Apptentive Sees Record Growth as More Enterprises Seek to Engage Customers on Mobile
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) February 03, 2016 -- Apptentive, the leading mobile customer engagement platform, today announced its customers have surpassed 120 million conversations with their mobile consumers on over 550 million devices around the world. While brands traditionally reach only 1% of their customer base, Apptentive has helped its customers boost engagement to 23%; reaching 20 times more customers than the conventional rate. These milestones come as the consumer attention shift to mobile drives corporate priorities. To support this record growth in audience and consumer responsiveness, Apptentive has tripled the size of their team.
“It’s about time companies stopped focusing just on the software and started designing customer-oriented experiences. The most successful companies in the world put the customer first, and with Apptentive they can finally do so on mobile too—by reaching out and showing that they care,” said Robi Ganguly, CEO and Co-Founder of Apptentive. “When companies invest in having real conversations with their customers and design experiences with people in mind, everyone wins.”
