About Faber-Castell
Function – Business Intelligence & IT
Industry – Consumer Products
Faber-Castell is one of the world's oldest and most trusted brands in writing, art, and office supplies. Globally offering a diverse portfolio of thousands of products worldwide, its Indian subsidiary, founded in 1998 and headquartered in Mumbai, has become a household name across India.
As its operations scaled, Faber-Castell aimed to modernize its analytics and data landscape. But instead of a disruptive overhaul, they pursued a smart evolution — retaining what worked while adopting modern cloud capabilities.
Testimonial
At Faber-Castell, our goal was to modernize our analytics landscape by transitioning to Qlik Cloud, making full use of its AI capabilities, collaboration tools, real-time alerts, and workflow automation. We needed a partner who could ensure a fast, low-risk migration without disrupting daily operations or requiring a major infrastructure change.
The WoWizer team, with their strong expertise in Qlik and cloud migrations, expertly guided us through the process using the WoWizer Migration Accelerator Toolkit. Their structured approach — from inventory assessment to dependency mapping and migration strategy — made the transition to Qlik Cloud smooth and seamless.
Thanks to WoWizer’s automation tools and deep delivery expertise, we successfully completed the migration in record time!

Mumbai, India
Challenges
Modernize without disruption.
Wanted to use new Qlik features available only in the cloud, such as automatic alerts and workflow automation.
They also had existing systems like NPrinting reports that were tightly linked to their current setup and couldn't be disturbed.
At the same time, they didn't want to change everything overnight or move their entire data setup to the cloud from their existing on-premise environment.
The goal was to modernize without disrupting daily work or causing extra risk.
