The integration allows customer segmentation by survey responses, enriching anonymous visitor profiles with attitudinal data. Discover data segments can be automatically created with a few mouse clicks while in Adobe Survey, said the company.

Adobe Omniture Business Unit vice-president of product marketing Aseem Chandra said, "Many digital marketers have deployed surveys to capture customer sentiment, but too often that data sits in a silo, undervalued and underutilised."

Chandra continued, "With Adobe Survey, we are making survey data highly actionable because it’s integrated with the Adobe Online Marketing Suite. After all, what’s the value of asking your customers questions if you can’t act, and act quickly, on the answers?"

‘Survey’ also features a new, intuitive user interface and streamlined workflows. Digital marketers can also more easily style and brand a survey according to their brand’s typical look and feel. Survey customers can now rapidly deploy surveys hosted on an Adobe URL as well.
