Who is MarketWide for?

DSI clients include Fortune 500 companies, government agencies and numerous other companies and marketing agencies representing a variety of industries. Our platform works equally well for B2B, B2C and business-to-household marketing.


To take full advantage of the software’s features, a decent-sized customer database is needed. Our customers’ databases range from a hundred thousand to several billion entries, just to give you the range. There is no need to build a separate database or tweak yours, because MarketWide is flexible enough to work with what you have.

How MarketWide Works

MarketWide works with a range of databases and servers, including Oracle and SQL. It consists of three components:
  • The MarketWide client, which runs on each end user computer and handles user interface.
  • The MarketWide host, which runs on a server, interacts with one or more databases, and syncs with all connected clients.
  • A database, which is not a part of MarketWide but contains the data MarketWide needs for queries and campaigns.
In technical jargon, MarketWide is known as an “n-tier” system, because it’s equally comfortable running on a single computer versus one or more clients, one or more servers, and one or more databases. The most common configuration has 2-3 client machines communicating with a single MarketWide host, which connects to a single database. MarketWide’s flexibility allows you to access your database from anywhere you have an internet connection. It also makes it easier to share work between team members, because all progress is saved and synced between devices automatically.


As for its inner workings, MarketWide’s search engine is based on DSI proprietary technology that processes millions – or even billions – of records and applies multiple search conditions in a single pass of the database. As a result, most MarketWide calculations take seconds or minutes instead of hours or days, enabling you to react to market conditions sooner and saving valuable time.

How Does MarketWide Differ from Other Campaign Management Systems?

While there are many fine marketing tools out there, here are a few things a few things that set MarketWide apart:


Able to Use Your Existing Database
You can install MarketWide on your own network and connect it directly to YOUR marketing database.* If you already have a database, this can be done in less than a day.
Supports Huge Campaigns
MarketWide uses a SQL-optimizing segmentation engine that supports thousands of segments while making only one pass of your database.
Doesn’t Need Pre-Aggregated Data
MarketWide supports transactional data, and its segmentation engine aggregates it for you automatically, saving you time and energy. For example, to select consumers who placed a certain number of orders in the last 12 months, you’ll create a something called an “aggregate.” Once created, you simply use it in your query just like any other field.
Incremental Compilation
Whew – what a mouthful! What does this mean, and why is it a big deal? Well, when MarketWide campaigns are launched, a custom program is automatically created, compiled, and executed on the server. To do what?? Combined with its one-pass segmentation engine and aggregate processing, Incremental Compilation is the secret behind MarketWide’s incredible performance.
* Supported platforms: SQL Server and Oracle
