The telecommunication and
banking industries are a good example of
how vital customer knowledge is to compete more effectively and nurture
customer loyalty. Business users and decision makers are constantly
facing the need to answer fundamental business questions, such as “who
are our most profitable customers”, “what makes them profitable”, and
“which marketing campaigns should be developed to target this segment”.
However, the intelligence required to answer this type of questions is
spread across several operational databases (Billing, Mediation,
Provisioning, CRM, ERP etc.) that do not support the ability to query,
report and analyze business data.
