In today's data-driven world, harnessing the power of data is essential for success. At Bear Cognition, our mission is to empower companies with cutting-edge business intelligence and process solutions that drive efficiency and stronger bottom lines for our clients. We specialize in helping industries like marketing, hospitality, retail and supply chain and logistics, achieve goals like enhanced campaign performance, optimized inventory management and outstanding customer experiences. 

But achieving this vision requires seamless data integration — and that’s where Fivetran has been a game changer for us.

From 12-hour delays to instant insights with Fivetran

Before adopting Fivetran, our data management was bogged down by manual processes. We relied on flat files and client-provided Tableau extracts, which often took up to 12 hours to transfer and integrate. This labor-intensive and time-consuming process hampered our ability to provide timely, accurate insights and severely impacted our scalability.

Fivetran significantly improved our operations, enabling us to: 

• Expand the number of data sources ingested: With Fivetran’s fully managed connectors, we now integrate data from CRM systems, financial platforms and various data warehouses, enriching our data sets and delivering deeper insights to our clients. 

• Integrate seamlessly with Snowflake: Fivetran’s integration with Snowflake ensures our data is accessible, secure and scalable. This has allowed us to leverage Snowflake’s powerful data warehousing capabilities, which support an expansive volume of data without compromising performance, optimizing query speeds and facilitating real-time data analysis.

• Drastically reduce data engineering time: What once took days now takes hours. Fivetran’s automation allows us to reduce processing time by dozens of hours per customer, enabling quicker delivery of insights and solutions. This gives our clients the timely strategies they need to stay ahead. 

• Instantly connect to cloud applications: We’ve expanded from databases and flat files to comprehensive data solutions across various cloud platforms, offering advanced data analytics, custom solution development and scalable resource management for clients. 

• Broaden our customer base: Our increased efficiency and scalability have expanded our market tenfold, allowing us to serve clients with complex data needs and positioning Bear Cognition as a leader in business intelligence. This capability enables us to support large-scale projects across more industries, like supply chain and energy, diversifying our client base and reinforcing our position as a pivotal player in the business intelligence landscape.

• Deliver business impact to clients: Streamlined data integration processes enable us to pass on savings to clients, reducing their data management expenses and allowing reinvestment in other critical business areas.

Real-world impact: Transforming a digital marketing agency

Fivetran didn’t just transform Bear Cognition; it empowered one of our top clients — a prominent digital marketing agency — to overcome significant inefficiencies and unlock new revenue opportunities. 

The firm faced several challenges that hindered success, including outdated dashboards, manual reporting and a cumbersome client onboarding process. By integrating Fivetran’s automated data movement platform, we: 

• Enhanced dashboard performance: We redesigned dashboards for faster, more efficient performance.
• Streamlined reporting processes: We simplified reporting processes, dramatically reducing time spent on generating reports and developing solutions. 
• Simplified client onboarding: We enabled the agency to onboard clients more quickly, expanding their business capacity.
• Created new revenue streams: We helped introduce a new service offering, generating $200–$250 additional monthly revenue.

These improvements freed up the agency’s resources, allowing them to focus on acquiring new clients while enhancing their service offerings. With Fivetran, these changes were not only effective but also scalable, enabling the agency to resell enhanced services to their clients.
