Of the 300 professionals surveyed, 90% currently use more than one CDP… NINETY. PERCENT. Nearly half (44%) use three CDPs, and one-quarter use either two (23%) or four (23%) CDPs. But even with multiple platforms, most CDPs aren’t meeting the needs of the modern enterprise.

If that feels like a major disconnect to you, you’re not wrong. Brands are juggling more tech than ever trying to reach their goals, but it’s still not solving problems as intended. Tech should make life easier, but instead, it’s creating more headaches.

“56% of organizations prefer a composable CDP when purchasing a new solution.”

A composable CDP is an unbundled solution that collects, models, and activates customer data from your existing data infrastructure. Instead of operating as a separate entity, a composable CDP integrates directly with your existing data source.

Enterprise pros have positive sentiments toward composable CDPs, often preferring the modern approach over legacy tech. If purchasing a new platform, more than half (56%) of organizations would rather buy a composable CDP, while one-third (33%) have no preference for composable vs. packaged CDP.
