Testimonials

• Daniel Pelos, Business Analyst, TwentyCi Ltd 
  "Having worked with Apteco for three years I have found the technology to be very competitive compared with the other Marketing Analysis software available. FastStats Discoverer is extremely user friendly and is visually very appealing to potential clients seeing the software for the first time. FastStats Designer is very easy to use whether creating a new FastStats system or editing an existing one. The ability to provide clients with Excelsior rather that offering a FastStats solution is also a big benefit when dealing with smaller clients with a lower budget. Apteco release new versions of the software every quarter which again is beneficial to clients as it keeps up-to-date with technology."

• Joseph Nathan, Director Research & Customer Insight, The Economist Group
  "Apteco have a great team and suite of products: FastStats in particular allows us to analyse our data with great ease to provide powerful insights. We've been using it since 2000 and there is no other product out there that compares.”

• Paul King, Director of Marketing Enablement, Ogilvy One (concerning the Unilever system)
  "The transition of almost five billion data records from a high complex legacy system, which included the build of a new data warehouse with a tailored front-end application (FastStats), was achieved by Alchemetrics within a four month period - an absolutely amazing success by any standards! Counts on the new system (FastStats) now take only seconds, whereas previously they took a minimum of 30 minutes.”

• Matthew Tamea, Solutions Consultant, Occam DM
  “Occam has worked in partnership with Apteco for many years, utilising both the WebLink and Discoverer (as well as the original desktop) versions of FastStats. Over this time we’ve seen the application grow from a relatively simple flat file based system to a beautiful looking, easy to use web-enabled application. Our clients love FastStats because the user interface combines great power with intuitive ease of use, making it accessible to a broad range of end users within our client organisations, for everything from a simple selection to complex data modelling, making the whole experience both visually stimulating and factually accurate. Occam looks forward to implementing the power of FastStats to the benefit of our clients for many years to come.”

• Jeremy Green, Sales Manager, Centaur Direct Marketing
  “We find the current version of FastStats Discoverer to be an invaluable aid to creating appropriate data selections for our clients. The options to readily access 'favourite' lists and store and retrieve counts at will are particularly useful.

  "Apteco are operationally second to none, all the guys are fantastic..."
  "I have been using FastStats since 1997 so I have seen the application evolve through time ensuring the primary focus is always delivering insight to the finger tips of Campaign Managers, Database Analysts and Marketing Managers. The beauty about the FastStats application is you don’t need to be a programmer to use it or a statistician to understand it. The only requirement for the user is to understand the data that’s in it and the business you’re in. FastStats has given me the facility to produce the analysis I need in aiding major marketing decisions from campaign strategies, customer file complexion reports to profiling and modelling, without a reliance on IT experts.”
