Client

The company is headquartered in Reston, VA, USA, with a robust global presence providing businesses worldwide with the authoritative identity tool for gaining valuable marketing insights.

Product

In partnership with Neustar, Intersog developed PlatformOne, a data intelligence tool that identifies and segments potential buyers across social platforms, including Facebook and Instagram, identifies trends in media, quickly analyzes the efficiency of the marketing campaigns, and evaluates audience metrics.

Key Features

Challenge

As mentioned above, the cooperation between Intersog and Neustar lasted for a decade. Over that time, we’ve encountered a variety of challenges and had to implement all sorts of improvements and updates to keep the platform relevant and fully functional. 

Our cooperation started in 2007, and the main challenge then was to develop a new report manager and update the legacy web application based on the Aggregate Knowledge Discovery Engine. The legacy application sufficed for a time, but it was getting outdated by the day, and for that reason, Aggregate Knowledge needed some substantial changes. As you can tell, that was just the beginning of a fruitful partnership that was one of the longest we’ve ever had.
