The challenge

Act-On, a marketing automation platform serving thousands of enterprises, had customer data scattered across multiple servers without centralized management. The result was slow, non-customizable reporting that frustrated users.

The solution

Act-On migrated to a Snowflake data infrastructure on AWS, then embedded ThoughtSpot with natural-language AI search and customizable Liveboards so customers could explore their own data.

Natural language search and AI-powered capabilities were impressive. The ability to query and create visualizations instantly proved far more intuitive than competing solutions.
