Web Analytics Consulting Leader, Semphonic, and Online Customer Intelligence Provider, Celebrus, Unveil New White Paper to Help Organisations Optimise Their Web Analytics Strategy
NEWBURY, England, March 26, 2012/PRNewswire/ --
- Findings discuss the state of digital measurement systems and limitations
of existing solutions -
Celebrus Technologies [http://www.celebrus.com ], the online customer intelligence
[http://www.celebrus.com/productindex.aspx ] provider, and web analytics consulting
[http://www.celebrus.com/media/news/semphonicwhitepaper.aspx ] global leader, Semphonic
[http://www.semphonic.com ], the global leader in Digital Measurement and Web Analytics,
have together unveiled a new white paper - The Future of Digital Measurement and
Personalization to help organisations to devise and maintain their web analytics strategy
[http://www.celebrus.com/media/news/semphonicwhitepaper.aspx ].
The white paper, written by Gary Angel, President of Semphonic, the web analytics
consulting global leader, highlights the rapid changes being experienced within digital
measurement and analytics at the enterprise level. Within the past year, the industry
itself has seen the rapid adoption and the evolution of tag management systems, the
re-platforming of most major web analytics solutions plus, perhaps most significantly, the
widespread use of advanced warehousing platforms to integrate and analyse digital data.
Yet even with these changes there are still major challenges with data governance,
robust data collection, data models and real-time data collection.
The white paper explores why most web analytics solutions do not meet these challenges
and are unable to deliver the capabilities necessary for many forms of advanced analysis.
For example, predictive modelling, data driven segmentation, regression and correlation
are unavailable in the off-the-shelf web analytics tools. Even more significantly is the
widespread desire to use digital data to drive customer conversations in real-time -
currently this is impossible with web analytics data due to the latency in data
availability and lack of all the individual-level data required.
The recently-announced web analytics strategy partnership between online customer
intelligence provider, Celebrus Technologies, and Semphonic ensures that Celebrus will be
one of the key technologies that Semphonic's consultants will have available to recommend
when assessing a client's digital and analytical requirements. Celebrus' unique tag-free
software collects data on individual visitors' interactions with a client's online
channels, including websites, mobile applications, Facebook, and YouTube, and from this
data builds individual profiles of the users. The preferences include highly granular,
detailed data, including on-site behaviour, preferences and frequency of visit.
Katharine Hulls, VP Marketing at Celebrus Technologies, comments, "The white paper
highlights important points for the modern marketer and data manager - primarily the
importance of the online customer intelligence that can be readily gathered and made
available throughout an organisation, and the broad utility that that data has. The
granular detail of the data which can be extracted from online activities can bring huge
benefits to those enterprises with an extensive online presence, especially when used to
drive real-time communications."
Gary Angel, President and CTO of web analytics consulting global leader Semphonic,
concludes, "This white paper provides a different perspective on trends in digital
marketing which we are hopeful will result in new emphases in the area of enterprise
measurement and digital big-data analytics. Across the globe there is a growing
appreciation of the benefits of real-time personalisation as part of an organisation's web
analytics strategy. However, there is still some way to go before this thinking becomes
mainstream."
Angel concludes, "We are hoping that with the white paper, we can educate the market
and accelerate the growth of an important new era in digital marketing. The joint launch
of the white paper strengthens the message that the partnership between Celebrus and
Semphonic is hugely significant in digital measurement and web analysis. We are excited by
the partnership and know that the white paper will bring truly insightful value to those
organisations that are looking to excel in digital marketing."
