What our customers say

Having worked with Objective IT for a number of years with developing our online buying portal – the next step for us to improve our customer experience was to integrate an app to the service. This would allow for faster searching , a simpler display and better functionality for our customers using the app ‘on the road’

We found the Objective team very flexible and accommodating. When previously agreed dates for database and reporting consultancy needed changing at short notice, and extra days on site were required, Objective proved very helpful. This is not the case with all tech companies.

Everglade Windows Limited

The dashboards have allowed previously unattainable information to become available to the business in real-time. The data, extracted from multiple sources, has provided management with an immediate insight in to the performance of the business. I look forward to continuing working with Objective in order to further develop our reporting suite.

The Military Balance+ allows subscribers in the government, armed forces and private sector, as well as academics and the media, to assess defence developments promptly and build their own data analysis queries. Objective developed the new defence budget forecast tool, which is an exciting addition to the Military Balance+ and is the first to use an econometric algorithm to consider up to 45 variables simultaneously to determine a 15-year outlook.

Objective took the time to talk us through options and the best ways to deliver our reporting needs, which meant we got what we needed in the short term and future proofed our investment going forward.

Objective worked flexibly with us to complete a variety of tasks in Azure, predominantly Data Factory, and with Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. The skilled and friendly consultants worked closely with us to understand our requirements and business needs. The solutions delivered enabled us to improve our ETL process and upskill staff, so they were confident in maintaining it.
