Is a Customer Data Platform right for your company?

According to Tom Quinn, Founder of Refined Path, there are more than 50 tech providers that claim to be Customer Data Platforms or CDPs.

1. Your strategy uses omnichannel personalization beyond advertising.

3. Your analytics strategy needs to support a single customer view (unified, holistic, aggregated representation of your data).
4. You need a platform that requires compliance with GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation).
