SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 10, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DataStax, the leading provider of data management for cloud applications, today revealed the findings of a new commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of Datastax. “The Evolution to Real-Time Customer Experience” study highlights the key role data platforms play in driving customer experiences. In fact, 95% of organizations that have implemented a CX data platform deem their CX strategy a success, compared to just 45% of those who have not. The Forrester report also details the need to move past personalization by segmentation. In order to meet consumer’s needs in real-time, organizations need a data platform that allows them to capture, assess and utilize individual customer behavior in real time.
DataStax also conducted a series of CX Executive Forums and Roundtables around the U.S. and Europe featuring Forrester analysts to explore the urgency and changing nature of market expectations surrounding CX.
