. They can also access self-paced learning pathways, ready-to-use teaching materials and Qlik product qualifications that help them demonstrate their knowledge.
Access, however, is only the starting point. The greatest impact happens when these resources become part of meaningful, hands-on learning.
Across EMEA, we have seen the results of this approach. At the University of Worcester, a two-day bootcamp gave students the opportunity to build practical analytics skills with support from Qlik experts. Every participating student passed the Qlik Business Analyst Qualification. At AGH University of Science and Technology in Poland, an advanced workshop introduced master’s students to predictive analytics, AI and practical business applications. Further collaborations across Germany, Portugal, Spain and other markets are helping educators bring current industry technology and real-world problem-solving into their classrooms.
Our Educator Ambassador community strengthens this work further. These educators champion data literacy within their institutions, exchange effective teaching practices and help us understand how academic needs are evolving. Their experience ensures that the program remains grounded not only in technology, but also in the realities of teaching and learning.
None of this happens through software alone. Educators contribute subject expertise and an understanding of their students. Qlik colleagues and volunteers share technical knowledge and industry experience. Students contribute curiosity, creativity and new perspectives. Together, they create learning environments in which data becomes something students actively explore rather than simply study.
For Qlik, this makes the Academic Program much more than a free technology initiative. It is a long-term investment in the global data and AI ecosystem. Students who graduate with practical experience, stronger data literacy and Qlik qualifications enter the workforce better prepared to create value with data. They may become future analysts, consultants, customers, partners, educators or innovators—and their capabilities will benefit the organizations and communities they join.
Preparing tomorrow’s workforce is a shared responsibility. By connecting accessible technology, relevant learning resources, committed educators and industry expertise, we can help students move confidently from classroom knowledge to career-ready capability.
The Qlik Academic Program is proud to support that journey.

Show MoreQlik constantly refines its Analytics, over time replacing old charts with new, modernized alternatives. These deprecations are announced well in advance and come with instructions on how to best replace these old charts, whether that is to use a new one, several new ones, or make use of new settings.
This blog post covers the deprecation of charts in May 2027 and offers you guidance on how to replace them.
What charts are being deprecated and when?
The following seven visualization bundle charts are up for deprecation in May 2027. Most have already been removed from the asset panel and are no longer a part of recent applications.
- The Bar and Area chart
- The old Bullet chart
- The old Heatmap chart
- The Button for navigation
- The Share button
- The Show/Hide container
- The old Tabbed container
- The Multi KPI
What do I use instead?
Since these are old charts, most are no longer in use. If you happen to still have a very old application and need to replace deprecated charts, see Visualization bundle > Deprecated charts for more information on what to use instead.
How do I find out if my apps are using the deprecated charts?
Qlik recommends reviewing your apps for old charts. Depending on your platform (Qlik Cloud or Client-managed), there are different methods you can deploy.
Qlik Cloud
Qlik Cloud administrators should use the Qlik Cloud Monitoring Apps to track the usage. The App Analyzer has a sheet dedicated to where deprecated charts are being used on a tenant in Qlik Cloud. The App Analyzer is based on usage events rather than scanning every app. Use the App Analyzer to find which apps and sheets have charts that need to be updated to newer and more modern alternatives. The easiest way to install and update the Qlik Cloud Monitoring Apps is to use the automation template. If you already have the App Analyzer, just remove the automation and install a new one to get the latest version of the App Analyzer.
Client-managed
For client-managed installations, use the Content Monitor app, included in every Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows installation beginning with the May 2026 release.
The Content Monitor has a sheet for tracking deprecated charts. At reload, the Content Monitor app scans every app in the installation to list all applications and sheets that are using charts that are being deprecated. It also lists the installed extensions and their deprecation status.
If you want to track usage in prior versions, download the Qlik Sense Content Monitor from the Qlik download page. It comes bundled with the required Object Scanner.

