QlikView to Qlik SaaS
QlikView is a guided analytics solution whereas Qlik SaaS is cloud based managed service based on Qlik Sense Platform.
Qlik Sense is the next version of QlikView that not only provides better visualizations but also enables users to collaborate with self service capabilities.
Qlik SaaS goes a step further where you do not have to bother about installing or managing your own deployment. In addition, all new features such as AutoML are either exclusively for SaaS or are being rolled out earlier in Qlik SaaS making it a natural choice for new deployments and migrations.
