Forrester Report: Customer Experience Budgets Increase in ‘06

Published on March 02, 2006 | Email this article

The majority of decision-makers said they would boost analytics and customer behavior research budgets, according to a Customer Experience Spending Booms In 2006 report published last month by Forrester Research, DM News writes. Also, 65 percent of companies said a top priority was to shift customer interactions to the internet.

The survey also found that the customer experience channels not getting more money this year included applications, automated phone centers, kiosks, speech recognition, and surveys.

According to Forrester, respondents said they want to shift more customers to self-service channels - and they’ve found that improving usability is the most effective way to accomplish that goal.

Over 300 decision-makers make up the Customer Experience Research Panel that was questioned on how they plan to spend money in 2006.
