Qlik is ever evolving. In my last blog entry, I went over how users can update their tenants to the new UI and give a brand-new look to their interface. Today we’re going to go over the changes that have been brought to Qlik’s UI, and how users can take advantage of these changes.
One of the first changes that users will see when logging onto their new tenant is a change in menu location and appearance. Instead of being located on the right-hand side of the screen, users can now access this menu through the top left, which then reveals a collection of activity centers they can visit. From this menu, users can quickly jump into the different sides of Qlik Sense.
Insights will bring users to what was once the Qlik Cloud Analytics hubs, providing options for app and analytic content. Analytics allows customers to explore visualizations and create apps with their data. Data Integration will allow users to establish and view connections, create data projects and set up automations. Through Administration users have access to the different settings and permissions that govern their tenant.
An extremely helpful change to the UI is based around this waffle menu and the administration section of Qlik Cloud. No longer do users have to venture into series of different menus, one click exposes all the sections allowing users to quickly remedy their administrative need.
You’ll notice that this menu also extends into the sections themselves. Below we have a screenshot inside of an app in the analytics section of Qlik Cloud, by pressing the waffle menu in the left-hand corner, we’re given quick access to travel to the other sections once again. The stability of the waffle menu in the upper left-hand corner provides an achor point that can be used throughout your Qlik Cloud experience.
Another addition to the UI is ‘Recents’ which can be found at the bottom of the exposed waffle menu. Recents provides a view of your recently viewed content across activity centers. This means that it doesn’t matter if you were last working on a combination of apps or data projects, they can all be found here, ready for you to get back to work.
This concludes our tour of Qlik Cloud’s new UI. How do you think that Qlik Cloud’s can benefit you and your company? How can this change make you more productive?
