The power of the Kognitio's DaaS solution with WX2 means that as demand grows, we switch on more blades, or as it diminishes, we shut off some blades. It is flexible; we don’t have to invent a fast wheel that already exists. The beauty of Kognitio’s DaaS is that it is an on-demand service. To have that kind of processing power on demand is groundbreaking.

We can use that data along with our retail expertise to provide insights and recommendations that aren't available elsewhere, driving competitive advantage for our clients. Kognitio demonstrated its commitment to work with us in developing and implementing a cloud-based solution that would give us a permanent, low-cost research and development platform as well as a production environment that meets our changing needs. We regard Kognitio as a true partner in our business, and our success.

By doing such a simple correlation as matching sales data to staffing levels, we have already realized significant cost savings. The return on our investment is tremendous.

When I spoke to Kognitio I explained I had a marketing manager's nightmare. I was very successful, but I had no idea why. Now I know exactly why, how to sustain and what to do to increase that growth.

Enabling that kind of rapid response is where Kognitio Cloud provides us with a higher degree of performance. It is proving to be an ideal platform to analyze immense amounts of information, and quickly derives results so that we can put that information to immediate use.

Kognitio demonstrates absolutely jaw-dropping performance and is backed up by real IT professionals with a passion for what they do and how they do it. They blew the socks off the competition in the POC, delivered the appliance ahead of schedule and have been an absolute joy to work with from start to finish. When the Kognitio Analytical Platform hands back the answer before we’ve thought of the question, we’ll be satisfied. Until then we remain ecstatic.

Thanks to Kognitio we are now getting results in faster than ever before; prior to seeing Kognitio in action, we would have thought this to be impossible. This level of retail analysis will give us a leading edge over our competitors; Kognitio is a disruptive force for good.

We’re committed to helping our customers find the best travel products and solutions, and we look for the right technology and model to enable that. The Kognitio service model fits right in with our strategy; by outsourcing the analytical infrastructure piece to Kognitio, our business teams can now analyze large volumes of data from across our business, running complex, massive queries, and get answers to their questions in just seconds and minutes. Before, it would often take days to get a handle on the data even before we could understand it. Now our analysts can almost immediately use the data and drive analytics to find out things that they previously did not know, and use that knowledge to enable the creation of new, leading-edge travel products and solutions.

Speed and responsiveness are pivotal to our ability to serve clients, both in the delivery of advertising vehicles and the power to analyze how effectively clients ads are driving customer awareness and purchasing behavior.

Kognitio gives us the chance to go beyond the confines of typical databases – we can now run queries and answer them in sub-second response times, we can do ad hoc analyses "on the fly", and the scalability of the platform grows with our data volumes.

We were very impressed with the fast speeds at which Kognitio can be deployed. Once we had placed our order, we installed the software on pre-existing hardware in our data centre and with the help of Kognitio, we went online with our 10TB system within just ten weeks. We appreciate the responsive support that Kognitio and its implementation teams have given us; it’s reassuring to have a company ready and on-hand to make our installation a success. We look forward to using Kognitio to dive even deeper into our data and using the insight gained to improve our operations.

Our first product was a general purpose SQL system that was more geared towards processing transactions than crunching data.

One benefit of Kognitio WX2 is that we can ask oblique, train-of-thought questions without any pre-programming or the necessity to pre-select data. And we get the answers while we still remember why we asked the question.

For a whole decade, we have been able to rely on Kognitio and its technology to help us stay ahead of the game. We have true insight into our business and the effects that pricing changes would have on it. It’s incredibly beneficial to the company to be able to analyse all the data as opposed to data samples and assumption-based analysis.

Chip & PIN authentication of credit and debit card transactions became mandatory in February 2006, forcing Marks & Spencer Bank to issue new cards to its 2.5 million financial customers and this could have been a costly and disruptive exercise. But, working with Kognitio, Marks & Spencer Bank used Chip and PIN migration to cement customer loyalty, drive new sales and increase profit.