Show MoreEvery year, thousands of students ask the same question: is data analytics still a good career bet? The 2026 numbers say yes. In Data Analyst Job Outlook 2026, 365 Data Science analyzed over 1,000 real job postings to map what employers actually want from data analysts today. The report adds a wider signal, citing a US Bureau of Labor Statistics projection of 23% job growth by 2032.
The research highlights four trends shaping the data analyst career in 2026:
- Specialists are winning. Nearly 70% of job postings focus on a core set of skills such as SQL, statistics, and visualization rather than long lists of requirements. The takeaway from the research: master the core analytics toolkit deeply before expanding into adjacent areas.
- Data visualization is the most in-demand skill. It appears in more postings than any other analysis skill, and dashboards remain the bridge between raw data and business decisions. Employers want analysts who can turn complex datasets into stories stakeholders understand.
- AI is transforming the role, not replacing it. Machine learning mentions in job postings doubled year over year, and the report cites that 70% of analysts say AI automation makes their work more effective. The analysts who thrive are the ones who understand how AI-driven insights are produced and how to question them.
- Communication is a technical skill now. Stakeholder communication appears in nearly 60% of postings, ahead of most hard skills. Analysis that no one understands is analysis that changes nothing.
Across all four, one theme repeats: the market rewards professionals who combine hands-on analytics skills with the ability to explain, question, and communicate data. That is data literacy, and it's exactly what the Qlik Academic Program helps universities build.
The program gives students free access to the full Qlik stack, from data integration and Qlik Cloud Analytics to Qlik Answers and agents, alongside courses, qualifications, and certifications. Students don't just read about visualization and AI-assisted analytics; they build dashboards, integrate real data, and learn how AI-driven decisions are made. Those are precisely the skills leading the 2026 hiring data.
Professors are supported too, with training and ready-to-use teaching resources that make it easier to bring analytics into the classroom, so curricula keep pace with a job market that is evolving faster than any syllabus revision cycle.
The report's conclusion is encouraging: the field isn't oversaturated for those with the right combination of skills. For students, the best time to start building that combination is before graduation, with real tools, real data, and credentials employers recognize.
By giving students, professors, and universities free access to analytics software, learning content, and certifications, the Qlik Academic Program helps learners graduate ready for a career field that the data shows is still growing.

This is an advance notice that, to enhance both your security and experience, Java 21 will be required to launch Talend Studio starting with the 2026-06 release.
This change only concerns the Talend Studio desktop application. It has no impact on the Jobs and Services you build with it, which will continue being compliant with Java 17 runtime environments (and Java 8 for Big Data Jobs).
You have multiple options to make a smooth transition:
- The Talend Studio embedded upgrade mechanism (Feature Manager) will offer handling the JDK version upgrade
- Should you prefer, a new installer of Talend Studio 2026-06 with JDK 21 embedded will also be provided
- You will also be free to manually configure Talend Studio to start with JDK 21, provided you are on Talend Studio 2025-09 or higher

