Preserving Retail Data ROI Means Protecting It

The retail industry transformed in many ways in 2020, with online sales representing a clear example of such customer preference shifts.

Those with the means to channel this data will uncover insights related to e-commerce, customer experience, inventory, marketing, staffing and supply chain trends. The data can also highlight what they did well, where they could have improved and, most importantly, how to respond in the coming year.
