Growth of Personal Data
This richness of big data provides an enormous potential to personalize services - yet
customers still marvel at how little their service provider seem to know them
The volume of personal data is
growing exponentially & at a
staggering rate to the actual
number of subscribers

Unleash the power of real time personalization
Despite the vast amount of customer data that exists, marketing continues to rely on traditional
segmentation schemas and static profile attributes that provide an incomplete view of the customer
• Traditional BI systems, data warehouses and CRM systems are ill-equipped to support dynamic customer profiling
• Operators know they are not reaching certain groups of people, and may not even identify a “category” before it is too late
• Legacy systems are not designed to deal with the volume, variety, velocity and volatility of big data to deliver value, relevance and immediate responses to market needs
