Qlik Sense Enterprise SaaS
This is the full implementation option and is a good option for companies that, along with the cloud model, want to gain greater control over user access and use increased capacities for individual applications (2.5 GB with the possibility of more). This solution can be implemented independently or as part of a Multi-Cloud implementation, and this version gives a wider choice of the type of license:
- Analyzer – a license that allows you to analyse created applications and access to the Self-Service functionality.
- Analyzer Capacity – this is a type of license based on the use of a time unit; when it comes to the available functions, it is the same as the Analyzer license. One license of this type means 1000 minutes of available usage time.
- Professional – a license for developers that allows for both creating applications and managing the environment.
