Customer insights

Sitecore® Experience Database™ collects, connects, and acts on any information about an individual—from any channel and in real time.

360-degree customer view

The Sitecore Experience Database (xDB) is a big data marketing repository that collects and connects customer interactions to create a comprehensive, unified view of each individual customer. A key feature of our Sitecore® Experience Platform™ (XP), xDB enables marketers to gain a holistic customer view not just from a website’s interaction history but also from external apps, channels, devices, and data stores like CRM and ERP systems—anywhere.

xDB delivers a robust profile for each individual customer—called an Experience Profile®—that captures that person’s experience over time, including visits, campaigns they responded to, content viewed, intent signals, demographics, and needs.

Accessible in real time and at massive scale, customer data can be used to tailor subsequent brand interactions and experiences.
Incorporates Sitecore xConnect™, a framework that collects data from any channel like ERP, CRM, customer service, and non-Sitecore websites.
Cloud-friendly, with huge storage capacity.
