At the beginning of the year, I shared our direction for 2021 – including our new release and communication cadence. We have received overwhelmingly positive feedback from our customers and partners who appreciate effortlessly receiving the benefit of new and improved capabilities. To support our rapid cloud delivery, we recently launched a new series to ensure that everyone is aware of all the latest enhancements – “SaaS in 60” found in-product and on social channels. We also continue to get welcome feedback through our ideation process in Qlik Community on additional ways we can add more value and make things even easier for customers.
In Q1, we significantly advanced our technology across our data integration and analytics platforms, delivering more ways to help our customers move to the cloud and optimize their data pipelines for Active Intelligence. We kicked off the year announcing exciting new capabilities that are bridging the use of our integration and analytics offering. Specifically, the SAP BW connector now enables you to modernize your SAP environment and get more value from your investment. And most recently we introduced new data catalog capabilities in SaaS which enables users to easily find, classify and determine which data is best to use for their analytics.
Other notable product enhancements now available include:
