I was curious if anyone out there has been closely involved
or done a vendor evaluation of web analytic vendors, Omniture, WebTrends and Coremetrics.
I’m just asking casually for a friend, nothing formal. I was just hoping
to get people’s perceptions.
Hi there, I'm not ~really~ in the Bay Area (I used to be, before moving
to Arkansas...), but I'll be out in San Diego for the Aprimo Conference
and I would love to meet up with some other Marketing Ops folks either
in San Diego or San Francisco. The Aprimo Conference is 2/9-2/11, we'll
likely head up to the Bay Area on 2/11. Anyone who would be willing to
meet and talk about the marketing ops space please let me know.
Thanks - I hope to meet some folks!
