Customers are providing companies with more feedback than ever before, and it represents a valuable source of data which can be used to improve the customer experience.

To improve customer experiences, brands are increasingly turning to data to give them insights and direction. Some of the benefits include helping brands personalize the customer experience. This creates a more enjoyable and memorable moment for customers. In return, they can become repeat customers. Plus, they may tell others about their (hopefully) great experience.