Shift Left: What DevOps can teach us about catching bad data

Show MoreThere’s a moment every data team knows. An executive questions a number in a dashboard. An AI model returns a recommendation that doesn’t make sense. A downstream report shows a discrepancy no one can explain. The root cause turns out to be a data quality issue that has been sitting in the pipeline for weeks.
The frustrating part is that the issue rarely originated where it was found. It perhaps started upstream, from an incorrect transformation, a schema change that wasn’t handled, or a source system that began emitting invalid values two sprints ago. Every unidentified data issue compounds downstream, driving rework, slowing decisions, and eroding trust in analytics and AI. Gartner research estimates that the cost of poor data quality averages $12.9 million per organization annually.
By the time an AI app or a business user surfaces the problem, it has aged, compounded, and become harder to trace. There is a better containment model, and software engineering figured it out years ago.
Borrowing from DevOps: shift quality and governance left
In software development, “shifting left” means moving quality and governance checks earlier in the lifecycle. Barry Boehm’s research quantified why it matters for code development. A defect caught during development costs the least to fix, a defect found during testing costs considerably more, and a defect that reaches production costs the most by far. The multiplier compounds at every stage you move downstream, because context degrades, blast radius widens, and the fix becomes harder to isolate. Software engineering recognized the problem years ago, internalized it and reorganized the whole discipline around it. This gave rise to DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) framework for continuously improving software delivery.
Furthermore, the DORA concept can be applied to other domains beyond just software engineering. Indeed, we can apply it to data engineering as well, specifically data quality. Thinking through the lens of DORA metrics, KPIs such as deployment frequency, lead time for changes, change failure rate, and mean time to recovery can be mapped to equivalents within data quality engineering.
DORA Metric
Software Engineering
Data Quality Equivalent
Deployment Frequency
How often code is deployed
How often quality rules and controls are deployed into live pipelines
Lead Time for Changes
Time from commit to production
Time from identifying a DQ requirement to enforcing the rule in production
Change Failure Rate
% of deployments causing incidents
% of pipeline or schema changes that introduce data defects
Mean Time to Recovery
Time to restore service
Time to detect, remediate, and validate a data quality issue
Just like code, data follows the same curve. A quality issue caught at ingestion costs a fraction of what it costs when it surfaces in a dashboard, a regulatory report, or an AI model.
What shifting quality left means for data engineers
Shifting quality left has a specific meaning for data engineers. Validation logic runs at the point where data is created and transformed, not the point where it is consumed. When a new source is onboarded, completeness and schema checks run immediately. When a transformation is written, it carries assertions about what the output should look like. When a pipeline runs, anomaly detection fires in real time, not three weeks later when someone notices a metric looks off. This repositions the data engineer from pipeline builder to quality-accountable producer.
The data engineering role itself is changing in the process. Hand-crafting rule expressions and wiring checks into every job used to fill the day. Qlik’s Agentic Data Engineering capabilities, now generally available in Qlik Talend Cloud changes what that work looks like. With the Data Quality Agent, an engineer describes what good data looks like in plain language; the agent finds the target dataset, checks existing fields and rules to avoid redundancy, generates the rule expressions, and lets the engineer refine them before anything is written. The engineer directs and reviews; the agent does the mechanical work. Building pipelines and fixing data quality issues becomes a higher-leverage discipline allowing the quality coverage to widen well beyond the specialists who used to own it.
Observability is the key to practicality
Shifting quality left only works if you can see what is happening across your pipelines. This is where data observability comes in, and it is worth being precise because it is often conflated with monitoring.
Monitoring tells you that something failed. Observability tells you why, when it started, and where it originated. A monitoring check might flag that a table has unexpected nulls. An observability signal tells you that null values in a specific column rose 40% over the last two hours, that the spike correlates with a transformation updated yesterday, and that this pattern has appeared twice before in the past month. That is a signal you can act on.
Effective observability means instrumenting pipelines continuously for freshness (is data arriving when it should?), completeness (are expected volumes showing up?), schema consistency (are structure changes propagating correctly?), distribution drift (are values behaving as they historically have?), and rule conformance (are business-defined constraints holding?). These run as ongoing signals that are continuously woven into the operational fabric.
The Qlik Trust Score for AI condenses the trustworthiness of a dataset or data product into a single, intuitive measure. Because Trust Score is tracked over time, an engineer can compare it before and after the Data Quality Agent acts — seeing exactly which signals moved the score and by how much. The evolution of Trust Score becomes the feedback loop: every new rule, every remediation, and every schema change shows up as a measurable shift, so the impact of each intervention is visible rather than inferred. When you combine that visibility with earlier enforcement, you get a compounding effect. Rules embedded in pipelines generate signals upstream. These signals surface issues while they are still close to the source. Resolution happens faster because the context is fresh. Over time, you build a map of where your data is fragile and where it is reliable, and you address quality proactively rather than reactively.
Ownership shifts as quality and governance become an engineering discipline
The technical model only works if the organizational model supports it. Traditional data quality programs concentrate ownership in a small governance team operating at a remove from the engineering work. That team defines policy. Engineers implement pipelines. Governance audits outputs. The feedback loop is long, and by the time an issue surfaces through that channel, it has already caused downstream harm.
The old stereotype was governance as the data police: no, you can’t use that field, please attend next month’s council. Even well-run enablement teams operated from the outside, persuading and reminding everyone else to comply. That does not scale. Quality and governance that survives AI shows up where the work happens, in pull requests, in CI/CD, and in the pipelines themselves.
A left-shifted model distributes accountability differently. Data engineers own quality at the point of production. Domain teams are responsible for the data they generate. Business stewards contribute the contextual judgment automated systems cannot provide, because they know what “correct” means for their domain and can tell a real problem from expected variance.
This is a change in how quality work is structured and who participates, not a reorganization. Automated checks handle the mechanical layer. Human judgment handles the interpretation layer. Two more of the new agents in Qlik Talend Cloud make that split workable. Data products are how the gap between data producers and data consumers finally closes — producers publish a governed, contract-bound asset; consumers get something discoverable, documented, and safe to trust. The Data Product Agent manages the full lifecycle of a data product through conversation, with pre-activation validation, dependency awareness, and explicit confirmation before anything is created, deactivated, or deleted. Producers evolve the product without breaking downstream consumers, and governance is enforced at every step without adding process overhead, yet allowing human judgment to be in the loop at each decision point. The Catalog and Business Glossary Agent then makes those products understandable in business terms. It derives glossary terms from business domain context, data product structure, field metadata, and app measures and dimensions, and links each term to the assets it describes. Documentation stays in sync with the data instead of rotting the moment someone renames a column, and other agents inherit correct, governed metadata to reason over.
Where to start
The Data Quality, Catalog and Business Glossary, and Data Product Agents, along with Declarative Pipelines, are all generally available today in Qlik Talend Cloud. Clive Bearman walks through each one, with demos, in the full launch announcement: From Intent to Trusted Data: Agentic Data Engineering is Now Generally Available.

