"Tahola really understand Zonal data and the ZBS database. They provided us with the advice that we needed to get our data out of ZBS and they knew how to make that happen. Although ZBS isn’t the full Aztec database, it still gave us the granularity we needed for all of our sales reporting. We were able to get useful insights from our Zonal data and Tahola were able to quickly integrate it with our other data sources into Qlik. And, because Tahola understand the Zonal data and the ZBS database, their ongoing post implementation support has been exemplary."
"Our approach to portfolio rebalancing is the step beyond Markowitz optimisation, taking into account the significant uncertainties in expected return forecast. The results of this are that the efficient frontier (a line in 2D space) becomes a surface in 3D space. This increase of just one dimension makes all existing approaches to portfolio selection incapable of expressing the true choices a portfolio manager faces. We needed to find a technology that was fast to develop, highly interactive and graphical in nature, cheap and easy to change as clients make new demands on this new way of thinking. Only a dashboard approach was going to provide this, and of all the offerings we looked at Qlik SaaS was the only one to offer the speed of development, inbuild multi-dimensional data slicing, user centred investigation and free form selection. Tahola provided an invaluable accelerated runway for the growth of our in-house expertise in Qlik, responding to questions and requests for more detailed assistance quickly, allowing our Qlik development to proceed without interruption. I continue to be impressed with their ability to adapt to where we are on the learning curve. We feel we have still not reached the full potential that Qlik and Tahola can provide, and yet we already have an interface that meets our needs and exceeds the expectations of our clients."
