What Is CDP Customer Data Management and How Does It Work?

How does Sitefinity Insight create unified customer profiles?

Sitefinity Insight integrates data from multiple systems to recognize and connect customer information across different sources. This enables the creation of unified customer profiles that reflect complete behavioral and interaction histories.

What types of customer interactions are tracked in the CDP?

The Customer Data Platform tracks a wide range of interactions, including:

  • Website form visits
  • Form submissions
  • File downloads
  • Search queries
  • User registrations
  • Video plays
  • Content views

Sitefinity Insight also supports custom server-side tracking through a .NET SDK, expanding tracking capabilities to suit specific business needs.

Can contact properties within a profile be customized?

Yes, Sitefinity Insight allows for the creation of custom contact properties. Businesses can tailor contact profiles to include the most relevant data, supporting personalized marketing and enhanced segmentation strategies.

How are contact profiles updated in real time?

Contact profiles are continuously updated as users interact with your digital assets. For example, downloading a resource or completing a form immediately updates the profile. This real-time update capability supports timely personalization and responsive customer engagement.

Can multiple profiles belonging to the same customer be merged?

Yes, the platform can detect and merge multiple profiles associated with the same individual. If a visitor accesses the site from multiple devices and later identifies themselves, Sitefinity Insight consolidates those sessions into a single unified profile.

How is customer data enriched from third-party sources?

Through integration with external systems, Sitefinity Insight can enrich existing profiles with additional customer information. This leads to more complete insights, better personalization and more effective marketing campaigns.

Can the system identify anonymous visitors and associate their activity with known profiles?

Yes, anonymous visitor activity is tracked and can be retroactively associated with a known profile once the visitor provides identifiable information. This helps build a full picture of the customer journey, even before direct engagement.

Is there a limit to the number of contact properties stored in a profile?

There is no specified limit to the number of contact properties you can store in a profile. This flexibility supports detailed customer modeling and comprehensive data collection.
