Written by Steven Perry | Tue, Jul 31, 2018 @ 11:07 AM

In the recent Forrester Wave™: Customer Analytics Solutions Q2, 2018 report, IBM was recognized as a leader based on  IBM’s Watson Customer Experience Analytics (CXA) and Watson Marketing Insights (WMI). Scoring high overall in a 39-criteria evaluation in the areas of business impact, time to value as well as product investment and vision.

The evaluation included 9 customer analytics solution vendors who provide a comprehensive customer analytics platform which offer DIFM (“do- it-for-me”- business user friendly) and out of the box capabilities. According to the report, as demand for easy and instant access to customer insights among many professionals has increased so has the market for DIFM customer analytics solutions. Due to lack of IT and data science resources within many organizations, this new class of customer analytics solutions has surfaced allowing non-technical business users to leverage the insights needed to make better business decisions.

Watson CXA outperforms in Journey and Struggle Analytics 

Watson CXA distanced itself from the competition by excelling in Journey Analytics and Struggle Analytics in the Forrester evaluation.  Both offer a greater visibility into customers' behavior resulting in outstanding digital customer experiences by leveraging an infusion of Watson AI technology.

  • Journey Analytics provides a cross channel and multi-session customer view to help visualize the complete journeys customers take and assist with identifying the top-performing or popular paths that lead to conversion, offering actionable insight that can be used to replicate positive customer experiences.

 

  • Struggle Analytics recognizes potential struggle activity, such as step counts, repetitive patterns, or slow load times for pages. In addition, it allows you to drill deeper with session analysis to view individual customer experiences and readily determine the cause of customer struggle.
