The Qlik April 2020 product release accelerates the path to success for our customers, delivering significant improvements across Qlik's product portfolio. This release is our first synchronized release across the Data Integration and Data Analytics product platforms.

Summary - 5 min

Feature Demonstration - 20 min

We are also excited to announce overall improvements to Qlik’s Data Analytics Platform and supporting product offerings. The Qlik April 2020 Data Analytics Platform release includes product packaging changes, increasing the ease and choice for our customers when investing in Qlik. The new Qlik Sense Enterprise SasS offering helps our customers simplify management and lower the total cost of ownership when selecting our SaaS only enterprise option.  

 

Furthermore, the Data Analytics product release supports the launch of Qlik’s Analytics Modernization Program, which gives QlikView customers better low-cost options to adopt Qlik Sense. Specifically, the April release of QlikView April will allow customers to automate the publishing of QlikView apps to the Qlik Sense Enterprise SaaS hub – which makes it far easier for our customers to consume both products side-by-side.

 

We continue to enhance our SaaS onboarding experience to help our customers get started with Qlik Sense quickly and easily. We now offer new tools and resources in our cloud hub to guide users through Qlik Sense adoption and help them accelerate time to insights.

The following in-product resources are now available:

  • A Qlik Sense quick-start tutorial video with sample data
  • Sample Qlik Sense apps available immediately from the cloud hub
  • User enhancements to the following features to get you from data to insights in an instant:
  • Drag and Drop data into Hub
  • Analyze with Insight Adviser
  • Add charts to your sheets
