In today's competitive digital environment, businesses increasingly recognize the importance of providing a cohesive and integrated experience for their customers, employees, and users. This approach, known as “total experience” (TX), brings together four crucial elements: customer experience (CX), multi-experience (MX), employee experience (EX), and user experience (UX). Achieving success in these areas means a company has created seamless, personalized interactions that enhance satisfaction and foster customer loyalty and increased operational efficiency to differentiate itself in the market.

One powerful tool enabling businesses to deliver this integrated experience is OpenText™ Exstream™, a robust platform for customer communications management (CCM).
