How Reputation Enables Access to Data from Multiple Sources
Reputation Staff Writer

Today, customer experience (CX) data is everywhere — and that’s a challenge for most organizations. First- and third-party customer data and unstructured data in the wild is generated across numerous, dispersed sources such as CRM systems, call centers, online reviews, and social media commentary. With so many data sources, how do you avoid data whiplash?
The companies that lead the way in providing a world-class experience for their customers are the ones that can harness all of that data, analyze it, learn from it, and get better. To gain a holistic view of all of your data, regardless of the type or source, requires an open platform that can integrate seamlessly with any data source.

These capabilities enable you to put vast amounts of data about your company to use and improve the experience customers have with your brand and your locations.
Because we have an open platform, we collect data from third-party survey providers such as Maritz or Qualtrics, or surveys native to your CRM. Using our APIs, this information can be gathered in real-time. If APIs are not an option for you, we offer file-based integrations, as well.
Once this data is inside our platform, our dashboards and widgets enable you to create customized views.
Our Insights solution provides prescriptive action for you to improve, and they tell you what impact those actions will have on your overall Reputation Score — a metric comprising nine factors relating to your reputation and expressed from zero to 1,000.
Our automation rules monitor all of the incoming data, regardless of source, and create tasks to ensure you are getting back to your customers and improving their CX.
Computed scores and metrics from within our platform or from any other third-party source can be displayed in views that are relevant for different roles within your organization.
