Bear Cognition Announces the Launch of SwaS (Software WITH a Service)
CHARLESTON, S.C., April 11, 2024 (Newswire.com) - Bear Cognition, a leading provider of business intelligence, data analytics, and data management solutions, today announced the launch of its SwaS™ (Software WITH a Service) model. This industry-first approach dismantles the antiquated buy-it-and-figure-it-out software experience, providing clients with expert guidance and support alongside cutting-edge software.
With SwaS™, Bear Cognition's customers not only gain access to powerful software tools but also a high-touch, personalized service experience. The Data Lab, comprised of certified product experts work closely with clients to understand their unique needs, provide comprehensive training, and offer ongoing support every step of the way. This white-glove service from the Data Lab ensures seamless adoption and maximum realization of the software's capabilities.
"There are a lot of data visualization software options on the market. But I've found only one service that comes with a team as part of their product," said, Bobby Young, CEO at Canopy Ad Co. "Bear Cognition solves a pressing dilemma in the digital marketing space - having the internal resources to create custom dashboards for clients and explore innovations in those dashboards in a cost and time efficient way. Bear Cognition provides a team of experts that allows us to build custom reporting dashboards and explore innovations without having to build out an expensive internal team. I'm not sure there is another solution out there that offers the scale that Bear Cognition delivers."

Voice Assistant Users Want ‘Smarter’ Assistants, Voices Report Finds
NEW YORK, March 27, 2024 (Newswire.com) - Today, Voices, the world’s leading voice over marketplace, published Talking Technology, a report analyzing the state of voice assistant usage in Americans, including how people use them, challenges they encounter, and potential improvements they might want to see.
The report found that over 80% of Americans use voice assistants, making them a highly prevalent digital tool. Among voice assistant users, 74% use their voice assistant multiple times per week. The widespread adoption of voice assistants should come as no surprise–from personal computers and smartphones to media consoles to vehicle infotainment systems–almost every piece of personal technology today has voice control functions integrated. But despite many users using voice assistants every day, 46% don’t feel they use their assistants to their fullest potential and leave many features underutilized.
Americans use voice assistants for a wide variety of everyday tasks, the most common being information retrieval, such as checking the weather or asking general questions on various topics (62%), communication with others (45%), playing media (43%), and smart home control (37%).
Other key findings from the report include:
- Voice assistants have become a digital Swiss Army knife: 61% of voice assistant users interact with their voice assistant at least once per day. The most commonly used voice assistants are Alexa (56%), Siri (49%), and Google Assistant (42%).
- Misunderstanding user requests is a big pain point: 60% of voice assistant users say the assistant’s ability to accurately understand their requests is one of their main frustrations.
- Smarter IS better: 45% of users say they’d use voice assistants more if they thought they were “smarter” and could provide better responses.
- Users would enjoy more human-like interactions: 36% would use voice assistants more if the interactions felt more natural and human-like.
- Generative AI could be the revamp voice assistants need: 38% of users believe that a voice assistant that uses generative AI (such as ChaptGPT) would understand requests and inquiries better than their current assistants.
“It’s clear that people want voice technology that doesn’t feel like talking to a robot; they want technology that can actually understand what they’re asking, can respond accordingly, and sounds and feels at least slightly more human in their interactions,” says Tara Parachuk, Senior Manager, Brand Communications. “Companies looking to incorporate voice-activated features into their products should prioritize developing assistants that are actually smart – ones that have a high capacity for understanding natural language and can respond to requests accordingly.
