• Top line revenue growth. Digital customer experience.
• Solutions in this space make up the largest enterprise software category today.
• In the Experience Economy, 80% of customers switch brands due to a poor customer experience. We are in the midst of a customer revolution that has opened its gates to the Experience Economy. No longer can a single technology improve the customer experience but rather a suite of solutions is needed that understands the voice of the customer at every touch point of the customer journey, creates a single view of the customer while protecting data privacy, and delivers on the brand promise in every interaction from marketing to delivery. SAP is leading in this Experience Economy with its SAP C/4HANA suite, an integrated technology suite that brings together customer data management, machine learning, and microservices to power real-time, intelligent customer engagements across sales, customer service, marketing, and commerce, coupled with the eXperience data from Qualtrics. More than 10,000 customers use either one or multiple SAP C/4HANA solutions today, turning away from legacy CRM systems that solely focus on sales force automation. With SAP’s customer experience solutions, customers can build end-to-end journeys designed around the customer across all channels, based on trust and consent.
