Use casesUsage data that transforms media and entertainment
When media and entertainments companies take full control of data about how their services are used, amazing things happen. Better customers experiences, new partnerships and new business models. Learn how usage data can transform your business.
Usage data that improves experiences and your bottom line
Media and entertainment companies have long known that customer data is critical to their success. But as digital services grow and the market becomes increasingly competitive, it’s time for media and entertainment companies to step up their game.
Usage data, processed in a real time, is the answer. With this data, media and entertainment companies can personalize content even more, offer new types of usage-based services, and share revenue with partners with full auditability.
Media and entertainment trends and challenges

Delivering personalized, digital experiences
Companies like Netflix, Spotify and Disney+ are achieving massive growth by offering simple, personalized experiences. And customers are now expecting these kinds of experiences everywhere, whether they are gaming or using VR headsets.
Managing customer data across your business
Digital offerings in media and entertainment are becoming more complex, with different pricing and tiers. This is leading to increased complexity in back-end systems. Siloed customer data can ultimately lead to poorer customer experiences and lost upsell opportunities.
Compliance and accelerated M&A activity
With increasing regulations, media and entertainment companies need to carefully manage how they interact with customers and handle their data. At the same time, mergers and acquisitions make creating a unified view of customer data increasingly difficult.
Data is the key to transformation
When you get full control of usage data
For media and entertainment companies that make full use of their customer data, the opportunities are endless. They can use data to get customer insights and offer new and even more profitable services and content. They can automate real-time upsells. They can forge new partnerships with offerings that make them stand out in the market.
What makes the transformation difficult
Customers want a simple, personalized experience – but unfortunately, the back-end of that is far from simple. Companies are slowed down by legacy systems that aren’t agile enough to process all customer data in real-time. And when you offer content through partnerships and need to figure out who gets paid what, then it gets even harder.
