For a long time, companies have been using so called “best-of-suite” solutions, an all-in-one system meant to hold all the data and information a company needs to operate. However, it is difficult to find a system that fits the needs of all the departments in your company, and the many different daily tasks that are carried out. Instead of having just one system that only covers the most important needs for each department, businesses can have the “best-of-breed” by combining the best systems for each task to cover all needs.

With our product Sesam Talk, we offer synchronisation-as-a-service, enabling businesses to have the “best-of-breed”. This means that data can be updated continuously and synchronised in real time across all systems, and the company can make changes and replace systems without having it affect their data quality.

Read our article on how Sesam can provide your business with the "best-of-breed"!

If you're running a business, you need to keep an eye on the churn rate. Churn rate refers to the percentage of customers who stop using your product or service within a certain period and is a crucial indicator for business growth. It impacts financial metrics like recurring revenue, customer lifetime value, and customer acquisition cost.

The churn rate is calculated by dividing the number of customers who stopped using your product by the total number of customers during that time period. However, nuances like when to define a customer as churned need to be considered. Experts suggest that the benchmark range for SaaS churn rate is 5%-7% annually, but this can vary depending on a company's revenue growth.

Effective communication, both internal and external, is crucial to the success of any business. That is why data silos can pose a significant problem. While silos may be useful for storing grain on a farm, data silos prevent businesses from communicating by keeping data isolated within a single unit, often incompatible with other systems in other units of the organisation. This creates inconsistencies in data and can lead to poor decision-making as units may not receive the necessary information or receive incorrect data.

Businesses need to prevent data silos from occurring to promote effective communication among all departments and allow for better use of data to grow the business. Preventing data silos can reduce data costs by optimizing IT resources and allocating them to other critical areas. The process of breaking down silos involves data integration and implementing a solid data management and governance strategy.

A TechTarget article provides a comprehensive explanation of what data silos are, how to prevent and eliminate them, and the benefits that your business can gain from doing so.

Data is one of the most valuable assets a business has. All factors to develop the business need data, and businesses that have control over their data accelerate. Data provides the information you need to perform day-to-day tasks and make important decisions, and for this to work you need the data to be of good quality.

Getting good data quality is essential, but can also be challenging. Oftentimes, when data is retrieved from one system it loses its meaning making it worthless to other systems and to the users in need of that data.

With Sesam Talk we synchronise data, letting each system maintain its own model and communicate in its own language using semantics, making sure that all your systems are always updated with the right information. Read our article on how to get data value with Sesam Talk.
