Easy Conversion of Big Data into Useful Insights **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Chemicals | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 18, 2022 **What do you like best about Descartes Datamyne?** As a mid-size US-based chemical manufacturing company, Datamyne allows us to keep an eye on competitive products that are being imported by our customers. This allows us a competitive advantage by seeing which of our customers might be bringing in our similar products from overseas. It also allows us to see which products are being imported that we might not be producing but have the capability to. Often our domestic customers want a domestic source of supply. On the flip side, we also look at what types of products are leaving the US. It is always good to know where your competition is sending their material. **What do you dislike about Descartes Datamyne?** As with all data extraction, you do have to weed out some excess, irrelevant information. However, Datamyne does a good job at organizing the data in a way where relevant and irrelevant information is easy to differentiate. **What problems is Descartes Datamyne solving and how is that benefiting you?** Datamyne helps us solve the problem of losing business to overseas suppliers. While a domestic production location is always an advantage, we can lose the business based on lower costs from overseas.
