  • Why pricing analytics and price optimization should be viewed as being two radically different technologies.
  • How analytics and optimization technologies compare on six operational aspects you'll never hear about elsewhere.
  • Why Total Cost of Ownership comparisons between these technologies could lead you to draw wrong conclusions.
  • What you need to consider about your objectives and available resources in order to make the best decision.
