NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Insider, one platform for building individualized, cross-channel customer experiences, today announced it has been named as a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Omni-Channel Marketing Platforms for B2C Enterprises 2023 Vendor Assessment (doc #US49727423, August 2023).

In fact, a group of disruptors led by platforms like Insider are either at or above technical parity with the conventional solutions."

Hande Cilingir, Co-Founder and CEO at Insider, said, "Most marketers dream of being able to deliver a unique experience per person that is personalized and connected across channels. Unfortunately, most brands fail to deliver on this promise because of the inability to activate customer data that is locked in siloes or because the very tech stack that should support them does the opposite - it hinders them. Whether this is because marketers are reliant on single-point solutions or they have put their trust in the well-known cloud players that promise the world but ultimately cannot deliver. At Insider, our mission is to develop industry-first solutions that anticipate and solve marketers' biggest frustrations and challenges before they arise. We've recently launched Sirius AI™ — the world's most comprehensive Generative AI solution for customer experience to help marketing teams achieve higher productivity and efficiency. By removing common roadblocks and putting daily time-consuming tasks, including segment discovery, message creation, and journey orchestration, on autopilot, our vision is to help marketers focus on strategy and high-leverage work to help brands achieve new levels of growth."
