挑战
With booming business comes growing pains. Businesses that accept various forms of payments from their customers need to be efficient in managing their finances. A lack of visibility leads to various issues and redundancies. About 7 years ago, Spectrio was entering each receivable manually and using a check scanner. This resulted in countless errors and double-entry work, which prompted them to secure a bank lockbox 4 years ago. This allowed them to print out lockbox reports and manually reconcile those numbers. Still, they encountered issues due to the company doubling in size since 2011, requiring one full-time employee to spend about 30 hours per month on data entry, which was not an efficient use of company resources.
关于客户
Spectrio is a full-service audio and video marketing company based in Florida, with satellite offices all over the U.S. They provide solutions that engage customers, such as on-hold messaging, digital signage, and content-appropriate music, among other products. With a recurring revenue-based business model, Spectrio brings up to $100,000 in monthly bills and accrues 2,000 to 3,000 invoices per month. They receive approximately 2,700 paper checks per month.
解决方案
Spectrio had previously worked with Celigo in the past, and so when Celigo announced its Lockbox connector, Spectrio jumped at the chance to use the product. Entries started matching at a 90% level and freed up employee time to work on more valuable tasks. Whereas previously they needed to wait until close of business, now Spectrio is able to see finances in real-time. Celigo’s Lockbox connector worked so well that Spectrio employees were worried about possible job loss due to removed inefficiencies.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
