Ironside, an Enterprise Data and Analytics firm, was featured in a Wall Street Journal article highlighting AI consultants that enable their clients to be self-sufficient with AI and not have to rely on their consulting counterparts to manage the model. A key part of Ironside’s strategy is having a broad portfolio of technology partners to see how they fit together to provide more value to our mutual customers. Two partners that fit together well are Precisely, an industry-leading Data Provider, and AWS, an Industry cloud leader. Precisely and AWS are technology partners — Precisely Data is offered through the AWS Marketplace and AWS Data Exchange. Ironside saw an additional opportunity for them to work together and Precisely was very interested to move forward. 

Through Ironside’s combined expertise, in both Amazon QuickSight and Precisely’s expertly curated location data, they designed an enhanced business user experience for Amazon QuickSight customers.  In this solution, Ironside leveraged Amazon QuickSight’s ability to ingest multiple data sources (like Precisely Points of Interest data stored in S3/Redshift/Snowflake) in addition to customer data repositories to create enriched Insights.

Ironside’s Practice Lead for Business Intelligence, Scott Misage, shared, “As the diversity and volume of data increase, organizations need to find ways to harness this data explosion and find pathways to bringing additional insights and intelligence to visualizations and dashboards. By leveraging the capabilities of these two complementary partners, it’s easier than ever for organizations to accelerate time to value with analytics.”

For Precisely’s Sales and Consulting teams, their Amazon QuickSight environment, created by Ironside, will provide them a User Experience to demonstrate how their data can enhance customers’ AWS data platform strategy. Matt Reaves, Vice President, Channel Sales at Precisely shared, “Ironside’s vision and expertise in execution has given our customers and sales teams great tools to showcase how Precisely Data can increase the value of their adoption of AWS. Ironside’s work with the QuickSight platform helps to demonstrate context for our multiple datasets.” 

Precisely’s Amazon QuickSight environment is supported by Ironside’s Managed Service team with additional expertise from their Business Intelligence Practice. As new features in Amazon QuickSight are made available, Ironside works to incorporate them into the environment and assists the Precisely teams with understanding how these releases impact a customer’s use of Precisely Data for enriched Insights.
