“The problems that we see our customers running into that really feel intractable are the ones more on the people and the process side of data. It's something that technology can help with. It's something that CDPs can play a role in. But, I think we're also realistic that no tech or software is going to be the silver bullet. It's about different parts of the organization coming together and aligning on an overall data strategy that everybody will abide by.” – Kevin Niparko
