Good program, but has flaws

What I like most about i9 anywhere is that it can be used on the go for end users. It's fast and easy to use program, easy buttons and sign offs with easy to interface too.

Great tool for prototyping models / analytics with Equifax data

Access to a lot more consumer credit data (in terms of size and types of data) than paying for a data dump at the same budget. It was perfect for us to prototype our ML and risk model (since we had no idea what features would be important). Ignite is built on top of GCP, so we were able to leverage BigQuery and Jupyter Notebook + Spark for quick iterations from the get-go.
