After doing a lot of research, CatMan Solution came up as one of the better products. It´s not the cheapest solution, but in my opinion by far the best and most user friendly. It speeds up a lot of the processes that we’d manually have to do. It saves us a lot of time. I would recommend CatMan Solution through its ease of use with predefined reports that are easy to export to excel and power point if needed. Also on boarding a new sales consultant to the tool goes really quick and they become self-reliant in analysing opportunities on their district and stores within an hour. On the whole, the experience has been very good.

“Prior to using CatMan Solution we knew we had issues to address at store level, but we didn’t know what they were or how we could deal with them. It was a huge step forward when we realized it was much more effective to base our sales strategies on real-time data rather than on assumptions. With CatMan Solution our sales rep quickly gets an overview of how our categories are performing in the single stores and on this basis they can take initiatives. With an extensive sales force, it is important to have easy access to core information that makes it possible to optimize sales and take action, where it´s most beneficial. With CatMan Solution we have found a partner that helps us perform better everyday.”

CatMan Solution has changed the way we operate and report on our business. Now we are able to identify opportunities and react immediately if necessary to positively impact the business. We previously lacked the ability to consolidate and structure our POS data from our retailers for sound business decision making. With CatMan Solution we now have a set up that enables us to optimize sales all the way down to store level. The way of working has improved tremendously and it wouldn´t have been possible without CatMan Solution.

Tjek developed a unique data model for Shopping Insights

With the help of CatMan Solution Tjek launched in 2020 “Insights by Tjek”. Tjek Insights is a Power BI service developed by CatMan Solution to help retailers and brands improve their marketing spend across channels, their campaigns, and much more. It’s being used by some of the largest brands in the world like Nestlé, Kellogg’s, Dr. Oetker and Colgate. Data comes from consumer apps that connect retailers with consumers around price deals and promotions. The consumer can browse promotions or search for a specific product or brands. The retailers learn about this and can then act accordingly. Tjek Insights is based on anonymous and clustered data from Tjek’s shopping apps. It doesn’t track people and can measure activity completely anonymous.

Everyone in the field uses Store Pictures.

It is an important tool when we need to convince the stores of the importance of the effort we make for them. We also use Store Pictures as a crucial tool for documentation to our partners. The fact that they have direct access to see ‘live updates’ of pictures in the store is an important parameter.

Niels Rasmussen, Head of Field Sales, Retail & Food Service @ Conaxess Trade

Great credit to the entire CatMan team.

We have just received our CatMan Next solution, and I have been very satisfied with the service we have received from the beginning to the final implementation. Our contact at CatMan has been both competent and very service-minded. Everyone at CatMan has just been ‘there’ when needed. It’s great to experience an IT collaboration partner that understands the customer’s challenges like CatMan.

Katrine Palmdahl Bek, Business Development Manager @ Essity

Often, when you need a new system, there is ‘resistance to change.’ CatMan’s understanding of our challenges has meant that we have almost avoided it this time. It has been very easy to switch from the old supplier to CatMan – great credit to the entire CatMan team.
