There are A TON of new features coming in version 9. Big changes in usability overall.
You can access the beta as a registered customer or partner here: http://www.qlikcommunity.com/qv9beta/
My favorite new features so far:
- iPhone client. Zoom in. Shake to clear. Lots of fun.
- Java client for everyone else, including Blackberry.
- Removal of the 2 billion record limit. Now your record set is limited by RAM and CPU power.
- Dynamic data update. Update data in the QlikView document without a reload through APIs and standard SQL statements. When used on the server, it will PUSH the data out to the clients.
- Export QlikView documents as XML. QlikView documents (no data) can be stored in version control systems. Differentials can be generated. This also means that QlikView documents can be programmatically generated!
- Document chaining. Open one document from another and apply selections. Great for working with segmented QlikView documents when data volumes get very large. Can also be combined with the programmatic QlikView generation in interesting ways!
- Actions and Trigger Actions are replacing macros. Oh please, oh please be the end of macros!!
- Set Analysis can now reference other fields, as in “Select all possible values in Customers based on a Sales last year”.
- Sparklines. Mr. Tufte, your “tiny” contribution is everywhere. Cool.
- Trellis charts. I’m quite proud of this since it was originally my suggestion!! Woo hoo!
- Dynamic background charts. Swap out map backgrounds as selections are made.

I like what I see. Still hoping for a Path Analysis Chart
I’m registered partner, but I can’t find a download link, is it removed again?
No, they haven’t taken it down. It’s a semi-public beta. They may need to update your account info, but I don’t know.
