โ†’
Shift to digital viewing highlighted the need for change.
โ†’
1,200+ integrations strained engineering resources.
FOX Corporation faced significant challenges due to the disparate, disconnected data systems across its numerous brands, such as FOX Sports and FOX News. This fragmentation hindered the company's efforts to deliver personalized digital experiences, a crucial need given the rapid shift towards digital and mobile viewing as consumers increasingly cut cords with traditional cable. The lack of a centralized data management system meant FOX couldn't see a complete picture of customer interactions, resulting in inefficiencies in deploying advanced customer data strategies. Moreover, the presence of over 1,200 fragmented integrations across its digital platforms bogged down engineering resources, making it difficult to maintain data consistency and optimize user experiences.
