Adobe Analytics Implementation

Adobe Analytics works by separating the data flow into rich streams that enable businesses to identify high-value segments across all marketing channels. It can be an elegant solution to complex problems, but its architecture is equally complex, requiring not only advanced technical knowledge but real-world experience in its application. Stacked Analytics has both, and we provide a suite of customized approaches to harness Adobe’s intelligence.

  • Demo support

We understand the sensitive nature of your deal dynamics and client interactions. And we have a process to promote a seamless customer experience from licensing through implementation.

Strategy Matters

This is where an objective 3rd party can be the difference maker in your deal.

How: A clients main hesitation towards technology investments has to do with value realization. Some might call it ROI, but it has been our experience it is not so much about the ROI as it is how this technolgy will enhance, equip, and improve the daily operations of the team using the tool. This is where experts in this space can be a life saver and really add the value you need to close your next deal and help your client.

There is a lot that goes into this process and when the same team selling the technology is also communicating the value realization in a silo it makes it hard to ensure you win. Staked Analytics has the team to ensure you are fully prepared and we have led large scale digital transformation projects leveraging the entire Adobe tech stack. We focus in Adobe Analytics, but we understand the entire customer journey and how it interacts with all of Adobe products.

When to connect with Implementation Partner

Choosing an implementation partner is a key step and there are multiple approaches. As an Adobe Analytics and Target seller you already know that the client has two types of investments to make when considering Adobe as their technology partner.

  • The first investment is the license terms and conditions (which you are the expert in handling)

  • The second investment is the implementation needed to leverage the tool and ensure high adoption and overall utilization. This is necessary to build the  environment and momentum for customers to expand their  Adobe technology footprint as well as creating a great customer experience.

    We want you to win and we offer decades of Adobe winning experience! We recommend talking through your deal  as soon as possible so we can help you close the licensing with industry specific expertise and provide a clear understanding of the investment the client will need in the implementation phase. All of this will give you an advantage in closing more deals.

Naturally, discussing your client’s contextual needs and verifying which option is best suited will give you the most reliable information to support the overall approach.

What our clients are saying...

“Partnering with Stacked Analytics has been an incredibly productive and, even, fun experience. They understood our goals and quickly picked up on the nuance and uniqueness of our business rather than treating us like a cookie cutter project. They helped us build a strategy and, without missing a beat, elegantly implemented a dynamic machine learning powered content system. They are kind, smart, take the time to get to know us as people, and, bluntly, they really know their shit.”

- Jason Tabeling, CEO, AirTank

“Our new Customer Experience Director is floored by the new metrics. He is super excited to see agency efficiency metrics and can now categorize questions that come in to identify trends, some of which can be corrected, ultimately reducing impact to the customer experience team going forward. By asking our returns portal to do XYZ, we can reduce these types of questions by changing our internal processes. This is a total game changer.”
