In today's hyper-connected world, social media and online customer interactions are changing the way companies do business from the outside in. Leading brands recognize that their customers are both passionate and vocal about their products and services, and they are sharing their experiences in conversations every day. Until recently, however, social monitoring tools allowed you to listen to these conversations, but lacked the sophisticated analytics capabilities needed to derive critical business insights. Attensity enables you to go beyond mere social media monitoring to: LISTEN to social customer conversations from over 75 million online sources, including the full Twitter Firehose, Facebook, blogs, communities, forums and other sources. ANALYZE those conversations for key business insights, going beyond basic sentiment to get detailed reports on customer feedback about new products, campaigns, brands, service and support, and other business drivers. RELATE that intelligence to structured data within your existing customer systems such as CRM, ERP, BI, EFM and other systems. ACT with a Playbook that allows you to take charge of emerging issues and manage the customer experience based on your own organizational structure and business processes.

Our platform empowers you to: Go far beyond simple keyword counting. Benefit from the only patent-pending social media monitoring and analysis technology. Dig deeper than measuring positive versus negative. Tap into billions of current and past online conversations. Gain actionable insights into the market's opinion of your brand and your products. Leverage a customizable, private dashboard. Know how and why your messaging is resonating (or not resonating) with your audience. Know what opinion leaders think about specific product features. Know what your customers like (and dislike) about the competition. Gain the insights necessary to make critical business decisions.
