Key Quote:

“True centralization aggregates data from all channels, not just what someone clicked on the website – offline, IoT, support... Let's have shipping and returns data and everything else that is required to properly instrument a real business put in a single place, which is governed, secure, complete, and accurate.”- Jason Davis
