Version: v72

v2025.1.71.0 - Global control groups, administrative panel rework, NPS testing

caution

For the platform to work correctly after the upgrade you need to perform a migration, to do this:

1. Before running procevent, perform the data migration for ClickHouse:

/opt/MarketingPlatform/ak/bin/aktool profile_history add_gcg_id_column --config /opt/MarketingPlatform/config/main.json
/opt/MarketingPlatform/ak/bin/aktool history_storage add_gcg_id_column --config /opt/MarketingPlatform/config/main.json
/opt/MarketingPlatform/ak/bin/aktool history_storage add_profile_marks --config /opt/MarketingPlatform/config/main.json

The platform can only be started after the ClickHouse migrations are completed.

2. After completing the ClickHouse migrations, run aktool from the new build to migrate MongoDB:

./aktool --config config/main.json profiles migrate-gcg-flags

Note that the MongoDB migration may take from one to several hours. The global control groups feature will be available only after the MongoDB migration is completed.

3. Start procevent.

Major changes​

Global control groups​

The platform now includes a feature to select global control groups. Global control groups are parts of the customer base that temporarily does not receive marketing communications in order to analyze the effectiveness of marketing strategies. After some time, the user can compare key metrics of the main part of the clients and the control group. In case the groups' metrics differ insignificantly, the marketer can conclude that his campaigns are ineffective:

NPS testing in Forms​

You can now add a NPS survey to web forms created in the Altcraft platform. These surveys help you calculate the Net Promoter Score (customer loyalty index), a metric that shows customer commitment to a company or product. This index is one of the main indices for measuring customer loyalty. NPS allows you to analyze the strengths and weaknesses of a product and adjust your marketing strategy:

Block email editor​

The block editor Pixcraft has been added to the email template editor. It allows you to quickly and easily create an email template that will display correctly on all types of devices. The editor also supports AMP content for your emails:
