Digital Transformation Challenges in the Retail & E-commerce Sector

- Fragmented Customer Experience Platforms
Multiple legacy and third-party systems lead to inconsistent shopping experiences and data silos across sales channels. - Low Workforce Digital Engagement

Retailers must comply with PDPL, GDPR, and payment data regulations while protecting customer information and maintaining trust. - Lack of Benchmarking & Measurable ROI
Many organizations struggle to measure the maturity of their digital operations or quantify the return on digital investments.
