Using a consistent and intuitive “drag and drop” approach throughout, Discoverer provides a unique combination of speed and power for data exploration and understanding.

Discoverer’s analysis options are virtually unlimited as any technique can be applied to any results in any order.

FastStats Designer

Designer is a graphical Extract, Transform and Load tool for configuring and loading KbaseT FastStats systems.

You can connect to standard data sources and build a FastStats system (the hub of KbaseT) with just a few mouse clicks. This speed and ease of use makes it practical to use FastStats to explore ad-hoc marketing and analysis data.

FastStats Server is the data analysis server used by FastStats WebLink. FastStats Server uses sophisticated data compression, indexing and query optimisation to deliver analysis results on millions of records in seconds. FastStats Server is a fully 32-bit, COM compliant server supporting multi-threaded, multi-server architectures.

FastStats Classic

FastStats delivers high speed analysis for customer relationship management on large data sets.

FastStats Classic can also include an add-on module, Cascade. FastStats Cascade is a campaign-planning module and performs rapid hierarchical deduplication down a matrix of marketing cells calculating the net and cumulative counts and costs.
