Reading time: 3 minutes
Customer Insights Release Wave 2

Customer Insights is often set up cleanly once and then hardly touched. The new Microsoft Release Wave delivers exactly what many companies need right now: faster exports, more precise segmentation and co-pilot functions that not only look good, but also contribute directly to campaigns, analyses and processes.

The trick is not to activate all the new functions, but to know which of the new features really help to make better decisions, address target groups in a more targeted way and finally use existing data operationally.

Why you should get to grips with the new functions now

With the current Wave release, Microsoft is not simply providing new possibilities, but concrete answers to typical everyday bottlenecks: segmentation, campaign export, data enrichment - everything is becoming more direct, faster and closer to the user.

If you are already running Dynamics 365 Customer Insights, now is the right time to check: What of it really benefits you operationally? What can be activated with just a few clicks and makes a measurable difference?
