Your Data Is in the Cloud. Are Your Reports Still Manual?

Mail & Deploy joins Climber for a webinar on 20 October 2026 about moving beyond manual reporting in Qlik Cloud.

We are happy to join Climber for an upcoming webinar exploring a question many organisations face after moving to the cloud: Your data is in the cloud - but are your reports still manual?

Cloud analytics has transformed the way organisations access and work with data. With Qlik Cloud, users can explore information, build dashboards and make data-driven decisions from anywhere. But what about all the reports that still need to be created, personalised and distributed?

Dashboards are an essential part of modern analytics, but they aren't the answer to every reporting requirement.

Management teams may still need a PowerPoint presentation for their monthly meeting. Customers may expect a personalised PDF. Finance teams may require scheduled Excel reports. Operational teams may need a report delivered to their inbox every morning.

The question is no longer whether these reports are needed - but how efficiently they can be delivered.

Even in highly modernised BI environments, reporting processes can remain surprisingly manual: exporting data, applying filters, formatting documents, personalising reports, checking recipients, sending emails - and repeating the process every week or every month.

As the number of reports and recipients grows, so does the effort - and the risk of errors.

Moving your data to the cloud is only part of the transformation. Reporting should evolve too.

This is where automated reporting can make a real difference. With Mail & Deploy, organisations can use their Qlik data to automatically create and distribute personalised reports based on predefined schedules, recipients and business rules.

That means the right information can reach the right people at the right time - without someone having to manually prepare and send every report.

And importantly, automated reporting doesn't replace self-service analytics. It complements it.

Users who want to explore data can work with interactive Qlik dashboards. Users who simply need a specific piece of information can receive an automated report. Both approaches have their place.

For organisations migrating from traditional reporting solutions such as Qlik NPrinting to Qlik Cloud, this is also an opportunity to rethink existing reporting processes.

Instead of simply recreating manual workflows in a new environment, organisations can ask:

The result can be a reporting environment that is not only cloud-based, but also automated, scalable and easier to manage.

We are happy to be joining Climber for the webinar "Your Data's in the Cloud - But Are Your Reports Still Manual?"

In this session, we will look at how organisations can move beyond manual reporting and make automated reporting part of their Qlik Cloud strategy.

A big thank you to Climber for organising the webinar - we are looking forward to sharing practical insights and discussing how reporting can keep up with the move to the cloud.

Your data is already in the cloud. Is your reporting ready to make the move too?