Model vs. Mastery, Episode 2: When the Beautiful Game Meets AI

Joining host Adam for this tournament check-in are two guests who bring very different — and very complementary — perspectives to the table:
- Steve Palmer, a football industry veteran with over 30 years of experience, including his Data Solutions Engineering work with the Premier League
- Nick Magnuson, Qlik's Head of AI, who brings the data science lens to everything football throws at us
JOIN THE CONVERSAION with the panel, and others, on our community forum
Together, they make for a fascinating collision of human intuition and machine intelligence.
So… How's the Model Holding Up?
Spoiler alert: football is doing what football does best — keeping everyone on their toes.
The early group stage threw up some genuine surprises, including a record-breaking number of red cards in a single game that no model could have seen coming. As Steve puts it, those early outlier results tested the predictions, but the group stage format — with three games per team — gives the model room to self-correct and normalize over time.
Nick adds important context around this year's expanded 48-team format. With two-thirds of teams now qualifying for the knockout stage (up from half in previous tournaments), team strategies are shifting in ways that add yet another layer of complexity for any prediction model to navigate.
The Real Challenge: The Knockout Stage
Both Steve and Nick agree — the real test for AI prediction is still to come. In the group stage, there's room for recovery. In the knockout rounds, it's winner takes all. One upset, one red card, one moment of magic from an unexpected player, and the model is back to square one.
That's what makes this experiment so compelling. It's not just about whether the AI gets it right — it's about understanding where and why it gets it wrong, and what that tells us about the limits of data-driven forecasting in a sport defined by human unpredictability.
The Wisdom of the Crowd
One of the highlights of the episode is a peek behind the curtain at Qlik's Choose Your Champion app, where over 330 people have submitted their own World Cup brackets. The crowd's favorites? Spain, France, and Brazil — a fairly conventional set of picks that will be fascinating to measure against the model as the tournament progresses.
There's also some fun analysis around national bias — how likely are fans to pick their own country to win? (England fans, it turns out, are more realistic than you might expect. The French, less so.)
Why This Matters Beyond Football
At its heart, Model vs. Mastery is about something bigger than the World Cup. It's about the relationship between AI and human expertise — when to trust the data, when to trust your gut, and how the two can work together to make smarter decisions.
Whether you're a football fan, a data professional, or just someone curious about how AI performs under pressure, this episode has something for you.
Don't Miss Out — Update Your Bracket!
If you haven't joined the Choose Your Champion competition yet, it's not too late. Head to the app, plot your path to the final, and see how your predictions stack up against both the AI model and the wisdom of the crowd. A team jersey from Adidas is up for grabs for our top prediction champion — not a bad prize for getting your football picks right.
And if you've already submitted your bracket, now is the time to revisit your knockout stage picks and make sure you're backing teams that have actually made it through.
Episode 2 of Model vs. Mastery is available now. Catch up on Episode 1 if you haven't already, and stay tuned for our final episode where we'll find out once and for all — did the model win, or did human mastery prevail?
The beautiful game. The power of data. Let's see who comes out on top.

