Vendor marketing and press releases cite a range of customers across industries, including large organizations in defense/engineering, insurance, hospitality and gaming, apparel manufacturing, home furnishings retail, and hotel groups.
Many of the headline metrics presented in vendor marketing (for example, improvements in productivity, turnover, or profitability) lack publicly visible methodology, sample sizes, or third-party validation in the materials reviewed.
