This effectively identifies potential patent infringements or areas for licensing opportunities. A patent holder can gain valuable information from an evidence of use search:

US telecom giant uses Parola Analytics’ customized Evidence of Use search and Standard Essential Patents (SEP) Analysis for patent licensing and monetization.
Parola provided us the key reference
The first search Parola Analytics, Inc. performed for us provided the key reference supporting our invalidity position on a patent we were evaluating.
The work product is top notch!
Vincent Violago and his excellent team at Parola Analytics provide high quality, detailed, prior art search results with minimal oversight and handholding.

The work product is top-notch, and they are always available for follow up, including detailed discussions of the report and additional pinpoint searches based on the results.
Demonstrated deeper understanding of the search
I engaged Parola Analytics to conduct a prior art search on a difficult US patent that had already stymied another search firm that delivered two unusable references. Parola found four much better references in two weeks that demonstrated a deeper understanding of the search and an effective selection of the best references.
