Spectrum Spatial Insights by Precisely (based on the former GeoInsight by Pitney Bowes) helps users to test strategies, taking into consideration key market and competitive drivers. Detailed forecasts and financial impact assessments can be created for every scenario, to provide an actionable, defensible plan of action. Ultimately, this enables users to know a projected Internal Rate of Return (IRR) before making capital decisions.

Q Research Software, a division of Displayr, offers a predictive analytics application for marketers, designed to be easier to use by automating correct statistical to use, drag-and-drop interface for building models, and the ability to read many types of files (e.g. SPSS data files) and able to output the desired file type for presentation, with graphics.
As previously mentioned, as long as the web platform works, the software is quite useful. However in places or areas where the platform operates with low standards (poor reception signal), the versatility and usefulness of the program decreases considerably. This type of problem in developed countries probably does not occur, or if it occurs it does very infrequently. But in non-developed countries, the frequency of occurrence can be a factor to take into consideration when choosing an program based exclusively on a web platform.

We use Q for quantitative data. If you know what you are doing it can still take a bit of time to manipulate your data into the most suitable format for the software to help you. But it is time well spent because once it's set up, Q makes the analysis a breeze. We use it for producing data tables, word clouds, significance testing, audience segmentation and coding of open-responses.

It allows us to visualize data with extreme ease, through maps and graphs, patterns and tendencies.
This visualization allows, in turn, to make decisions more quickly and with a greater amount of information than what a good part of software of the same nature allows.

Being a web-based platform can, in some cases, be counterproductive, especially in areas where internet and satellite coverage are of low quality or are not available, such as jungle areas.
The results obtained, in most cases, need to be interpolated, in order to completely characterize the study area.
The interpolation functions are those that are typically used in commercial software used in this area of study, and have the same limitations. When using it I have not found any novelty regarding this.

The pricing model is a little restrictive for smaller teams that only really need one license but have to buy a 2nd to help out modest users/users learning the ropes.
Learning the basics can take quite a bit of time but they offer plenty of free resources that help you through it step-by-step

In comparing GeoInsight to other products, I will not be of much help since this software is, as far as I know, almost exclusively used in activities related to the financial world, rather than geographical. That is why it is usually included in software of the AML (Anti-Money-Laundering) type. My interest in the program was to see its capacity for data storage and practical utility to facilitate decisions, compared to other software but more linked to geographic information (GIS software).

We still use Excel in order to use Q, but all the analysis happens in Q. No need to learn formulas or reformat spreadsheets. Q does all the heavy lifting.

The use of the software allowed the minimization of activities associated with logistical support to field staff. That reduced the time associated with these activities by about 15% of the initially estimated time.
The aforementioned reduction translated into decreases in expenditures in the order of $ 2000 / day.
