Qlik Product Innovation and Direction

Explore our latest innovations and strategic direction for the future.

Our Vision: Active Intelligence™

In today’s digital economy, real-time agility is essential to stay competitive. That requires delivering up-to-date information to the right users at the right times, in a way that enables them to act. But traditional, passive BI can’t meet these demands.

At Qlik, we have pioneered a new approach that creates an end-to-end analytics data pipeline delivering real-time, up-to-date information designed to trigger immediate actions when they matter most – in the business moment. We call this approach Active Intelligence, delivered through Qlik Cloud®, the only end-to-end cloud platform for real-time data integration and analytics.

3 Guiding Principles To Deliver Our Vision

THE SAAS PRINCIPLE

Qlik is a SaaS company

We will market a move to the cloud as customers seek to reduce TCO and increase scale, and maximize customer value through a cloud-first approach that enables rapid innovation, adoption and supports our data strategy.

THE DATA PRINCIPLE

Qlik respects the customers’ data location

Customers will have data that they either cannot or are not willing to move to Qlik’s cloud, and we will support those use cases. We will also embrace a modern data-ops approach delivered as-a-service to build the analytics data pipeline.

THE CUSTOMER PRINCIPLE

Qlik takes care of its customers

We will combine the value of software and services, always on, as customers modernize and move to the cloud. We will protect our customers' investments and provide freedom of choice.

Current Strategic Priorities

Here are our key initiatives driving our product roadmap for 2022:

  • World Class SaaS

    Provide solutions that enable the journey to the cloud, through easy to adopt cloud services that speed time to value and deliver innovation rapidly, delivered via a world-class SaaS platform that leverages an API first approach.

  • Analytics Data Pipeline

    Easily design and execute real-time data pipelines in an automated way, freeing data from sources and enabling users to get the data they need, breaking down barriers between data producers and consumers.

  • Insights for All

    Deliver analytics capabilities that excite new users and keep existing users coming back, with an intuitive first-time experience, best in class collaboration, and mobile and embedded capabilities that deliver insights at the point of decision.

  • Data to Action

    Drive the transformation from passive BI to Active Intelligence by leveraging real-time data, coupled with AI and machine learning to uncover insights that compel and prompt timely action.

  • Customer Success

    Provide solutions that delight and maximize the value of your investments in Qlik by listening to and acting on your feedback, enabling best-practices, driving adoption and focusing on supportability, maintainability, security and quality.
