OQLIS HOSTS DEBUT PARTNER AWARDS EVENT

"I think that's the key thing that we're trying to do with data and with our software is to really light up those insights for our customers and partners,"? says Andrew Bosma (CTO) about the inspiration behind the event name.?

?What a valuable evening with our partners, customers, potential customers, and colleagues it was! To all who joined, thank you. For those who couldn't, we have you covered:

DATA UNIFIED

Andrew Bosma delivers powerful keynote to LUMIN23 guests

With a decade's experience in running a Data Intelligence Software company, OQLIS Co-owner and CTO, Andrew Bosma has learned a thing or two about customers' needs. In his engaging keynote slot at LUMIN23, he identified 6 universal needs for customers:?

1. Customers want to see, manage, and business data from disparate systems in their ecosystem - unified into a single version of the truth
2. They require a fully integrated single portal for their teams
3. They want to save resource time through automated report generation.
4. They need a software suite that is accessible anywhere, whether on-prem or in the cloud.?
5. Customers need a solution that is scalable and distributable amongst teams or customers.?
6. Data as a product: They want to start monetising their data.

This awareness of the customer's needs has shaped OQLIS into the platform it is today, able to service all the above points. And continuously aiming to identify new needs to fulfill and better the offering.?

Watch this space for the video of Andrew's full presentation, to be released soon.?
