Analyst Perspective

“Organizations use customer data in virtually every function of the business, including customer experience, product research, design, development, advertising, marketing, and sales. Today, companies have more data about their customers than ever before. While collecting customer data from various sources is often straightforward, enterprises struggle to integrate, transform, curate, and aggregate it with other master and legacy sources to deliver a comprehensive customer 360-degree view. Solving this problem is why enterprises are adopting and implementing customer data management.” Now Tech: Customer Data Management Solutions, Q1 2020, by Noel Yuhanna, Forrester Research, Inc., Jan 8, 2020


Omer Iqbal, SVP, Global Architecture – Digital COE, Shiseido Group: “The last 15 years have been very exciting in the beauty and luxury space, where brands have gone from competing with each other to competing with retailers and now are competing for customers’ time and attention. The key is to collect customer data, then turn it into knowledge to drive engaging, relevant, and personalized customer experience.”

Ramon Chen, Chief Product Officer, Reltio: “Innovation is essential in a global economy characterized by exponential growth of digital transformation. Our customers are positioned to adapt to radical changes that fundamentally change business models and buyer behavior.

Chas Kielt, Senior Director, Industry Solutions Marketing, Reltio: “Customers expect companies they do business with to be quick, timely, and helpful in the precise moment of interaction. Your ability to make that happen relies on identifying and understanding individual customers to provide well-timed, relevant value across any channel, device, or touchpoints to the consumer. Connected customer data from many sources is required to make this happen. I look forward to exploring this topic with Omer, Noel, and Ramon.”
