Once sent, measuring the impact of communication efforts is critical. Communicators need visibility into who has read their communication and insights into how the message landed with their audience. Amplify introduces robust reporting and analytics, enabling communicators to measure the success of their campaigns and make data-driven decisions to improve them.
