Velocity Fiber Data Aggregation
Velocity Fiber is an innovative service provider that offers carrier-grade lit and dark fiber wide area networks (WANs) to universities, K-12 school districts, municipalities, and major institutions nationwide. The ability to quickly gather and analyze the latest information from various online sources was essential for Velocity Fiber’s team to enhance existing sales efforts and discover new opportunities. Collaborating with key employees at Velocity Fiber, Adaptful Tech engaged in discussions to gain a comprehensive understanding of Velocity's business model, asking pertinent questions about how the data they collected impacted their sales process at different stages. With this insight, they formulated a detailed scope of work and reviewed it with the Velocity team to ensure it aligned with their objectives. This led to an iterative development process utilizing various software tools, resulting in the creation of a data aggregation hub that featured a modern, user-friendly dashboard allowing users to delve into a rich network of related information. The new proprietary software platform, owned by Velocity Fiber, significantly enhanced the efficiency of data collection, aiding in filtering existing sales opportunities and discovering new ones, while also saving the company thousands of dollars annually in software costs and the time required for data gathering and analysis. Emily Lomaka, COO, praised Randy and Chris for their friendly and communicative approach throughout the process, stating, “They made our objectives feel very achievable and creatively tackled challenges regarding our essential features. Their valuable mid-development suggestions greatly enhanced the final product. We continue to collaborate with them for troubleshooting and feature additions, and they remain highly responsive and easy to work with. It was a great experience!”
