Ping Identity began their journey with Drift by conducting basic testing and started to ungate a lot of their content. They wanted to ensure that they had a mechanism for people to still engage with someone at Ping to get information. Drift provided the perfect solution for this, allowing them to ungate content, start a conversation, and lead users down the buyer’s journey. As the team’s usage of Drift evolved, they began to use it contextually, presenting a more personalized experience based on where a user is on the site, what is known about them, and where they are in the buyer’s journey. The team also leveraged Drift to provide a more self-serve experience for website visitors, with a playbook for the most common customer questions. They also used Drift to bring in new partners and gauge the interest of prospective partners.
