Comprehensive Catalog
Bring together all your content for easy access
Onboard data and content from diverse sources into a single, easy-to-access collection. Powerful data onboarding lets you quickly simplify and scale the process of describing and understanding the contents of data sets, apps, automation workflows, business terminology and other assets.
Our integrated catalog of technical, operational, and business metadata empowers people to easily search and immediately use trusted, relevant data.
End-to-End Lineage
Build confidence in every dataset
Qlik automatically finds and documents any relationships between datasets and across multiple BI tools. This lineage provides visibility on the source and journey of each dataset.
Users can quickly understand the origin, evolution, and meaning of the data. Data engineers can better troubleshoot issues like potential duplications, maximizing data quality. And this builds trust in your data and analytics, increasing usage and confidence in the insights and actions that follow.
Powerful User Experience
Drive analytics usage. Easily find, use and share data.
When people are empowered with on-demand access to trusted analytics-ready data, they can answer more questions, make better decisions and take informed action faster than ever. With Qlik, users can easily find, preview and select the content they need with powerful search across all their datasets, apps, notes and other content. This content includes a business glossary to help ensure that everyone in the organization speaks the same language when referring to key business terms.
And with a single catalog, you can eliminate silos, ensure consistency, and foster collaboration and reuse to get far more value from your data.
