Tue, October 20, 2009 Webtrends: Webtrends and Teradata Integration Helps Marketers Measure Online and Offline Data
PORTLAND, OR and WASHINGTON, DC--(Marketwire - October 20, 2009) - [ Webtrends ], an enterprise customer intelligence company with [ Teradata Corporation ] (
By integrating Webtrends' customer intelligence solution with Teradata's Integrated Web Intelligence (IWI) solution, marketers can drive revenue across multiple channels, reduce overall cost and improve satisfaction across their customer base.
The customers who visit a company's website also call support lines, receive direct mailings and catalogs and chat about organizations through blogs, social networks and other new media tools. In order to build lasting and profitable relationships with these customers, marketers need to connect burgeoning data systems that work together to connect the data systems that independently manage these online and offline interactions. The Webtrends and Teradata integration helps enterprises eliminate the data silos throughout an organization.
"We live and breathe the online data that business leaders strive to first measure and then take action against," said Alex Yoder, CEO, Webtrends. "But that isn't enough. In today's multichannel operations, marketing campaigns affect consumer purchasing decisions made from both online and offline activity. There is a constant need to optimize and measure these campaigns and analyzing this collective data is paramount."
"The insight gained by leveraging Webtrends highly enriched online data with Teradata's Integrated Web Intelligence solution enables companies to improve conversion rates by increasing the relevance of offers and promotions across online and traditional offline channels. With this advanced insight, marketers can also devise strategies for migrating customers from high cost to low cost channels," said David Grant, vice president of global industry solutions, Teradata Corporation.
A July 2009 report from Forrester Research titled [ "The Multichannel Consumer" ] stated, "Seventy percent of US online consumers research products online and purchase them offline."
This statistic speaks directly to need for an integration partnership between Webtrends and Teradata. Webtrends has the ability to give customers free access to its data through its open API as well as seamless integration with Teradata's IWI solution via the Teradata [ Open Exchange ] partnering network.
Specific benefits of the Webtrends and Teradata integration include:
Increase conversions, revenues: Understand the true drivers of campaign conversion and the interplay between online and offline sales, rather than relying on isolated events or dislocated indicators. Use this insight to take advantage of cross-sell and up-sell opportunities on different channels, as well as improve the timeliness and relevance of offers, both online and offline.
Reduce marketing costs: Optimize the allocation of marketing resources based on congruent comparisons of performance across channels. Data integration makes it possible to apply traditional customer relationship management fundamentals to online channels, along with traditional offline ones.
Improve customer satisfaction: Build stronger customer relationships by customizing offline correspondence based on their online preferences and behaviors. Identify and target "high value" customers across channels, and use online customer churn patterns to improve online and offline retention.
Leverage customer insight: Go beyond traditional "transactions/purchase" behavior to truly understand customer intent and engagement with your company to drive loyalty, retention and revenue.
