In response, leading businesses are turning to digital platforms, which not only unify data to provide greater intelligence to customers, employees, and partners but also enable connections to enterprise applications and access to cutting-edge analytics and development tools.

The reason, he says, is their ability to help organizations deliver unique and differentiated experiences by infusing intelligence in all front- to back-office business processes, based on data and insights. “Experiences are more memorable than services, products, or paychecks,” Kremer says. “Experiences create differentiation in the hearts and minds of customers, business partners, employees, candidates, and influencers.”
