Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of business intelligence (BI) on customer experience in e-commerce. Three objectives were evaluated: the impact of real-time data analysis on the personalization of the shopping experience, how BI can improve proactive problem resolution in customer service, and the influence of data integration on optimization and consistency of customer experience. Descriptive analyses, multiple regression, ANOVA, hypothesis testing and cluster analysis were performed on a sample of 150 e-commerce companies. The results indicate that ad personalization, facilitated by real-time data analysis, has a significant but negative impact on customer satisfaction and loyalty.


The qualitative analysis through interviews highlighted those BI tools allow for faster and more effective problem resolution. Data integration showed a trend to improve conversion rate and customer loyalty, although no statistically significant results were found. The cluster analysis identified four groups of companies with distinctive characteristics in terms of BI implementation and its impacts on customer experience. Companies with greater adoption of real-time data analytics and ad personalization showed challenges in customer satisfaction, while those with better data integration tended to have better conversion rates
