I was leading the efforts of setting up a business intelligence function. I was surprised how complex this all was to do even today. It's something that every tech company would need at some point but it hasn't been simplified. You need a whole team focused on building a data warehouse, setting up the right pipelines, and then integrating a BI tool on top.Definite wasn't only the answer to this problem, it tackled the next problem I knew I'd have as soon as the BI tool was ready — how do we get non-technical teams and people to learn and utilise such a tool.

Our analytics before Definite consisted of dozens of Excel sheets that took hours to update. Manual updates led to errors. Everyone questioned the accuracy of the numbers. Many people just stopped looking at the reports.After Definite, everything ran like clockwork.All our data was automatically updated and our dashboards were sent at the same time every day. We could also slice the data in the app however we needed.We immediately saved thousands of dollars per month in the time spent updating reports and have built strategies (e.g. improved ROI on ad spend, inventory management, etc.) on the data that will yield millions to our bottom line.
