Press Release
Pune, India, October 27, 2026: QKS Group announced today that it has named Acoustic as a leader in the SPARK Matrix™: Multichannel Marketing Hubs, 2026.
Richa Choubey, Principal Analyst at QKS Group, states, “Acoustic stands out in the multichannel marketing hub market through its focus on helping enterprises build, automate, and optimize customer engagement programs across the customer lifecycle. Its capabilities enable marketers to coordinate campaign workflows, leverage customer and behavioral insights, personalize interactions, and manage engagement across multiple touchpoints from a centralized environment. Acoustic’s combination of journey orchestration, AI-enabled decisioning, marketing automation, content personalization, and performance analytics provides organizations with the capabilities required to move beyond isolated channel campaigns toward more coordinated customer engagement strategies. This integrated approach enables marketers to respond to customer behavior more effectively, streamline campaign operations, and deliver relevant experiences at scale while improving visibility into marketing performance and business impact.”
QKS Group defines Multichannel
Marketing Hubs as platform that enable organizations to plan, create,
orchestrate, execute, monitor, analyze, and optimize personalized marketing
interactions across multiple channels through a unified environment. These
platforms support marketers in coordinating campaign management, audience
management, customer journey orchestration, personalization, content and offer
management, real-time interaction management, experimentation, analytics,
workflow automation, and governance across diverse customer touchpoints.
Multichannel Marketing Hubs enable organizations to deliver consistent and
contextually relevant interactions across email, mobile, web, messaging,
social, advertising, and other digital channels while connecting customer
insights with campaign and engagement strategies. Increasingly, these platforms
integrate with CRM, customer data platforms, commerce, customer service, sales,
loyalty, analytics, content management, and enterprise data environments to
support connected marketing operations. The evolution of MMHs therefore reflects
a shift from channel-specific campaign execution toward centralized customer
engagement orchestration, enabling organizations to automate marketing
workflows, respond to customer behavior, improve personalization, and measure
the effectiveness and business impact of multichannel engagement programs.
Acoustic operates at the intersection of several of the most significant trends
shaping the multichannel marketing technology market, including the growing
demand for personalized customer engagement, increasing channel fragmentation,
the shift toward real-time and data-driven marketing, the rising importance of
first-party data, and the rapid adoption of AI-driven campaign orchestration
and optimization. Rather than focusing solely on campaign execution, the
platform’s value lies in its ability to unify customer data, audience
intelligence, journey orchestration, content personalization, campaign
execution, and measurement across a broad range of digital and traditional
engagement channels. As marketers navigate increasingly complex customer
journeys characterized by fragmented interactions, evolving privacy
requirements, growing expectations for personalization, and rising pressure to
demonstrate marketing impact, platforms that can provide interoperability,
centralized orchestration, and intelligent decisioning become increasingly
important. Acoustic’s continued investments in AI-enabled marketing
capabilities, real-time personalization, customer journey orchestration,
audience management, predictive analytics, and multichannel campaign execution
reflect strong alignment with these evolving market requirements. While the MMH
market remains highly competitive and dynamic, Acoustic has established a
differentiated position as an enterprise-focused marketing technology provider,
helping brands orchestrate personalized customer experiences across channels
including email, mobile, web, SMS, and other digital touchpoints. Its ability
to combine customer intelligence, journey orchestration, personalization,
automation, and analytics positions it well as organizations seek greater
consistency, efficiency, and measurable business outcomes from their
multichannel marketing investments.
