Next Generation, often shortened to NextGen or Next-Gen, is a term used on many buzzword lists. Over recent years it has been widely used to describe a product or technology that has been developed to replace current products or technology – by being new, different, and to an extensive degree better.
To avoid NextGen just being a buzzword, there is a good rule to apply. Make sure to justify the NextGen claim by ensuring that there is a clear description of what the previous generation's technology was, what the new product’s technology is, and how the difference between them provides greater capabilities or cost reductions.
A NextGen business recognize technology as the differentiator and embrace technology to grow the company of tomorrow. To gain a competitive edge in a demanding market requires efficiency, agility, analysis and uncomplicated technological solutions – where cloud technology is paving the way for enterprises to grow their innovative ideas.
Cegal’s vision is to be a stellar NextGen tech company that enables a more sustainable future. What do we mean by NextGen tech company? It is about what is characterizing the most successfull technology companies - and for us, the following three things:

One example is Cegal Blueback Avary, a new product of Cegal, that is built on Cegals NextGen software – Flows, which optimizes efficient use of hardware and enables a paradigm shift in speed and results in quality within the workflow. With Cegal Blueback Avary, you can focus more on the interpretation and evaluation of the data rather than handling and managing countless computational operations and parameterization across multiple applications. In other words, increased effectiveness, speed, and quality of seismic post-stack processing workflows.
