phData

phData Premier provider of Big Data managed services and architecture, engineering, and data science consulting. In practice that means managing your IT, from help desk to infrastructure, as an outside partner.

It makes the most sense for small and mid-sized companies. Related areas on their profile: Analytics and Information Services. As a large company team themselves (501 to 1,000 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. At that size expect formal onboarding, documentation and a longer sales cycle.

phData is based in Minneapolis, Minnesota and around since 2014. More on phdata.io.

Things worth asking about: response SLAs, onboarding, and what is billed per hour. Ask for a trial on your own data, not a canned demo.

If you have worked with phData, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
