History
Founded in Vienna in 2000 by Josef Ahorner, Hagai Hartman and Daniel Harari, Emarsys has enjoyed tremendous growth worldwide. The company was acquired by SAP in 2020 under the new name SAP Emarsys eMarketing Systems GmbH. SAP is a leading provider of high-end business solutions, a category to which the wildly popular Emarsys platform rightfully belongs.
Who is Emarsys geared towards?
The modular nature of Emarsys makes it highly scalable for all companies and therefore interesting for both SMEs and large enterprises which aim to:
- Create more personal marketing campaigns
- Save time by automating their marketing activities
- Gain insight into their target group and customers
- Maximise their marketing ROI
B2C
Since its inception, Emarsys has focused on business-to-consumer (B2C) companies. It is still one of the most popular automation platforms for e-commerce webshops and is constantly evolving with new features.
B2B
In recent years, especially since the merger with SAP, significant efforts have been made to transform SAP Emarsys into a business-to-business (B2B) tool. When used in tandem with SAP Sales Cloud, Emarsys becomes even more powerful, maximizing new opportunities that arise. For example, you can configure Emarsys to notify your sales team when a lead is detected as sales-qualified by the software.

Features
SAP Emarsys is a user-friendly marketing platform that uses machine learning (AI) to create custom campaign suggestions. It also excels at other marketing automation processes, such as:
- Automatically drafting, personalizing and sending e-mails
- Automatically personalizing website content and conducting A/B tests
- Encouraging leads to respond to custom content across different platforms
- Creating a real-time overview of current campaigns

SAP Emarsys: save time through automation
Automation is a core feature of Emarsys and is embedded in every aspect. Here are a few examples:
- Abandoned basket overview: A series of steps is automatically generated for people who drop out of the check-out process before completing their purchase. This is based on proven strategies.
- Long period without purchase: If a customer hasn’t made a purchase in a while, automatic notifications are sent to the sales department for follow-up.
- New website visitors: New visitors are automatically assigned a score that represents their customer journey.
- E-mail campaigns: Automatically segment your target audience to send personalized e-mails to specific groups.
These useful features give you immediate access to insights and campaigns that would otherwise have taken days to prepare, leaving you with more time to tackle other to-dos.
Did you know…
that 72% of customers use at least three unique channels before making a purchase? This highlights the importance of omnichannel personalization and understanding your customers’ needs.
Leveraging customer data
Use SAP Emarsys to get more out of your customer data. Seamlessly integrate it with your customer relationship management solution (CRM) or the SAP Customer Data Platform (CDP).
This allows you to leverage all customer data for maximum personalization using automation and artificial intelligence. SAP Emarsys also excels at targeted advertising on other websites and platforms thanks to Emarsys CRM Ads.