Introducing Fast Mode: A New Gear for Qlik Answers

Show MoreQlik Answers was built to do real analytical work: investigate root causes, reason across dimensions and time, and explain not just what happened but why. That depth is what our customers value most, and it isn't going anywhere.
But not every question needs an analyst. Sometimes you only need a number. What was the revenue last month? Top 10 products by margin? Open orders in EMEA right now? These are lookups, not investigations, and they deserve their own gear.
On the 7th of June 2026, Qlik added one: Fast Mode is now live in Qlik Answers, providing one assistant with the effort matched to the question. To read more about the release, see What's new in Qlik Cloud.
Fast Mode gives you near-instant answers to simple questions on your structured data, so quick checks feel as natural as glancing at a KPI. Thinking Mode remains your deep analyst for everything else, with all the reasoning power you rely on today.
Together, they work the way a great analyst does. Ask what sales were last month, and you get the number immediately. Ask why sales dropped in the North region, and the assistant rolls up its sleeves and does the work properly. Same assistant, same governed data, two gears.
Fast, and still your numbers
Plenty of AI tools can answer quickly. The question is whether you can trust what comes back.
Fast Mode is grounded in your app's governed semantics from the first query: master measures, master dimensions, your calendar logic, and your section access. When Fast Mode says "sales," it means sales exactly as your organization defines them, rather than AI math or a plausible-looking guess. You will get the same governed definitions your dashboards run on, at conversational speed.
And when a question deserves more than a fast answer, Fast Mode won't pretend otherwise. It tells you the question calls for deeper analysis and offers a one-click "Think harder" that hands the same question, full context intact, to Thinking Mode.
No need for rephrasing or starting over.
What each mode covers today
Fast Mode is currently available for structured data: questions answered from your apps, master measures, and master dimensions.
The rest of what makes Qlik Answers powerful stays with Thinking Mode. Questions over unstructured content like documents and knowledge bases, answers that blend structured and unstructured sources, and requests that trigger automations all need real reasoning, and Thinking Mode is built for exactly that.
That's a deliberate split: fast lookups where speed matters, full reasoning where the work demands it.
We know where the appetite goes from here, and we're watching how you use both modes closely. For now, if your question touches documents or kicks off an automation, Thinking Mode has you covered.
When to use which mode
A simple rule: if a colleague could answer from memory using your apps, use Fast Mode. If they'd need to open the app, read the documents, or take action, that's a job for Thinking Mode.
Fast Mode: "What was revenue last quarter?" "Top 5 regions by margin." "Open orders in EMEA right now?"
Thinking Mode: "Why did margin compress in Q2?" "What does our returns policy say, and how many orders does it affect?" "Flag these accounts and notify the owners."
Pick wrong? One click fixes it.
Try it today! Fast Mode is available now in Qlik Answers. Ask the question on your mind and see how fast a trusted answer can be. Then ask a hard one, hit "Think harder," and watch the assistant do what it does best.
