It has been more than two weeks since my last post. Where have I been? Easy answer: Fully and blissfully engulfed in the blessing that is Adobe’s Customer Journey Analytics. I’ve imported my Adobe Analytics data, done some custom user stitching, and created some fun things that I didn’t even knew I’ve always wanted from Adobe Analytics. This experience (pun intended) has completely shifted the way I look at my own data.

At the end, you might end up with long SQL queries like I do: How Query Service works and interacts with Platform So what actually is Query Service? It provides a SQL […]
Adobe Customer Journey Analytics – The big Game Changer
It’s hard to follow any Adobe Experience Cloud outlet today without hearing about Adobe’s Experience Platform. At the same time, it’s very hard to grasp what it actually is and what we can use it for. If you are in the Adobe Analytics space you might also have heard about Customer Journey Analytics, which is is often mentioned in the same breath with Platform, with just as much uncertainty around it. I am fortunate enough to work in one of the first companies in Europe to actually have Customer Journey Analytics available. My dear Twitter followers will already know that I’ve spent a few days working with it and trying out some use cases. This post is about my actual first impressions with the product and why I think it might be the biggest game changer for Adobe Analytics customers in quite some time.
