"They can now track customer feedback and look at it analytically," says Alex Moissis, VP of marketing at BusinessObjects. "They can determine what preferences customers have in terms of the milk being used to make the ice cream."

The information ranged from comments about the ingredients used in ice cream to queries about social causes supported by the company. |
