<h2>Innovation is key </h2>


<p>Innovate or die — technology companies and startups of all stripes live by this maxim. Every innovation raises the table stakes for customer expectations. Customers now demand more from their products and applications than ever before. Companies are investing in building their own data analytics solutions hoping to meet these needs, but customers are increasingly underwhelmed with the results. </p>


<p>However, technology industry leaders, technology unicorns, and disruptors have reaped the benefits of analytics to rapidly scale, deliver faster releases, and stay on top of trends, without breaking into a sweat. </p>


<p>What are they doing differently to meet customer needs? They are listening to what the market is saying: Embed or become irrelevant.    </p>


<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Embed to innovate </h2>


<p>Embedded analytics give market leaders and their customers the answers they seek — on product usage, asset consumption, or the metrics that matter to their business. </p>


<p>We asked more than 200 business and technology leaders their desired business impact of embedding data in their customer offerings. </p>


<div class="table-responsive">
<figure class="wp-block-table table table-bordered">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>More than 85% said it was to meet customer demand for data. </td>
<td>Driving product stickiness was cited by 73%. </td>
<td>57% cited competitive advantage.</td>
<td>The business impact of embedding analytics, alone, accounts for as much as 36% of their expected annual growth.</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</figure>
</div>


<p>With the right partner, embedded analytics are a catalyst for some of the key innovation outcomes technology companies desire, like product differentiation, development at scale, increasing customer growth and expansion rates, user adoption rates, win rates, and the ability to rapidly go to market with an outstanding and unique user experience. </p>


<p>The five examples in this guide show how some of today’s most forward-thinking technology companies and unicorns forged a partnership with Sisense embedded analytics to quickly deliver value on all crucial fronts. From robotic processing to smart buildings and even marketing enablement software, no matter what software or technology you have, embedded analytics can help you reach your goals faster. </p>
