  • SAP Customer Identity:

By ensuring that the data provided by users over the network is always safe, SAP Customer Identity assists us in securing the information of our customers. We no longer need to make new accounts. We can achieve this very easily by using single sign-on and logout or secure registration forms.

No matter on what devices they are using, we can engage our clients through various communication channels.

We can capture important user data with the use of customer identity, securely store that data, and use it to improve the customer experience. Launch individualized marketing campaigns, offer customer support, and establish a connection built on trust with the users by using customer identity as the pivot point.

  • SAP Customer Consent:

Managing user privacy, preferences, and consent in a way that is transparent to the user is made easier with SAP Customer Consent.

With this solution, businesses can adhere to the law without consent since the data is gathered and secured with privacy concerns complying with new European rules like GDPR.

Our clients can see, freeze, or even delete their data as a result, and we are completely honest with them throughout the process. Building trust and loyalty among your customers is made easier with the aid of SAP Customer Consent.

  • Customer Profile:

When we employ Customer Identity or Customer Consent, we collect a layer of user profile data called SAP Customer Profile. Within the SAP Customer Data Cloud administration Console, it serves as a single point of management for our website and its users.

Using this application, we can compile all the information into a single consumer profile and create intricate 360° views.

What are the business benefits delivered?

  • Hyper-personalized online and in-store experiences across all touch points can increase client lifetime value.
  • Using CIAM technologies, you may turn unknown online users into recognizable, devoted consumers.
  • Optimize B2B value networks by reducing risks, accelerating time to market, and streamlining identity lifecycle management.
  • With business consent and preference management, you can increase trust while adhering to GDPR, CCPA, and other data privacy laws.
  • Possesses a platform for “clean” follow-up procedures. These follow-up procedures can provide opportunities and the potential to persuade clients to willingly provide more data to the business.

To Conclude,

In the real world, we frequently log in as anonymous visitors and peruse product view details on websites, download a few product information, or add something to a shopping basket without disclosing our identity. With SAP Customer Data Cloud, we can more quickly identify those customers and get to know them in order to convert them into loyal customers.

SAP’s customer data management solution will help businesses turn into real customer-first enterprises by enhancing and personalizing our customers’ journeys while respecting their choices and privacy.
