What people say

Trish Macrae @ Nielsen

"I wanted to work with someone who could quickly grasp the nuances of our metadata deployment with a major multinational pay TV operator and who could translate the benefits into something digestible yet compelling for a non-techie audience. It was also important to work with a company with the credibility and professionalism to deal with an important commercial relationship for us. Caretta Research certainly ticked these boxes and they knew what they were talking about when it came to media technology. Rob Ambrose and his team were easy to work with, responsive and communicative and most importantly they delivered what they promised on time."

Robin Kirchhoffer @ Dalet

"We use the data platform, Caretta Portal, to reinforce and accelerate a number of functions in our business particularly around competitive intelligence and identifying market opportunities."

Kelvin Jones @ DPP

“Caretta Research provided us with the data we needed to support our membership acquisition strategy. We also gained key insights into the methodology that enables us to continue similar research internally. It was a beneficial collaboration and we look forward to working with Caretta again in future.”

George Bevir @ IBC

“The IBC team enjoyed working with Rob Ambrose and his colleagues from Caretta Research to produce the workflow tours and webinars over 2021: their industry knowledge and network were crucial in attracting the right guests to appear in the films and in ensuring they were asked the most relevant questions. They were a pleasure to work with, proactive and flexible throughout a long production schedule, and ultimately their efforts helped us attract the sponsors and partners we wanted to work with.”

Merrick Kingston @ Synamedia

"What we like about Caretta Portal is that it's got everything in one place, so I know that if I go into a technology segment or subsegment I am mutually excluding everything else in the industry. I just can't do this with other datasets. It's usable, it's modern."
