20 Revolution Analytics Testimonials

"I use [Revolution R Enterprise] for building prototypes because it’s fast and easy to make adjustments. I can build the prototype and just let it run, because it’s very fast!"

“Sure there are other programming user groups in the quant finance world, but the community is certainly not like something I’ve ever seen in terms of just the amount of people. There’s a real collective sense of ownership for this thing. Because in the end, the data community does write it, they do contribute to it, and it’s in their own interests to promote it to other users and keep that growth going.”

"The Revolution R Enterprise 5.0 environment has delivered order of magnitude performance improvements, which has allowed our department to process four times the amount of analytics jobs. The researchers are now able to run, evaluate, modify and re-run their models multiple times to get more precise conclusions. It’s been amazing."

"De facto, R is already a significant component of Pfizer core technology. Access to a supported version of R will allow us to keep pace with the growing use of R in the organization, and provides a path forward to use of R in regulated applications."

"Northern Trust went to Revolution Analytics and asked if we could explore the opportunity to parallelize our Monte Carlo simulations."

"We need a high-performance analytics infrastructure because marketing optimization is a lot like a financial trading. By watching the market constantly for data or market condition updates, we can now identify opportunities for our clients that would otherwise be lost."

"We see a lot of potential in Revolution’s big data package. In the past, people would say that R couldn’t handle big data. That was the number one excuse for not using R. Well, now R can handle big data because Revolution is tackling the problem."

"At the end of the day, our job isn’t about the programming and it isn’t about the system. It’s about getting the work done. I’m all in favor of the solution that lets me get the work done quickly and easily. We’ve been able to do something that we can’t really do otherwise. The speed is pretty remarkable."
