Highlights / Greatest achievement So Far:

Customer Case Study for GameDuell - Prior to Leanplum, GameDuell was using a mobile engagement solution that was lacking in tracking and usability. Features that were missing include: the inability to orchestrate campaigns across various channels, suboptimal A/B testing, no analytics dashboard, no audience segmentation model, and lack of email as a channel.

Solution - Leanplum delivered all the capabilities that were missing in GameDuell’s previous solution, offering a complete solution, including detailed product analytics and email.

GameDuell uses Leanplum for three primary use cases: onboarding new users, reactivating dormant users and engaging users.
