Maximize the value of your data

Realize the true value of your data by unifying disparate data and ecosystems across the shopper journey, uncovering insights and optimization throughout. Microsoft Cloud for Retail includes a wide variety of tools to help you make the most of your data.

Unified customer profile

Microsoft Cloud for Retail includes the Unified customer profile solution which acts as a cohesive source of truth about your customers. Data that you produce from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Insights supports Unified customer profile. Use Customer Insights capabilities to select the most important data across multiple business lines. Use the information to provide personalized experiences, reveal important opportunities and improve customer satisfaction. Expand insight into your customer with the retail channel churn model to prevent churn and potential loss or churn.

Dynamics 365 Customer Insights

Combine real-time transactional, behavioral, and demographic data to create a complete view of your customers. Use prebuilt or custom AI models to predict customer needs.

For more information, see Dynamics 365 Customer Insights.

Retail channel churn model

AI-based retail channel churn predictive model assesses the chance customers will churn, or stop actively buying from you. After you configure and run it, the retail channel churn model assigns a score to each customer that reflects the chance they will churn, and identifies the most influential factors on those scores. You can see which customers are likely to churn and which aspects of their customer experience weigh the heaviest on that risk, so you can plan ways to delight your customers and retain their business. Use the information to provide personalized experiences, reveal important opportunities, prevent potential loss or churn, and improve customer satisfaction.
