Switch from

Qlik

to Luzmo

Qlik has long been a heavyweight in business intelligence, with a powerful associative engine and enterprise-ready security. But when it comes to embedding into your SaaS product, Qlik is complex and heavy. White-labeling and custom domains require workarounds, and licensing models are tailored for enterprise IT, not SaaS scaling.

Luzmo delivers the same flexibility for developers and business users, but without the enterprise baggage. You get CSS-level branding, out-of-the-box multi-tenancy, and pricing built for embedding at scale. Instead of bolting on a BI tool, you integrate analytics that feels native from day one.

Get a taste of what's possible with true embedded analytics. Try Luzmo.
