QlikView Main Features

  • What is In-Memory Technology in QlikView?

    QlikView uses powerful in-memory technology to load all raw data from connected sources directly into the server’s RAM. This means queries and analyses are executed at lightning speed—without constantly accessing slower hard drives or the original data source. The result: outstanding performance, even when working with massive datasets, enabling faster insights and smarter decision-making.

  • What Does “Associative Technology” Mean?

    QlikView’s associative technology is at the very heart of the platform. It connects all data points with each other—even if no explicit link has been defined. When you make a selection in one field, all other fields and visualizations instantly update to highlight related data (green), unrelated data (white), and excluded data (gray). This intuitive model empowers users to uncover hidden patterns, relationships, and insights that traditional query-based tools often miss.

  • Which Data Sources Can QlikView Connect To?

    QlikView can connect to a wide range of data sources, enabling flexible and comprehensive analysis. These include:

    • Databases (e.g., SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL).
    • Files (e.g., Excel, CSV, XML).
    • Web services and APIs.
    • OLAP cubes and data warehouses.

FAQ: QlikView – Support Status, Migration & Future

Is QlikView outdated or “obsolete”?

QlikView is here to stay – at least for now. The current version 12.90 (May 2024) will be supported by Qlik until October 2026. After that, an upgrade to QlikView 12.100 – expected in fall 2025 – will be required to remain on a supported release.

However, Qlik’s strategic focus has shifted firmly to Qlik Cloud (including Qlik Sense SaaS). All new features, innovations, modern visualizations, and AI-driven capabilities are being developed exclusively for the cloud platform.

Many organizations still run QlikView successfully, but a growing number are preparing for migration to benefit from the advantages of Qlik Cloud:

  • Unlimited scalability without managing your own infrastructure
  • Self-service BI and automated analytics
  • Seamless integration with modern cloud services

Qlik’s message is clear: Move to Qlik Cloud.

What are Qlik’s plans regarding support for QlikView?

The current QlikView May 2024 (12.90) release is in official regular support until October 31, 2026. After that, you will need to upgrade to QlikView 12.100, expected in fall 2025, to stay on a supported version.

QlikView remains part of the Qlik portfolio – there are no plans for a forced migration. Qlik will continue to provide patches, bug fixes, and security updates to ensure the platform remains stable and reliable.

However, if you want to take advantage of new innovations, AI capabilities, and a modern user experience, you should consider migrating to Qlik Sense or Qlik Cloud. All new features and enhancements are being developed exclusively in Qlik Cloud – including AI-powered analytics, automated insights, modern visualizations, and collaborative capabilities.

Can I migrate my existing QlikView applications to Qlik Sense or Qlik Cloud?

Yes – Qlik offers several options for migrating to the modern Qlik environment (Qlik Cloud):

Helpful tools & programs:

  • Qlik App Migration Tool (QAMT): Converts QlikView applications (QVW) into Qlik Sense or Qlik Cloud apps, including scripts, data models, variables, and partially visualizations.
  • iVIEW Data Automation Framework: Enables efficient migration and standardization of KPIs, ETL processes, and business logic into Qlik Sense or Qlik Cloud.
  • QlikView Converter: Integrated into Qlik Sense, automatically converts QlikView documents (QVW) into Qlik Sense apps to facilitate migration to Qlik Sense Client-Managed.
  • Qlik Analytics Modernization Program (AMP): Provides an overview of licensing options for a gradual, straightforward, and guided migration from QlikView or Qlik Sense Client-Managed to Qlik Cloud.

Migration notes:

  • Scripts & data models: Almost 90% of QlikView load scripts can be copied and pasted into Qlik Sense or Qlik Cloud – usually with only minor adjustments.
  • Visualizations: Many charts can be transferred – complex, custom objects may need to be recreated.
  • Approach: A gradual migration is recommended – ideally starting with less business-critical applications. The Qlik Analytics Modernization Program (AMP) provides flexible licensing options for this.
