This article will help you get familiar with finding data on the new platform if you were a client of the QS Analytics Reputation Trackers (Academic Reputation Tracker and Employer Reputation Tracker)
Analytics clients will continue to be able to access the current trackers on the QS Analytics Platform until June 2026, but the next World University Rankings Data will be available only on the new platform HolonIQ.
Content Structure Changes
The QS HolonIQ platform is a complete redesign of the experience, not just a replica of the old platform.
The structure of the data has changed and the content is now organised in Reports, which you can navigate using the Report bar near the top left of the screen.
The table below summarises in which reports you can find the data from Analytics dashboards.
