What is a customer experience platform?

CX solutions are increasingly being used to enhance the customer journey and improve the customer experience. But how exactly does this work and will they replace previous CRM systems and marketing technologies (martech)?

A “customer experience platform” is a technology solution that enables companies to measure, manage, and improve digital customer experiences by collecting information about each customer’s interactions with the company, analyzing it, and interpreting the results and responses. There are options for digital customer experience software platforms both on-cloud and on-premise, each with its advantages and disadvantages.

Digital customer experience (CX) software is often compared to customer relationship management (CRM) software, but is a step up in its ability to use customer insights to recommend actionable improvements in the digital customer journey – either at the individual or organizational level.

At the individual level, digital CX software can guide CX transformation by tracking individual customer behavior online and raising red flags in the customer journey wherever possible, using predictive analytics to suggest personalized digital experience solutions to engage customers.

At the organizational level, CX software examines the customer journey to track patterns and identify major problem areas or gaps within the organization that can impact the overall digital customer experience journey, allowing CX professionals to plan and execute internal process transformations for a better customer experience.

With a variety of software platforms offering different feature sets to choose from, it’s a difficult decision for marketers today. Let’s take a look at some key considerations for marketers who need to choose a digital CX software platform.
