We’ve talked with a number of customers who are looking for a SAS Memex replacement, and who are using this as an opportunity to consider expanding their capabilities for data access and analysis.
Memex was intended to be used for consolidating, indexing, linking, and retrieving text content. Certainly very useful, but as some organizations consider what they want in a Memex upgrade, they realize that they would like to do more.
By adopting DataWalk as SAS Memex upgrade, customers can expand their capabilities for data analysis with a simple, cost-effective, modern software platform that enables you to:
- Import and connect all your data for easy search and analysis, without the costly, time-consuming process of first creating a data warehouse. You can consolidate and connect structured and unstructured data; from internal or external sources; including databases, subscription services, OSINT, and Excel/PDF files.
- Easily do visual analysis across all of this data, via visual querying, an advanced link analysis facility, Natural Language Processing (NLP), geospatial analysis, and various other DataWalk facilities.
- Generate push-button Summary reports, as well as Folders which enable you to view all available information associated with a person, vehicle, location, or anything else.
- Securely collaborate, with highly granular security controls so that you can ensure data elements and work product can only be accessed by those with whom you want to share.
- If desired, incorporate additional scripts/applications via the DataWalk App Center. Through the App Center you can incorporate machine learning models, neural networks, and take advantage of the enormous variety of open source software products providing a vast array of capabilities.
- Easily export data as Excel/CSV files, link chart images, or PDF reports; and support automated downstream processes.
- Meet the data access and analysis needs for everyone from power analysts to leadership.
DataWalk delivers all this at a fraction the price of what you might expect for a sophisticated Enterprise-class software platform. Some Memex customers have even found that for the same cost they’d pay for annual maintenance, they instead can buy DataWalk!
So, if you’re looking for a SAS Memex upgrade, take a look at DataWalk!
