The report states that: “In addition to the usual point and click UI, Qlik’s associative in-memory engine also allows users to simply start typing and anything that matches in its entire in-memory dataset is instantaneously highlighted. Such exploratory UI is one of the reasons customer references awarded Qlik one of the highest scores for business value in terms of ROI.”

“We recognized the power of the platform when we developed Qlik Sense, knowing that with our powerful associative engine at the core, we could grow with our customers throughout their data analytics journey,” said Lars Björk, Qlik Chief Executive Officer. “It is important to us to have an open platform that goes beyond visualizations to offer a full spectrum of capabilities from augmented analytics to enterprise-class governance.”
