Web services provide a quick and efficient way to exchange information between clients, providers, commercial partners and platforms. 

Dialog Insight's web services let you send data from your systems directly to Dialog Insight, as well as receive data. By using XML and HTTP standards and protocols to transfer data, web services are compatible with most development environments, and therefore are platform-independent. 

Web services have many benefits:

  • give client applications the possibility to automatically access our services;

  • use languages and protocols that are platform-independent, ensuring compatibility between services;

  • use recognized Web standards, thus facilitating interactions between clients and interoperability.

When you use Dialog Insight as your electronic marketing application, it's easy to exchange data between your different platforms!

Here are a few examples of use:

  • All you client information is managed by your CRM, but you want to transfer certain information into Dialog Insight in order to send email messages and analyze results. You could, for example, set a web service call to create and modify contacts real time.
