Pressed for time and wondering how to catch up on things in the data and analytics world? Look no further – here are five things worth knowing this week:
1. Combined miles travelled by all Tableau Conference attendees totaled 103,655,115 miles – if this doesn’t impress, check out this Tableau rendering titled #Data14 Attendees Origin/Destination Matrix, created by Allan Walker, using Tableau, Mapbox, Alteryx, & ESRI – now that’s cool!
2. “Gut feel” is out, data-driven is in – just ask Chip Duden, VP of Business Analytics at Werner Enterprises. Watch this video and see the results Werner Enterprises is experiencing after empowering their analysts with access to better analytics.
3. Maximizing marketing ROI is a breeze with Alteryx and Tableau – thanks to Slalom Consulting, who has created four Marketing Effectiveness Accelerators. Each accelerator contains an Alteryx Workflow, Alteryx Analytical Application, Tableau Dashboard, and the associated data model. These accelerators can be updated regularly and can be used by key decision makers to optimize marketing spend.
4. Alteryx is not only the “coolest”, we’re now officially HOT – as named by JMP Securities to the “Hot 100 List of Best Privately Held Software Companies”. Alteryx was selected based on the JMP software research team’s evaluation of the company’s financial growth, product and services, quality of leadership, customers and market potential. Alteryx was also recently recognized earlier this year as one of CRN’s 25 Coolest Emerging Vendors of 2014.
