"Acquiring CXTeam is an excellent opportunity for Medallia to bring in a really seasoned leadership team and accelerate the adoption of our platform in a vital area," said Leslie Stretch, CEO and President of Medallia. "CXTeam has been a fantastic partner throughout the years, and I am excited to take this next step with them."
Previous to this acquisition, Medallia had a long and strong partnership with CXTeam. Medallia clients and employees will be able to reap the advantages of the merger immediately.
Stretch added that "with CXTeam's extensive knowledge and experience, we can assist more firms in using Medallia Experience Cloud to achieve quicker ROI."
Medallia released the Medallia Experience Cloud in 2019, a software-as-a-service platform that uses proprietary AI technology to capture experience signals generated from in-person, digital and IoT engagements. The platform:
- Provides data (80% of which is non-survey data) to get a full perspective of customer and employee experiences
- Uses AI to find and prioritize the most critical customer and staff problems via the analysis of comments and feedback, allowing brands to select the best action for each touchpoint and journey
- Can integrate with other digital marketing tools, allowing for a cohesive and consistent experience across channels
Before the acquisition of CXTeam, Medallia's most recent (and biggest) purchase was Thunderhead, a business technology for real-time interaction management and journey orchestration. Thunderhead improves Medallia's capacity to enable personalized experiences and dialogues at scale across all online and offline channels, assisting thousands of clients in increasing brand loyalty, revenue and growth.
