Singapore – February 27, 2017 – Qlik®, a leader in visual analytics, today

the 2017 Business Intelligence and Analytics Platform Magic Quadrant report*.
This designation marks the seventh consecutive year that Qlik has been

According to the report, “The business
intelligence and analytics platform market’s shift from IT-led reporting to
modern business-led analytics is now mainstream.” The report goes on to say
that “For their part, buyers want to expand modern BI usage, including for
self-service to everyone in the enterprise and beyond.”

“We are, and will continue to be, a driving
force of momentum in the BI industry,” said Lars Björk, Qlik chief executive
officer. “As the pioneer in this market, Qlik will continue to make bold moves
in building a modern, cloud-ready platform that delivers not only beautiful
visualizations, but a platform for enterprise-class governance and
manageability that can grow with customers on their visual analytics journey.”

Qlik is focused on continuing to expand the
market by creating an extensible, cloud-first platform that companies of all
sizes can consider the centerpiece of their analytics strategy. In January
2017, Qlik announced that Qlik Sense® Cloud Business, its SaaS-based visual analytics solution
is available for SMBs, groups, and teams to create, manage, and share analytics
in the cloud. Powered by the patented QIX Associative Indexing Engine, it
provides the scalability and performance of the industry-proven Qlik visual
analytics platform in a complete cloud environment. With a flexible, low-cost
monthly subscription, streamlined administration and a fully web-based experience,
customers can benefit from Qlik Sense Cloud Business with no capital costs or
commitments.

The company also extended its current mapping
capabilities and moved its offerings beyond visualization with support for a
broad range of advanced geoanalytic use cases with acquisition of Idevio, a
provider of geographical-related software and services. Using patented
technology that compresses and streams mapping data, both Qlik Sense® and QlikView® customers now have the ability to expose hidden geographic
relationships, offering greater insight, better decisions, and higher ROI.

Over these years of continued innovation and
changing the face of BI, Qlik maintains its belief that all people need to
drive analysis from any data source – on premise, in the cloud, in a hybrid
environment, internal or external – without restriction or limitation. With
Qlik’s associative experience users can ask and answer streams of questions to
explore information freely rather than being confined to a predefined path of
questions – because insights come from truly understanding the data from all
angles.
