ADVIZOR® helps non-profit fundraisers make better and faster decisions from their existing data - without relying on others to create custom reports or perform complicated queries or analysis.
Our powerful data discovery and analysis software integrates the data from your source systems and immediately delivers it to the desktop in a visual, interactive format that enables your team to easily and intuitively explore it in ways never before possible. As team members are liberated and empowered to access and understand the information they need on their own, they are better able to make fact-based decisions quickly and efficiently, thereby unlocking the true power of your data to:
- Increase giving by clearly identifying the best possible giving prospects
- Cut costs by precisely aligning internal resources to goals and objectives
- Improve campaign and staff performance by managing tightly to best practices
By tapping into new technologies, ADVIZOR's award-winning visual discovery™ software empowers your entire fundraising team along with other stakeholders to collaborate in dynamic and creative new ways. Questions and queries previously constrained by system limitations or requiring weeks of manual preparation time now can be performed in real-time, enabling staff to work faster, smarter and more efficiently. Novel new paths to prospect identification and management can be forged, internal operating processes streamlined, and a clear and complete picture of every aspect of your operations presented through the use of ADVIZOR.
ADVIZOR's in-memory-data-management, interactive visualization, and predictive analytics package can be deployed via PC or the Web to browsers and iPads. Additionally, our seasoned professional services consultants bring years of fundraising expertise to bear in ensuring that the solution is quickly and accurately tailored to your unique fundraising requirements. And we do all of this without unduly taxing your already overworked IT, operations and management staff.

11. Advizor is a Bell Labs spinoff, headquartered in Chicago, that specializes in
interactive data visualization and predictive modelling. The company
provides data discovery through a range of sophisticated visualizations that
particularly appeals to advanced users. It also delivers predictive modelling
capabilities, an in-memory database, and client tools for the Web and iPad.
Regular users can use these capabilities to gain insights consuming highly
interactive dashboards, but Advizor's real value will be better perceived by
power users doing ad hoc visual analysis — replacing or complementing
query and table-based analytics from other tools.

15. The Challenge:
Most fundraisers blanket their prospects with a myriad of messages
delivered through a variety of media. Some of these messages connect
well with certain prospect segments, some fall flat.
Unfortunately, given the sheer volume of activities, untangling what
worked and what didn’t can often be a challenging process.
Such a process involves accessing large amounts of data, often from
different systems, and then scouring it, slicing and dicing it in different
ways to find patterns and trends.

20. “The combination of data discovery and
visualization enables users to uncover
hidden relationships they didn‟t know
existed. I‟ll often hear, „Why didn‟t we
have this data before?‟ If fact they did
have it – in a report. They just didn‟t see
it.”
