Agilos business blog 

Agilos has decided to invest in a customer success function. But first, I want to briefly introduce the topic with a reference to an article about the link between customer success and Saas.

Agilos provides a fully managed Qlik environment. We take care of the entire cloud infrastructure, installation and management of the Qlik Sense environment. This offering is bundled with the Agilos security framework and our own management portal for user management.

(Nederlandstalige versie van het artikel: The value of BI - Data als een strategische troef)

On entend souvent dire que la donnée est le nouvel or noir de l’économie numérique. Mais c’est clairement l’information, plus que la donnée, qui peut offrir à l’entreprise un véritable avantage concurrentiel et devenir un atout stratégique majeur. Mais pour passer de la donnée à l’information, l’entreprise doit être ‘data driven’ en exploitant au mieux la business intelligence, outil décisionnel par excellence. Explications.

Annual awards honor outstanding achievement and innovation for joint customer success

May 17, 2017 - QONNECTIONS 2017, Orlando, FL – Qlik®, a leader in visual analytics, today announced the winners of its annual global and regional partner Awards. Presented at Qonnections 2017, the Company’s global customer and partner event, the awards recognize the Qlik partner community for excellence in several different categories.

It is of course an honour to have been nominated in the Trends Gazelles listing this year and we are delighted to be recognised as one of the fastest growing business intelligence companies in the country. It’s a sign, both to our customers and competitors, that we are established and here to stay.

Trends trends trends … so what?

Top 10 tech trends for 2017. Top 5 BI trends for 2017. Etc etc. It’s that time of the year when all those industry watchers, vendors, bloggers and the like come out with their lists and predictions for the new year. It’s not that much different from those ‘5 ways to get rich’ and ’10 ways to lose weight without diet or exercise’ articles. Maybe you’ll find that the latter ones are somewhat less boring than the usual technology trends articles, but the point is (after all): what’s in it for me?

The Internet is not only a network of connected computers, it connects people through Social Media, and daily objects through Internet of Things. How can we use this new information goldmine?

Our connected environment is evolving every day. The days when Analytics were reserved for a little group of data scientists are over. Every person in an organization has now the opportunity to analyze data, no matter its origin, and no matter its complexity. And the origin of the data sources is more and more shifting from internal data towards data available on the Internet.

Some of you might remember my blog about Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence and Analytics Platforms 2015. In the introduction, I wrote “…it's still interesting to see how each of the key players have (slightly) moved”. Well, I can’t say that this year. The 4 BIG traditional BI vendors have dropped out of the leaders quadrant, including IBM, Oracle, SAP and SAS. Bye bye. 3 vendors dominate the leaders quadrant now: Qlik, Tableau and Microsoft.

But there’s one BIG thing the report doesn’t talk about too much, and maybe even the most important one…

Billing in Belgian hospitals is a complex process: data coming from various systems, manual encoding, invoice lines discarded due to billing rules…  Including practitioners in the invoicing process can help avoiding a lot of frustration for all people involved in this process, including also the CFO, the head of administration or the back office. Is it really that simple? Maybe. But why frustration?
