SPSS predictive analytics software provides us with the means to help deliver on that promise. With SPSS, we can better understand who our customers are, what they want and how we can best serve them. We're obviously thrilled with the return on this technological investment. Customers should be pleased, as well, as they're the real beneficiaries at the end of the day."
