The CX ecosystem is a broad web of solutions and technologies aimed at smoothing out a customer’s journey from start to finish and providing a personalized and engaging experience. On the provider side, these solutions aim to increase loyalty and satisfaction, optimize revenue, and allow for better targeting and retention. COVID-19 resulted in an abrupt, but sustained move to digital, causing a large increase in the digital customer data stream and a greater focus on housing, analyzing, and interpreting this data. In addition, customers have grown to accept and even look for increased personalization during their customer journey touchpoints, often leveraging this data.
The CX market itself encompasses large players, such as Cisco and Microsoft, as well as smaller companies carving out a niche in areas like personalization or feedback. There are pure play companies included in the ecosystem, but many companies span multiple market segments both within and outside of CX. While the market is well established, there is not a great deal of differentiation among offerings. This dynamic could be a result of the nature of the market itself, with many interdependencies among the functional areas and lots of overlap, making it difficult to create a well-defined offering. Additionally, there has been a great deal of merger and acquisition activity, as companies attempt to deepen offerings or provide a broader CX solution base.
This Dash Research report outlines six segments in the CX ecosystem: customer data & analytics, personalization & optimization, customer insights & feedback, contact center, customer relationship management (CRM), and employee experience (EX). The report provides an overview of the market in general and includes a brief discussion of industry trends in each segment. Dash Research has included profiles on 150 companies in the CX space. There is an additional list of 100 other industry participants included in the report, as well as an Excel-based summary of key facts and figures for the companies.
