SAS® for Customer Experience Analytics redefines Web analysis Market

New offering links online and off-line customer data with world class business intelligence technology to deliver new levels of actionable insight for multi-channel organisations

1st February 2007 - SAS, the market leader in the new generation of business intelligence (BI) software and services, has announced the UK launch of SAS® for Customer Experience Analytics. SAS UK’s latest offering will take organisations beyond the narrow focus of traditional web analytics, enabling them to respond intelligently to each and every customer interaction and drive more profitable connections. SAS UK has teamed up with web data collection specialist, Speed-Trap, to develop and launch the new offering.

SAS for Customer Experience Analytics captures and measures, in real time, all aspects of each individual customer’s online and off-line experience, translating these actions into customer insights. By integrating intelligence from all customer touch points, it provides a single source of highly accurate and actionable data that reflects the customer’s experience and the individual’s behaviour, enabling organisations to tailor all customer contacts, optimising value at every point.

The new offering was developed using patented Dynamic Collection™ technology from Speed-Trap. This unique high performance data collection system has been built into SAS’ existing Enterprise Intelligence Platform to create SAS for Customer Experience Analytics.

Organisations using the new customer experience offering can collect multi-channel data to predict future behaviour and build more predictive customer profiles through precise identification of trends in customer preferences, site orientation and content. The real-time data capture engine monitors interaction changes as they happen online, so organisations can be immediately responsive. Recent trials of the software have shown that the new offering can be deployed within one week, with results being generated hours after implementation, from which organisations can rapidly create data driven actions and campaigns, delivering immediate ROI to the business.

Bill Brindle, Chairman and CEO of Speed-Trap, describes the partnership with SAS UK; “Ultimately, our goal is to help organisations understand every aspect of their customer’s interaction with their online and off-line channels. The reaction we have received from the customers we have approached with this new offering reinforces our belief that traditional web analytics solutions with their technology driven perspectives, limited data accuracy, and lack of enterprise-quality BI capabilities have reached the end of the road. True multi-channel BI solutions that are focused on the customer experience and the business objectives of the organisation reflect the shape of the successful, modern, on-line enterprise.”

John Dalton, Managing Director of SAS UK and Ireland added, “In depth understanding of all customer touch points has become a fundamental element in gaining customer insight and SAS is proud to offer a unique solution to help organisations achieve this. SAS has been working with Speed-Trap for four years now and is delighted to offer SAS for Customer Experience Analytics to allow UK organisations to build highly accurate and reflective pictures of their customer base.”
