CARY, NC (Dec. 10, 2012) - Facing data that continues to grow in volume, velocity and variety, knowledge workers are embracing SAS® Analytics to find patterns, sentiments and relationships that can transform their companies - opening new growth opportunities, catching fraud faster, and addressing customer needs, often before the customer identifies them. Worldwide, new SAS
data mining software licenses are booming with 28 percent year-over-year growth.
To get answers to complex questions and gain an edge in today's marketplace, industry leaders rely on SAS. For example, many auto makers, including American Honda, Hyundai Motor Company and Shanghai General Motors use SAS to detect emerging quality issues, protect brand value and improve customer satisfaction. SAS is also used at 80 global government entities, the 15 US federal departments and all 50 US state governments. In fact, this year's US Department of Agriculture enterprisewide contract covering SAS Analytics software, services and training over the next five years, extends a 36-year partnership between SAS and USDA.
