A Decade of Partnership: Grey Matter and HERE Technologies
News|by Gabrielle Alvear|13 August 2024

Over the past ten years, Grey Matter and HERE Technologies have forged a strong and collaborative partnership. We have been a global distributor with HERE Technologies since 2013 and have seen how our joint efforts have transformed the way businesses and individuals navigate the world (literally).
In this blog, we delve into the milestones, shared successes and what’s it like working with HERE and how the developments that define this partnership can benefit your projects and developer teams.
What is it like working with HERE Technologies
Throughout these years, we’ve received constant support from HERE. We collaborate on events, marketing campaigns, and benefit from a dedicated partner account manager to help us provide expert support for our customers.
We’ve been able to start our “HERE to Help” initiative at Grey Matter thanks to their support. This program is our value-add pre-sales consultation with customers where we connect them with a HERE technical expert to answer any specific queries related to their projects. This has helped us to better advise our customers alongside a HERE expert and help them evaluate the right solutions for their unique projects.
Our long-standing working relationship has enabled us to set in place communication channels to raise and address any discussion points, putting in place successful processes to facilitate a smooth and straightforward purchasing process.
Where we find the greatest value in partnering with HERE Technologies
Our decision to partner with HERE Technologies was driven by our customers’ need for a Mobile Asset Management solution. We recognized that HERE was a great fit for their requirements, and the partnership has been incredibly valuable to our customers.
In terms of where we find the greatest value in partnering with HERE:
- HERE allows us to take the consultative approach with our customers. Rather than just selling the product they think they need for the applications; we can offer solutions tailored to their specific needs based on functionality, price point, and support requirements to ensure they receive the best possible solution.
- There’s also great technology alignment within our tech stack. We appreciate that HERE ensures we have the right technologies to meet our customers’ exact needs. This alignment enhances our ability to deliver value to our customers.
- Speaking of our tech stack, the availability of HERE Content, with its diverse range of licensing types at various price points, has been a great offering to customers and another way we can win business.
All this to say, our partnership with HERE has been a strategic choice, resulting in successful collaborations, synergies and satisfied customers.
Benefits of our partnership and how Grey Matter helps customers succeed with HERE Technologies
One of the biggest benefits is the flexibility to cater to both large enterprise businesses and SMBs; we can tailor HERE product licenses and services to their unique requirements. Our partnership with HERE provides the flexibility needed to serve a wide range of businesses, and our commitment to customer success ensures that they get maximum value from their HERE investment.
Our dedicated mapping team works closely with HERE to ensure that our clients receive personalized solutions. We take a consultative approach, understanding each client’s unique challenges and goals.
Our commitment extends beyond implementation. We actively support our clients throughout their journey with HERE.
We’re not just distributors, we’re mapping experts and advisors, helping our clients solve real-world challenges with HERE Technologies.
