Client Quotes
“Inspherion provides really good, comprehensive landscapes.”
“Inspherion handled the process in a very disciplined way and we felt that senior management time was not wasted. It was time well spent.”
“Inspherion really impressed us. They are very credible.”
“Inspherion has one of the most intriguing products. It's not just Boolean or patent counts. They do a very nice job in terms of outputs, granularity, and the number of ways the information can be displayed.”
“I was amazed that without prior knowledge of our market or business, Inspherion was able to correctly identify our situation in 2 weeks while our business development team has taken over a year to come to the same conclusions.”
“I hired Inspherion to provide intellectual property analysis while I managed a Patent Estate at a Fortune 50 company division. Their insight and landscape of the patent activity opened our eyes to specific blind spots that would have been risky if not pointed out. Inspherion's product will provide a company a competitive advantage and I have used and recommended their service regularly since.”
