According to a recent press release, “Act-On Software, the leading provider of adaptive marketing automation for fast-growing businesses, today announced the release of Engagement Insights, a new reporting tool that provides real-time access to analytics through a live data connection and pre-configured, templated reports in Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets – making data exportability and report sharing easy. Reporting and analytics continue to be top priorities for B2B marketers evaluating marketing automation vendors. In a recent study Act-On commissioned with Econsultancy, more than half of the marketers surveyed cited data management as a key challenge. When using Engagement Insights in conjunction with Google Sheets, companies never have to worry about version control or outdated CSV files. The live feed from Act-On to Google Sheets ensures that all key stakeholders always have the most up-to-date campaign performance data at their fingertips.”

The release goes on, “Engagement Insights helps companies jump-start data-driven marketing strategies by reducing the complexity associated with running pivot tables and building custom charts, and provides Data Studio-quality reports in an easy-to-view and easy-to-share dashboard. Shareability is a key benefit of Engagement Insights, helping companies break down data silos by democratizing marketing data across the organization and further empowering the business to leverage broader data sets to make decisions. ‘Engagement Insights makes it easy for me, my team, and other Education at Work executives to evaluate our marketing efforts and measure ROI,’ said Tanya Gantzer, Senior Vice President of Client, University and Marketing Development at Education at Work. ‘The reports help us better understand our audience and identify ways we can deliver greater value’.”
