Qlik Accelerate provides custom applications for businesses to maximise quality, minimise time and costs, and expand user adoption

Sydney, AUSTRALIA – August 31, 2016 – Qlik®, a leader in visual analytics, today announced the expansion of its Qlik Consulting Services with the addition of Qlik® Accelerate, a Qlik Consulting service delivering applications designed and built by industry experts for real-life business scenarios. By leveraging Qlik Consulting Services, and more specifically Qlik Accelerate, businesses are able to gain faster insights into their data, maximise the quality of their applications, minimise the time and costs in app development, and further improve user adoption rates. Qlik Accelerate is available to any business that is leveraging Qlik Consulting Services, a dedicated team of industry experts devoted to ensuring the value of a Qlik investment. Based on actual business workflows and a comprehensive set of key performance indicators, Qlik pre-built analytics accelerate custom application development. Once data is loaded, the application is ready to use and is scaled to any business requirement. Pre-built analytics can be further customised on a robust and modern visual analytics platform that can easily adapt to multiple and changing data sources, without the need for ad-hoc, manually intensive processes. This enables the acceleration of user adoption since users do not have to wait weeks to meet their needs and can scale as soon as data is loaded.

“Through Qlik Accelerate, we were able to be up and running much faster with an application that is robust and meets our exact needs,” said Peter Harteveld, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales and Business Development, Compuware. “The Qlik Accelerator suite for Sales Performance has provided us with the foundation to unlock the full potential of Qlik in immediately finding insights within our accounts and opportunities that previously would take multiple hours to find. This has allowed us to manage our business in a much more proactive, focused manner.”

Today, the Qlik Accelerate Portfolio includes:

• Sales Performance: Monitor sales performance and react to changes while deals are still in the pipeline. Adjust more nimbly to shifting organisational and competitive conditions. • Travel & Expense: Gain end-to-end visibility into where travel and expense dollars are spent and more easily identify savings. Align travel and expense with today’s business realities and better predict future patterns. • Supply Chain: Ensure the right inventory, at the right place and time for your customers. Maintain optimal inventory levels at a sustainable cost and improve planning for change. • Healthcare: Improve reimbursement rates and net margin through better health outcomes by monitoring clinical performance and operational productivity.

With additional accelerators on the horizon, Qlik is positioned to design custom applications to meet business needs within other domains such as Financial Services, Retail, Human Resource Management, and Financial Reporting.

“Businesses of all sizes continuously look for cutting-edge ways to get and stay ahead of the competition and need not only an analytics solution to uncover insight, but also consultancy to maximise the value a business receives from such solutions,” said Peter Szary, vice president, global consulting services at Qlik. “By leveraging Qlik Consulting and our team of industry experts, businesses are able to maximise the value of their Qlik solutions swiftly to ensure early and continued user adoption. This leads to a developed framework that turns data into meaningful insights, oftentimes sparking opportunities for individuals to quickly visualise and explore data in depth, reveal associations, and derive insights to drive better business decisions.” For more information about how Qlik Accelerate can empower your organisation to see the whole story that lives within your data, please visit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pzym0ZGyX8.
