Thanks to its innovative design choices and its NoSQL Data Platform, which receives and classifies 500 billion personalization points per month in real-time, Batch’s Customer Engagement Platform (CEP) enables marketing teams to test and automate CRM strategies ultra-quickly to engage their customers and grow their company’s sales:

  • Across the entire funnel → Clients (Identified profiles) and Prospects (Anonymous),

  • On all platforms → Web, Mobile Web, Mobile Applications (iOS/Android),

  • Via all channels → Email, SMS, Mobile Push, Web Push, In-App Messages, Inbox.

For B2C companies, it’s the modern way to do CRM — leveraging the opportunities offered by Big Data, Mobile, Real-Time, and AI.

Why do CRM teams choose Batch’s Customer Engagement Platform?

Traditional CRMs (or "marketing ERPs") have three major limitations that slow down marketing teams, minimize business impact, and create internal tensions.

  1. Outdated UI/UX. Aging, complex to configure and use, with heavy interfaces. Tools designed for technicians and consultants, requiring coding knowledge.

  2. Obsolete data models. Monolithic relational databases ill-suited for Big Data, Mobile, Real-Time, and AI. No ability to manage anonymous audiences or behavioral data.

  3. Single-channel focus. Often tied to one or two legacy CRM channels (Email and/or SMS). No native integration of Mobile channels. No native omnichannel orchestration capabilities.

Due to their technical nature, traditional CRMs create recurring friction between Marketing teams—who report feeling a lack of autonomy—and Technical teams—who say they repeatedly intervene on low-value-added tasks.

« My traditional CRM was too complex. I needed to be able to launch CRM campaigns quickly without constant intervention from my tech team. »

Batch is built for CRM teams and loved by Technical teams

For 10 years, Batch has been driven by a vision: to create a new kind of CRM platform that is both ultra-powerful technically and easily usable in daily operations by marketing teams—without ever becoming a « tool for technicians. »

The result is a modern, ergonomic platform that empowers marketing teams with autonomy.

Each month, over 3,000 CRM experts log into our dashboard to create and analyze their campaigns, awarding Batch an NPS of 48 and a CSAT score of 97.6%.

Batch has completely rethought and natively integrated the 3 essential functional components of a modern Customer Engagement Platform

In addition to their technical complexity, traditional CRMs have created fragmented work environments, known as 'data silos.'

These architectures are the result of multiple generations of tools connected in a patchwork manner: either through connectors or as a result of companies acquiring each other.

Batch has entirely reimagined this issue by creating a unified Customer Engagement Platform (CEP) that brings together the 3 essential components of a modern customer engagement platform on the same technological foundation—without compromising its technological base:

  1. Batch Data Platform ↓

  2. Batch Engagement Platform ↓

  3. Batch Delivery Platform ↓

« You get a ROI with Batch that far exceeds the classic CRMs we knew a decade ago. Easily 2 to 3 times higher. »

  2. Scoring and AI data calculated in third-party tools (e.g., Tinyclues, Moonfish).

  3. Behavioral data natively captured by our SDKs on web and mobile.

  4. Contactability data natively captured by our SDKs and APIs (opt-in/opt-out for Email, SMS, Push, etc.) to manage marketing pressure.

These data are easily viewable within an interface called Profiles. They can be used on the fly to create dynamic segments, trigger or recurring campaigns, or personalized messages—without technical intervention—within the Batch Engagement Platform.
