How Celfocus is helping Enterprises with Analytics and Location Intelligence

Partnering with CSPs and cloud providers, Celfocus’s solution allows enterprise customers to have access to data and analytics for location intelligence.

The solution enables establishing and providing data as a product, which can be easily subscribed or opted out by enterprise customers at any given time accordingly to CSP’s defined pricing model. Data can be explored directly in the platform on reports, dashboards, and map visualisations, extracted via data files, or integrated via APIs.

Built on top of a Data Hub that anonymises and aggregates with Big Data techniques and Cloud processing power, all insights provided run in compliance with applicable privacy laws and regulations, which means that no individuals can be identified or contacted.

The solution can be extended to address every enterprise customer’s needs, integrating their own data, and allowing for additional customised analytics for increased dedicated business value.
