We celebrated Elsen’s many achievements – from announcing that Franklin Templeton deployed the Elsen nPlatform near the beginning of the year, to most recently, having Elsen named to the 2019 Benzinga Top Fintech Listmakers – as well as identify areas for growth in the coming new year.
The majority of the Elsen team works out of the company’s headquarters in Boston, but we do have a few colleagues scattered around the world. Our offsite meeting served as a rare opportunity for everyone to come together under one roof that we took full advantage of through team building exercises and game nights. The bulk of our days were spent in strategic planning meetings and different department presentations, and in the evening, we took turns hosting game night. These game nights consisted of traditional games (e.g. Jeopardy and Family Feud) that we made distinctly Elsen by putting our own personal spin on them. For example, Elsen Jeopardy categories included “Elsen nPotpourri” and “Waiter, I Have a Fly in My Data.”
As much fun as game nights were, they were equally educational – from learning about the history of the company, to the top questions being asked by prospects. For example, we learned while playing Elsen Family Feud hosted by two members from Elsen’s Sales team, the most commonly asked questions by prospects. Since so many people have these questions, we thought we’d answer them for you now.
Q: “Does Elsen have API access?”
A: Yes. Users are able to access data directly through an API, and non-technical users can leverage it through intuitive, web-based applications. In both instances, Elsen’s proprietary programming language, Warp, powers analysis up to 50x faster. API access can be through Python, SQL, etc. Therefore, in addition to improving workflows, the actual analysis happens exponentially faster as well.
Q: “How long is the Elsen trial and what is it like?”
A: Elsen free trials are simple and easy. A trial is two weeks in length. We aim to make your proof of concept a breeze, not a headache. The company’s trial process is summarized in the following three bullets.
Q: “How complicated and arduous is the onboarding process?”
A: Everyone has lived through huge IT deployments, database installations and new product onboarding that is anything but effortless, taking hours of internal resourcing and months to get up and running. We’ve solved that problem by providing an onboarding process that’s absolutely effortless as we do all the work.

All in all, our company offsite was a big success. We really enjoyed having facetime with everyone on the team and we left the multi-day event feeling recharged by everyone’s positive energy and high level of engagement. All in all, we left the offsite aligned on the company’s direction headed into the New Year and excited for what’s to come.
