Reviews given directly by the clients behind the case studies above, collected through Clutch.
Data Understood have superb project management. Work is delivered on time and in addition, scope and output is checked multiple times during the process ensuring that the end goal is always of the highest quality.
Data Understood were very experienced in working with imperfect data setups. They not only advised on data services but also drew on real-life experiences to support the team beyond this, including data definitions. They provided costed structure and solutions to create an ongoing, credible data management capability.
Data Understood were open and always available. They delivered exactly as per scope and were flexible in the face of environmental challenges. What stood out was the sense of partnership - it never felt like a purely transactional relationship.
The empathetic, supportive approach really stood out. Data Understood were quick to understand what we were trying to achieve and patient in helping us get there. Everything was delivered on time and presented in a way that made sense to our whole team.
Data Understood's project management has been excellent.
