Our take
Every business wants to improve performance. As data becomes richer and more accessible, the potential for performance improvement becomes greater. Quorso's software turns overwhelming information and data into personal, highest-impact actions for every manager and business leader.
For many companies, vast investment into IT has not been met by equal growth in productivity, as it can be difficult to translate the masses of information from big data into specific actions. Quorso's powerful, behind-the-scenes algorithms are met by an easy and intuitive interface, making it quick to grasp and implement. The Quorso Copilot leverages intelligent workflows to help businesses take effective action, whilst measuring impact and surfacing crowdsourced business insights automatically to central teams. Every level of store operations is connected in a single tool, ensuring each colleague is always doing their most productive work to hit KPIs and drive continuous improvement.
Quorso has already seen success with market leaders such as Dollar General, Walmart International, Tractor Supply Company and more of the biggest retailers in the world.
