Solution for Critical Mission
Bisnode, a leading global provider of mission-critical data and insights, needed a solution to meet its critical mission.
The organization was once 280 companies, but in 2014, all its brands came under one umbrella.
Bisnode sought a software development partner to deliver sites that reflected its new direction.
It wanted to synchronize 17 sites onto the same Optimizely CMS, align economies of scale, and develop a web solution that supports brand consistency across its markets.
The website platform required integrations with other third-party systems, presenting risks of adaptability and compatibility.
Bisnode's business strategy aimed to drive thought leadership and sales through its website platform.
Its new direction was focused on increasing revenue and minimizing losses in a structured and reliable way.
Bisnode's experts work daily to interpret, refine, and understand all the data that forms the basis of its clients' business decisions.
The organization helps companies find and manage customers through the entire customer lifecycle, matching and analyzing their data with its data and the data that today's connected world generates, also known as Big Data.
