Insider strengthens its footprint in MEA & India with 3X growth following a series of customer wins, including Samsung, Jarir, KOJ, MyAster, Arab National Bank and Vogacloset


Insider, a single platform for building individualized, cross-channel experiences, today announced 3X growth in twelve months. This news comes following notable customer wins – including Samsung, Jarir, KOJ, MyAster, Arab National Bank and Vogacloset – and continued expansion among existing customers.

Insider powers hundreds of MEA & India brands across industries like retail, eCommerce, financial services and banking, telecommunications, media and entertainment, and travel and hospitality. Insider’s impressive MEA & India growth comes despite a softening economy and uncertainty.

The economic outlook and consumers’ reduced spending power have led many marketing and CX leaders to focus on consolidating tech stacks. Their mission is to reduce overlapping costs, gather revenue-driving insights otherwise lost in disconnected systems, and unlock more substantial ROI and business value from each investment. This renewed focus on driving profitable growth from CX technologies has significantly contributed to Insider’s growth in the region, given its proven ability to deliver ROI 3X faster than any other vendor (G2).

“At Insider we’re growing very quickly in MEA & India market for delivering the best CX journey with excellent local account management and support to our customers. We are also expanding our local team in Dubai, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, India, and South Africa offices to meet demands and satisfy the customers,” says Leo Thomas, Managing Director at Insider and continued to add “Our commitment is to combine local know-how with global expertise to ensure our customers receive the highest levels of customer satisfaction. This commitment was recently recognized when our team won The Gainsight Dream Team Award. G2 users also rate our ‘Quality of Support’ as 9.6/10, one of the highest scores compared to any other vendor.”

“We’re witnessing amazing demand from the MEA & India’s top brands and retailers thanks to our robust solution, which was created expressly for marketing and eCommerce teams to produce outstanding, growth-driving CX initiatives,” adds Ajish Pillai, Commercial Director at Insider.

“Our 5/5 ranking in 16 key Forrester product criteria for Cross-Channel Campaign Management – including ‘Personalization’ and ‘Predictive analytics and machine learning’ – gives our customers confidence in the platform,” says Bharat Mittal, Partner Success Team Director at Insider and continued to add “Our customers are looking to consolidate and simplify their customer journey on the web, mobile or mobile app. Especially Insider WhatsApp product meets a lot of demands in MEA & India market.”

“We have recently made several exciting announcements, including our acquisition of Meta-verified Messaging Platform, MindBehind, which will enable Middle Eastern and multinational brands and retailers to deliver end-to-end shopping experiences within messaging applications like WhatsApp. We are proud that our customers will lead the way as some of the first brands in the world able to deliver this new generation of end-to-end customer experiences, forever changing the dialogue between brands and consumers”.

“8.7x ROI with Insider’s multi-channel marketing hub in just one quarter”

What do you like best about Insider?

Insider has consistently helped us achieve our growth targets. We started using their mobile capabilities and were impressed by how much we were able to connect with our customers through non-traditional channels. Since then, we have decided to invest in InStory, as well, a social-media-inspired feature that offers an interactive way of showcasing products to improve [product] discovery. This feature comes with 100+ different templates, which our e-commerce team has a lot of fun using. This, too, has impressed the team very much, and we are now planning to implement their Smart Recommender and Architect, their customer journey builder, in the next quarter.

What problems is the product solving, and how is that benefiting you?

Insider’s AI engine is brilliant, and we haven’t seen notifications so well-timed and personalized for individual customers before. With Insider’s help, we have improved our personalization experience exponentially, so much so that more and more recurring customers of ours have been converted to VIP customers, significantly increasing their LTV, which is why we are continuing to invest in more Insider features to add to our marketing toolkit. Their account management team is second to none! They offer strategic support and give us recommendations that are impactful. We have already improved our revenue and customer retention rates since using Web Push and InStory.
