“We’ve built an unrivaled array of software solutions, analytics, and services that provide a singular platform for nearly any analytical need inside of a CPG office. Where a customer traditionally needed 3 or 4 different software platforms, now all they need is ENGINE, this is going to be very disruptive. We’re doing so many things with so much data, it’s hard to summarize what we do in a sentence.” says Engine CEO Nick Dozier.
Customers use ENGINE’s AnalyticsHUB to automate daily reporting and dashboarding, DataFlow to automatically ingest data from Major Retailers and transport it to leading cloud providers like Snowflake and Azure Databricks, and several other proprietary software solutions to bring advanced capabilities to their teams.
An Industry first DirectConnect to the data allows advanced users, developers, and data scientists true programmatic access to the data using ENGINE’S SQL, R, PYTHON libraries, and visualization tools like Tableau and PowerBI, not to mention the customizable platforms inside of ENGINE. Business Users and Data Engineers can work in the same environment.
