what is difference between QV server and QV publisher...
QlikView Server is a program that is installed on a physical server (computer) with number of "CAL - Client Access Licences". These allow users to access QlikView files stored on the server, over the internet. When a user loads these documents they are loaded into the browser and the processing for this is mostly done on the server. QlikView Server controls the people who can access the documents on the server using Client Access Licences or "CAL's".
When you buy QlikView server you also buy a number of CAL's. (The starter pack is 10). This entitles 10 named people to access the QlikView server, with standard CAL's there is no restriction on the number of files which can be held on the server, nor of the number of files a user can access.
The licence key is entered on the QlikView server centrally - there is no requirement to for the user to enter any licence information.
QlikView Publisher is a program which allows you to maintain centralised control of all your QlikView files and to schedule when and how they are reloaded and distributed. You can automatically reload files and distribute them to "Web Access Points" or by E-Mail or on an intranet.
With QlikView publisher you can automate the production of (say) file for each salesperson containing only their sales targets and current performance and have it automatically made available to the sales person in the way they have asked (email, on an FTP site, on QlikView Server).

Thanks
Saran.
Hi there,
We are currently investigating the value that publisher offers so could you please extend your response Saran? Could you please explain the extra features and show examples of when publisher is required?
Also, does publisher only distribute a link to qlikview or a PDF? Is there any other scheduling that it offers?
I am finding it hard to gauge the real value of what it offers without getting lost in all the marketing material.
Cheers,
Ryan
I'd also like to figure out what Publisher adds that would make it worth price..
So far the ability to schedule report distribution via email is the only major feature that can not be performed with the standard QV server license.
Bottom line is I don't want or need a sales pitch or any marketing mumbo jumbo.. What the customers need is a chart that lists features and what is available to the customer with each license..
Same thing you'd see if you were trying to sign up for a subscription service with different packages. Standard would give you access to the product. "Gold" or "Premium" would give you the standard access as well as something special that should be worth the price of the "premium" package.
