In addition to what the other posters suggested, take a look at the Solutions page on the website. This lists various industries and applications and what companies are doing with our products in those industries and application areas. There are also the User Stories, where you can look for something like what you want to do and see what products users in academia and industry have used to accomplish those tasks.
