SAP Customer eXperience (CX)

1st & 2nd Generation Experience Builder / Demo's

The Experience Builder was built to allow anybody in SAP or associated partners to have the ability to present and show rich experience using products which are part of the SAP Customer Data solution.

Originally started with just Customer Data - CIAM & ECPM, the experience journey (demo) now incorporates Customer Data Platform, Emarsys and Qualtrics.

If this is your first-time using the experience build and demos it is highly recommended you check out the Training & Enablement first as this contains helpful tips and videos.

You require to define a theme for the customer experience.

CDC Demo Configuration

If you are new to the CDC Demos, you might not know about the ability to customize your demos. Back in 2015 I was given the task to create a Gigya Demo for Media, the 'Gigya Media' site, I decided rather than build a specific vertical site, I would build a framework which could be skinned for any vertical and/or any client, and that really gave us the basis of the Experience Builder we use today.

So, your demos you have A LOT of customization which you can do yourself, you can turn on and off features and integrations, change screen-sets and screen, and for those of you which are more advanced you can even connect your own CDC API Key, and MUCH MUCH MORE.

To open the Configuration Modal when you land on the demo site, open the bottom toolbar using the button bottom right of the screen and then choose the Config option.

TOOLS
IMPORTANT

Please make sure your browser has 3rd Party Cookies ENABLED. If you have any problems with loosing your session to the demo portal or to the actual demo, this potentially is down to the blocking of 3rd party cookies which are starting to be set by default in browsers.

If you have any problems with the portal or the demo, first, try a HARD REFRESH to hopefully fix the problem.

DEMO Notes

Always check your site before the meeting with the client.

Once you choose a theme you will always bypass this screen during the demo. Use the 'Bottom Toolbar' on the site to get back here to change theme or https://demo.gigyaex.com/index-portal.html?redirect=false.

3rd Generation Experience Builder

Currently as a SAP Partner you wont have access directly to the supporting material for the 3rd Generation Experience Builder. Please contact John Lilley to request access.

What if you could do CX Demos on a Clients Real, Live Site? If we could present our story, our customer journey but have it working and running directly on the clients website. That is what the 3rd Generation Experience Builder provides, the ability to run your demos working on the clients live site and presenting back to them. Pretty cool stuff!

So, I started working on a way to incorporate the CX Demo Framework into clients live sites, which gives the ability to

  • Show our demo, our story, on a Real / Live Client Site(s).
  • Show Customer Data - CIAM on the clients live site.
  • Show activity on the clients live site going to Customer Data – CDP.
  • Have an Emarsys Campaign & Email go to the clients site.

To utilise and use, I wrote a Tampermonkey script which when run on the clients site will embed the demo into the real site. Check out the videos below for the overview and seeing it in action

Important Material
Important Notes
  • This DOES NOT REPLACE the 1st and 2nd Gen Demos, this is an ADVANCED version to show more immersed demos on clients real-sites, as and when it is needed.
  • This approach might not work on all sites!
  • This requires you to install the Tampermonkey browser extension.
  • It is not a requirement to be technical but the more technical knowledge you have the easier using the script will be (e.g. HTML, CSS, JS, etc.).
  • Requires more setup and, with lots of moving parts, allot more can go wrong :-P
  • The script is flexible and can be extended as needed.
README
