Advizor is a Bell Labs spinoff, headquartered in Chicago, that specializes in interactive data visualization and predictive modelling. The company provides data discovery through a range of sophisticated visualizations that particularly appeals to advanced users. It also delivers predictive modelling capabilities, an in-memory database, and client tools for the Web and iPad. Regular users can use these capabilities to gain insights consuming highly interactive dashboards, but Advizor's real value will be better perceived by power users doing ad hoc visual analysis — replacing or complementing query and table-based analytics from other tools.

Today’s fundraising environment needs to work with a Wealth of Information…
Decisions

The Challenge:
Most fundraisers blanket their prospects with a myriad of messages delivered through a variety of media. Some of these messages connect well with certain prospect segments, some fall flat.
Unfortunately, given the sheer volume of activities, untangling what worked and what didn’t can often be a challenging process.
Such a process involves accessing large amounts of data, often from different systems, and then scouring it, slicing and dicing it in different ways to find
patterns and trends.

“The combination of data discovery and visualization enables users to uncover hidden relationships they didn’t know existed.
I’ll often hear, ‘Why didn’t we have this data before?’ If fact they did have it – in a report. They just didn’t see it.”
