Kibo Delivers Fully Integrated Personalization Strategy With Personalized Search

Kibo announces enhanced Personalized Search as part of Kibo Personalization offerings

Kibo, the leader in unified commerce, announced that Personalized Search is now available. Kibo Personalized Search is the latest personalization feature to further bring Monetate and Certona capabilities into the Kibo platform, giving companies the power to deliver a fully integrated personalization strategy, from browse and discovery, through to re-engagement.

“Our clients are increasingly invested in personalization across customer touchpoints, from commerce to marketing. We often turn to Kibo’s personalization products for ease of use and best-in-class functionality, and Personalized Search is another great tool from Kibo,” said Sara Meza, SVP of eCommerce, PeakActivity, a digital consulting and implementation company specializing in eCommerce, Digital Marketing and Technology solutions.

A study from Forrester Research found that 43% of site visitors immediately go to a search box when on-site, and those searchers are two to three times more likely to convert than other visitors. Kibo clients can now deliver search as part of a holistic personalization strategy, with access to a set of powerful yet flexible levers to improve results, and more control over one of the most valuable elements of a website.

  • Personalized Search delivers a set of powerful search capabilities covering the browse and discovery journey:
  • Personalized Site Search: Provides hyper-relevant search results leveraging the power of Monetate and Certona
  • Personalized Category Pages: Provides personalized product listings on category or subcategory pages
  • Predictive Visual Search: Enables instant recommendation results for as-you-type, partial, or full-search terms

Kibo Personalized Search brings retailers closer to delivering a truly personalized experience across the customer journey. Kibo clients can efficiently leverage data and insights across the customer journey and can streamline the number of different solutions they need to drive results. Kibo clients gain greater visibility into the role of search across the customer experience and can test outcomes based on a broad range of inputs and data sources.

“As a fully integrated personalization solution that combines the best of Monetate and Certona in a single platform, Kibo Personalization is now the leading solution on the market,” said Ram Venkataraman, Chief Product & Technology Officer, Kibo. “With Kibo, our clients gain visibility, efficiency and control to further enhance the customer experience. And with Kibo Personalized Search, they can cater to modern customer expectations in a way that drives increased business results.”

Welcome

The vision behind everything in Futurum’s Custom Research practice is this: research should show you what is happening, what comes next, and what to do about it. It should be personal to each audience, easy for people to grasp, and structured so LLMs can reason over it accurately. And it should be fast and turnkey; you want answers now, not another project to carry for quarters.

Whether you are defining business, channel, or go-to-market strategy; evaluating vendors or justifying ROI; or commissioning research to fill an emerging market need, we have your back, with a program that answers your questions with the objectivity and credibility to drive real decisions.

To do it, we bring unmatched data to bear: Futurum research, surveys, and market projections; validated market feeds; ETR’s 15 years of insight from 10,000 technology decision-makers; G2’s buyer and user data; and what our analysts hear every day. Add leading primary collection, from AI-moderated voice interviews to surveys and analyst-led interviews, all turnkey, and every project comes out credible, nuanced, and actionable.

And we don’t just drop the results in your lap. For internal work, we provide analyst-led sessions, interactive dashboards, and a range of formats. For market-facing work, Futurum delivers turnkey activation and amplification that actually gets seen, by people and by LLMs, through our media and share of voice. This is research that moves decisions and markets.

We will meet you wherever you are, from a fast-turn brief to a multi-year program, and shape the work to your goals, timeline, and budget. The right program for your moment.

If any of this is useful, I would love to talk.
