NetSpring is a warehouse-native product and customer-journey analytics platform that runs analytics directly against a customer’s cloud data warehouse (rather than requiring event data to be copied into a vendor-controlled store). The product is designed to enable product, growth, marketing, and data teams to answer product-usage and customer-journey questions using governed, warehouse-based data, with the goal of supporting consolidated metric definitions and cross-functional alignment on metrics.
Following its acquisition, the product is offered by Optimizely as Optimizely Analytics (formerly NetSpring). The vendor positions the product to support analysis that links experimentation and marketing activity to business outcomes using a warehouse-native approach.
