Most companies struggle to maximize the value of their process data. Companies need to store and analyze process data so they can operate more effectively, but they continually encounter the same three problems.
• They produce too much data to manage
• The necessary software is expensive
• Analytic tools are overly complicated
These three roadblocks keep companies from moving forward and leave both engineers and executives frustrated. Canary helps companies defeat these problems.
