QlikView is a 'new generation' software tool that combines Reporting, Business Intelligence and Web Query into a single product. It has the most original approach to reporting and data analysis and was recently dubbed a 'cool BI product' by Gartner (who have now included it in their BI Magic Quadrant).

QlikView is very easy to implement and use. It can be installed in a productive environment in days (not months) and users are trained in a couple of hours (not days). The cost benefits that it offers are therefore significant.

Apart from its ease of use, it is very good at combining data from various sources (multiple databases, text files, Excel, etc...). This is particularly useful when people keep their budgets or any other key information outside the ERP system. It also allows companies to capitalize on their legacy systems by adopting the most updated tools and technologies.
