10 years of strategic insights

2014 saw the global launch of SciVal, combining the best parts of SciVal Spotlight and SciVal Strata into a product that, a decade later, is used by thousands of university professionals around the world.

In our customer's words

One thing that kept coming back, was the impact our Customer Consultants had on our customers, delivering training and guidance on SciVal and its underlying data and metrics.

I remember a series of seminars at one of our departments, where Zsofi Buttel (a SciVal Customer Consultant), was doing part of the teaching in the seminars. We had seminars like 'Boost your researcher profile' and sessions more directed to research groups where SciVal was a part. I think these seminars made a very positive impact at the way we work with these fields at Aalborg University.

My first experience of SciVal was a very intense full day, one on one training session with Matt Walker (a SciVal Customer Consultant), when I started as the Universityโ€™s first Research Publications Adviser in early 2016. I remember leaving the training absolutely exhausted, but rather excited by the possibilities of SciVal.ย 

At one event in Amsterdam, I presented on how to onboard SciVal at your institution. The talk went well, but the locker holding my passport and bag wouldnโ€™t openโ€” the staff at the venue had to hacksaw their way into the brand-new museum locker to open it. This was only an hour or so before my flight check in time and was rather stressful! It didnโ€™t put me off using SciVal though.

"As a product, SciVal is extremely fortunate to have a vibrant, intelligent and engaged customer base. Without you, SciVal would not be the product it is today. You have collaborated with us, tested, presented, critiqued and ultimately helped us shape SciVal into the solution that helps you provide strategic insights, to help your university's research programs thrive. And for that, we are thankful!"

A decade of change

As youโ€™ve probably noticed, SciVal does not sit still! We are in the middle of expanding the data and metrics available for analysis, along with the providing even more flexibility โ€” all of which youโ€™ll see in SciVal over the course of 2024 and beyond.

SciVal dashboard from 2014 vs. 2024

Weโ€™ve recently moved away from the modular design to a new information architectureย ์ƒˆ ํƒญ/์ฐฝ์—์„œ ์—ด๊ธฐ, making it easier to navigate and discover functionality in SciVal.

SciVal topic map change over time

The competency maps, which uncovered areas of strength for an institution, were replaced with the Topic maps in 2017. This year, weโ€™re updating Topics with an improved mapping algorithm!ย ์ƒˆ ํƒญ/์ฐฝ์—์„œ ์—ด๊ธฐ

SciVal Benchmarking comparison

Itโ€™s also nice to see that some design patterns have grown, expanded and been refined, but not changed drastically since the original designs in 2014. Benchmarking is a good example of this.

Highlights

In the past 10 years, we've exceeded our expectations with SciVal. We hope we've exceeded yours, too. Take a look at how we've grown in a decade, thanks to your support!

Changes in SciVal over the last decade

From the team

Over the past 10 years there have been a number of you lovely customers, who have liked SciVal so much that you have become Elsevier colleagues. They have gone on to share their SciVal expertise with peer institutions as Customer Consultants. We asked a few about the transition to celebrate this special milestone.

"Two modules were built first. Overview and Benchmarking. Overview was then called SPS, which stood for Strategy and Performance Summary. Iโ€™m glad we settled on Overview instead!"
