Simply follow our step-by-step process for each platform, and this will permit the automatic flow of campaign data to be pulled into your Arena Calibrate dashboard.

Question 10

Will my data be secure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Connections to your data sources and destinations are SSL encrypted by default. Our connectors require only READ permissions. For data sources that by default grant permissions beyond read-only, our connectors (from Fivetran) will never make use of those permissions.   Our underlying BI engine is AWS QuickSight, a secure platform with multi-region availability and built-in redundancy. Amazon Quicksight is part of the AWS assurance program and is currently assessed for SOC (1,2,3), PCI, ISMAP, HIPPA, IRAP, MTCS, C5, K-ISMS, OSPAR, HITRUST CSF, FINMA. Additionally, Quicksight is undergoing 3rd party assessments for FedRAMP, DoD CC SRG. The effectiveness of the platform’s security is regularly tested and verified by third-party auditors as part of the AWS compliance programs. To learn about the compliance programs that apply to Amazon QuickSight, see AWS Services in Scope by Compliance Program.

Question 11

Does the Arena Calibrate platform change or alter my campaigns in any way?

Accepted Answer

No. Arena Calibrate requires read-only access to the platforms, which enables our systems and APIs to automatically pull campaign data into the dashboard, but not alter or edit any live campaign settings, parameters, budgets, and ads. Arena Calibrate services solely as a valuable campaign performance analytics tool, not a campaign management tool.

Question 12

If I stop using Arena Calibrate, what happens to my data?

Accepted Answer

When you decide to close your account, all data pulled into the Arena Calibrate platform will be deleted from our data warehouse. All your platform data is safe and secure and is ONLY deleted from the Arena Calibrate platform and NOT across your individual platforms. Alternatively, for security, after one (1) month of non-use of your account, your account will be automatically deactivated and all data is archived.

Question 13

Accepted Answer

Question 19

What data is pulled into your platform when I connect my Marketing Automation or CRM platform?

Accepted Answer

We mainly use data aggregates for our reporting and visualizations (e.g., lead numbers, lead source, stages, etc.) We essentially use the contact's email address to clean up duplicates and correlate the data across systems. Wherever possible, other forms of PII (name, phone number, address, etc.), comments/email communication with each contact, etc., ARE EXCLUDED from the data pull when we configure the connectors. Each platform has its nuances; that's why MA/CRM implementations require custom configurations.

Question 20

Question 25

Accepted Answer

We built Arena Calibrate to be an out-of-the-box solution for marketers everywhere. However we understand that when it comes to data and dashboards, one size cannot fit all.  If you would like customizations, we offer paid options to provide you precisely what you need: 1) One-time - Consulting hours of 10 / 25 / 50 hours packages @150/Hr Includes customizations on data sets, calculations and visualizations. 2) On-going - For on-going additions, modifications you can sign-up for the consulting packages on a monthly retainer basis. See above for package details. 3) Author Role - Our default package offers a viewer role which means you can interact with the dashboards and use filters, drill-downs etc but cannot create new charts or modify existing visuals. You can upgrade to the Author role which will give you complete control over the visualizations.

Question 26

If I need ‘help’ on the dashboard and place a ‘request’. How long will it take for someone to get back to me?

Accepted Answer

Our customer success team will be in touch with you as soon as possible within a 24 hour window.

Question 27

How are automatic campaign performance insights calculated in the platform?

Accepted Answer

We leverage Amazon QuickSight machine learning to help you uncover hidden insights and trends in your data. We use Amazon's proven machine learning technology to deliver auto narratives and anomaly detection. The "Insight" tab helps you understand the active keywords that did not convert in the last 30 days. We calculate this based on the keywords and flag the numbers where specific keywords have spent more than 2x the cost per conversion. The ML-powered anomaly detection computation searches your data for outliers. We have detected the top N outliers across paid channels, devices, and campaign names based on conversions.
