Campaign Monitor Acquires Tagga Customer Data Platform

Email marketing vendor Campaign Monitor yesterday announced its purchase of Customer Data Platform vendor Tagga. It’s interesting on several levels: one of the few CDP acquisitions so far (surely more to follow); illustrates recognition of the need for more powerful data handling than conventional email systems provide; shows point solution vendors expanding footprint to compete with broader platforms/clouds/suites (also shown by recent Marketo/Infor deal). Beta integration due by end of 2017.
