{Customer Insights} Get faster insights at scale with auto-management of segments measures

uk365guy

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on Customer Insights get faster insights at scale with auto-management of segments, measures.

Let’s get’s started.

As your Dynamics 365 Customer Insights footprint grows, managing segments and measures becomes increasingly important. The sheer number of segments can impact system performance leading to longer refresh times for the entire environment. But fear not! Customer Insights now offers an intelligent solution: Automatic segment management.

Here’s how it works:

1. Automatic Deactivtion:

When you have a large number of segments and measures, it’s challenging to determine which ones are actively used and which are not.

The system now automatically deactivates segments or measures that haven’t been used after a specified retention period.

By doing so, it reallocates compute resources to the active segments and measures, resulting in faster system refresh and quicker insights.

2. Admin Control:

As an admin, you can enable or disable this automatic management feature.

Set the retention period that suits your organization’s needs.

If necessary, users can reactivate segments or measures.

This enhancement ensures that you can scale confidently, maintain optimal performance and swiftly gain valuable insights.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.

With send scheduling your messages reach customers precisely when they’re most likely to take action.

2. Feature Details:

In real-time journeys, you can easily schedule messages to be sent during specific time windows in a day or on specific days of the week.

Messages outside these send times are held until the next scheduled window.

Send times respect quiet times and frequency caps.

Align your communications with customers habits preferences and their most active hours to boost engagement.

Additionally you can use send scheduling to ensure messages are delivered when your business is ready to respond(e.g., during call center hours or when sales representatives are available).

uk365guy

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to share my thoughts on capture responses from external third party forms dynamics 365 customer insights.

Let’s get’s started.

Certainly! In Dynamics 365 Customer Insights – Journeys, you can now capture form submissions from any external forms and use them to create new leads or contacts.

Here’s how it works:

1.Maximize Potential: If you have custom-built forms on your website, you can leverage them to generate more leads and contacts for your business.

The best part? You don’t need to recreate these forms within Customer Insights – Journeys.

2. Automatic Creation: When users submit forms on your website(whether they’re third-party forms), the system will automatically create new leads or contacts in Customer Insights – Journeys.

3. Mapping Fields: You can easily create JavaScript with mapping of your form fields to existing entity attributes. This ensures that the captured data aligns correctly with your existing records.

4. Embed the script: To implement this, embed the capture script into multiple pages containing the same form. This way, you can seamlessly collect data from various parts of your website.

By capturing responses from external forms, you empower yourself to better understand your audience, target them more accurately, and follow up effectively. It’s a powerful feature that seamlines your lead generation process!.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.

{How to} Enable or Disable a frequency cap for your Journey Dynamics 365 Customer Insights

uk365guy

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to show how to enable or disable a frequency cap for your Journey.

Let’s get’s started.

The frequency settings is enabled by default for all journeys. So once the frequency cap settings are enabled globally, the message will be capped.

So the users who are editing rights in the Journey will be able to decide if the cap should be bypassed for a specific Journey.

How to bypass the frequency cap:

Login into Customer Insights

Go to the Journey and edit it and then click on the gear icon and you will see two options:

1. Apply frequency cap to this journey – skip commercial message if cap is reached.

2. Don’t apply frequency cap to this journey.

That’s it for today.

I hope this helps.
