Qlik to Power BI Migration: Assessment & Pilot

Looking to unlock the full value of your data by moving away from QlikView or Qlik Sense? As Power BI becomes the analytics standard within the Microsoft ecosystem, many organizations are shifting to achieve better integration, scalability, and user empowerment.

This Assessment & Pilot engagement helps validate the feasibility of a full Qlik to Power BI migration through deep analysis, planning, and hands-on pilot report conversions.

• Does Qlik’s associative model create complexity for centralized governance?
• Are rising licensing costs or platform limitations causing friction?
• Would deeper integration with Microsoft 365, Teams, and Azure improve business agility?
• Do your business teams need more self-service and collaboration in reporting?

With our Qlik to Power BI Assessment & Pilot, you’ll gain clarity through a structured approach grounded in real report migration, user validation, and strategic planning.
