About The Customer
EverQuote, Inc. operates the leading online auto insurance marketplace in the U.S. The company’s proprietary data and technology platform unites agents and carriers with prospective customers in a seamless online experience that delivers great rates and coverage for consumers while maximizing sales rates for auto insurance providers. The EverQuote marketplace has grown into a leading online auto insurance market in the United States, and with 131 employees to date, EverQuote is growing at a steady pace.
The Challenge
Hiring quality team members at an expanding company is always a challenge, but without a good applicant tracking system (ATS) to support recruiting efforts, pinpointing top talent was even more difficult. Recruiters faced stagnation and frustration in the hiring process, making bringing in new candidates slow and tedious. EverQuote soon realized that, if their company was going to grow at a faster clip, it was time to optimize hiring.
The Solution
In 2013 EverQuote began the search for an official recruiting solution and, after test-driving several different platforms, EverQuote selected Jobvite Hire as their partner in talent acquisition. Soon after the implementation of Jobvite, employees in charge of recruiting saw a noticeable upgrade in the quality of their processes. With Jobvite’s intuitive and customizable workflow, sophisticated recruiting metrics and smooth interview scheduling capabilities, EverQuote was able to take their recruiting efforts to a whole new level. Key in helping EverQuote revamp their recruitment program, Planeta says, was the fact that, “Jobvite allowed us to centralize everything; we finally had one location that contained all the information we needed for any given candidate.” This centralization also significantly cut through the clutter of the old system — hiring managers discovered that some candidates who were applying currently had sent in applications before, which prompted them to immediately reach out to any previously glossed over candidates. Scheduling was also made much easier, as all of it took place within the Jobvite system, saving time and allowing the hiring team to prevent any scheduling conflicts from arising ahead of time.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
