Neo4j, the world’s leading graph data platform, announced the availability of the 2021 Forrester Total Economic Impact^TM (TEI) Study, commissioned by Neo4j and conducted independently by Forrester Consulting in 2021.

The TEI Study is based on Forrester’s in-depth interviews with Neo4j customers and provides a quantitative business value justification designed to help IT and data analytics leaders. It demonstrates a composite cost savings and business benefit analysis realized by using Neo4j’s graph data platform in scenarios spanning several different cloud and on premises configurations. The study also provides a model for determining the economic value for any organization considering implementing graph technology.

The TEI Study is based on the experiences of production Neo4j customers, with one theme coming up in much of the feedback: Specifically, that working with Neo4j opened up new possibilities that were not conceivable before. A principal architect at a financial services firm that was part of the Forrester TEI study shared their key insight on the business transformation they experienced by implementing Neo4j:

“It’s just like you’re building an airplane and you said, ‘Oh, I have a great steam engine. Let’s try with that first because that’s what we use everywhere.’ But you need a different thing. So what’s the comparison of steam engines versus jet engines for aircraft? There’s no real comparison.”
