About This Constellation ShortList™

Constellation Research estimates a $12.4B software and services market for the global customer loyalty management market by 2027 growing at a 6.3% CAGR.  Customer loyalty is a sub-segment of the overall customer experience market. Successful customer loyalty programs advance the relationship between an organization and its customers beyond the elementary transactional relationships concerned with pricing and convenience.

As organizations deliver on a brand promise, customers who believe in that mission or purpose will develop loyalty that results in the customer recommending products and services. Loyal customers will also continue the cadence of purchasing over a time and hold the belief that the brand or organization meets a higher purpose.

Customer loyalty solutions provide the capabilities to manage, track and influence the outcomes of loyalty.
