Our take
Location-based services are now part of our everyday lives, but there are still gaps in the way location information interacts with accurate data. Uberall solves this problem by connecting companies with local customers through search and discovery, engagement and conversion.
Uberall helps brick-and-mortar companies to provide more accurate information about themselves across the apps that customers use to discover them. The company's impressive roster of customers now includes Hyundai, Pizza Hut and Lufthansa, as well as a raft of small- and medium-sized businesses.
This breadth of Uberall's customer base is a testament to the benefits it brings to businesses. The company continues to expand and diversify its services, both through acquisitions and platform development. An important integration with Apple Business Connect is also helping solidify its utility for clients, positioning the platform as a top choice for the future.
