What is Customer 360?

Single View of a Customer. An Intelligent Solution for Data-Driven Customer Experience

A Customer 360 data model describes a holistic 360-degree view of customers through data

This strategy aims to aggregate and break down data silos to create a single, centralised perspective of each and every customer. 

Many organisations use the Customer 360 approach to deeply understand their customers. A single 360 customer journey will have data concerning an individual customer’s interactions, preferences, behaviours, and history across various touchpoints and channels within a company. This lets them deliver personalised and relevant experiences, improve customer satisfaction, and drive business growth.

With a Customer 360 view, organisations can better analyse and understand their individual customer needs to anticipate their expectations, tailor products and services, and run more accurate targeted marketing campaigns. 

Gain deeper and more holistic Customer Insights

Customer 360 also known as Single View of a Customer is a Data Integration process for implementing a Customer Experience solution.

The Data Integration component for Customer 360 provides a comprehensive and unified view of each customer following them across all interactions with touchpoints, channels and engagement with the organisation.

It allows decision-makers to holistically understand their customers as individuals: their preferences, behaviours, and history. Through this deeper understanding, organisations can create targeted strategies that resonate with their customers and help increase loyalty, and retention, and drive further business growth and success.

This is through what customers crave most out of a brand they are loyal to creating highly personalised and relevant experiences.
