Informance is the leading provider of business intelligence software and services to the legal industry.
At Informance we have a real understanding of the legal sector and specialise in providing law firms with a comprehensive suite of business intelligence dashboards based on the award-winning QlikView application. By providing QlikView and its unique in-memory software, we are able to help law firms improve their decision making and operational efficiency and increase their profitability, but without the costs associated with traditional business intelligence and data warehousing solutions.
We know how important it is for firms to know exactly how well their business is doing and which departments, branches, lawyers or matter types are performing the best. And we understand the significance placed on firms to meet financial targets based on present and future results. But for firms still using traditional reporting methods and Excel spreadsheets , exporting and analysing information on client accounts, case material, time-recording and fee-earners from their financial and practice management systems can be a time-consuming and often daunting task.
As part of our legal sector expertise, we specialise in integrating QlikView with a number of legal practice management and financial management solutions and have developed unique, interactive legal dashboards that focus on the data reporting and analytical requirements of law firms.
So welcome to QlikView

It offers a complete analysis of information, all displayed in intuitive fee-earner dashboard software for:

Read what some of them have to say:
Berwin Leighton Paisner
"QlikView will enable everyone in our firm to have seamless visibility of their own performance, empowering them to monitor their own productivity and become more efficient. Within the first hours of training, it was clear just how much of an impact this technology could have on our firm’s development and success.”
Fentons
“The speed of the QlikView implementation was demonstrated by the fact that we had a working version of QlikView running with our live data within a day”. Internally we are now in a position to share information more easily across all levels of staff which creates more of a buy-in as it allows staff to concentrate on their core activities, knowing that any issues will be flagged up.
Taylor Walton
"We would strongly recommend QlikView and Informance to other law firms as in a marketplace where software companies have taken advantage of the erstwhile profitability of sizeable law firms, QlikView represents excellent value for money".
Tods Murray
“We were instantly impressed by the user-friendly, visual nature of QlikView and its ability to draw off literally any report. We knew it would make our lives easier as it offered something no other business intelligence solution did”.
A. A Thornton & Co
“What sold us on QlikView was its ability to consolidate data from disparate sources and present it in a user-friendly and meaningful way which supports our business planning and performance management activities.”
Winckworth Sherwood
“Our main driver was to provide a business intelligence tool that would enable us to deliver key management and performance data to our lawyers in an efficient and effective way. QlikView's dashboards provide us with the ability to do this and also for our lawyers to interrogate the data, which enables them to focus quickly on specific issues or areas as they arise.”
