AI, Analytics and MarTech leader SAS has been recognized as an AI & Machine Learning leader in the Modern Marketing Data Stack 2023: How Data-Forward Marketers Are Redefining Strategies to Unify, Analyze, and Activate Data to Boost Revenue report by Snowflake, the Data Cloud company.

Snowflake’s data-backed report identifies the best of breed partner solutions used by Snowflake customers to show how marketers can leverage the Snowflake Data Cloud with accompanying partner solutions to best identify, serve, and convert valuable prospects into loyal customers. By analyzing the usage patterns of approximately 8,100 customers as of April 2023, Snowflake identified ten technology categories that organizations consider when building their marketing data stacks. The extensive research reflects how customers are adopting solutions from a rapidly changing ecosystem and highlights the convergence of AdTech and MarTech, the increased importance of privacy enhancing technologies, and the heightened focus marketers have on measurement to maximize campaign ROI.

The ten categories include:

• Analytics & Data Capture
• Enrichment
• Identity & Activation
  • Identity & Onboarders
  • Customer Data Activation
  • Advertising Platforms
• Measurement & Attribution
• Integration & Modeling
• Business Intelligence
• AI & Machine Learning

Focusing on those companies that are active members of the Snowflake Partner Network (or ones with a comparable agreement in place with Snowflake), as well as Snowflake Marketplace providers, the report explores each of these categories that comprise the Modern Marketing Data Stack, highlighting technology partners and their solutions as “leaders” or “ones to watch” within each category. The report also details how current Snowflake customers leverage a number of these partner technologies to enable data-driven marketing strategies and informed business decisions. Snowflake’s report provides a concrete overview of the partner solution providers and data providers marketers choose to create their data stacks.
