What is the difference between a CDP and a CEP?
A Customer Data Platform (CDP) is a single source of customer data that can be used to identify target audiences and measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.
A Customer Engagement Platform (CEP) focuses on providing tools and capabilities for engaging and interacting with customers, such as segmentation, personalization, automated campaigns, and analytics.
Since CDPs are more concerned with gathering and analyzing customer data, they require a CEP to take action on those targeted segments.
