Using Technostack Analysis to Understand Your Prospects' Digital Marketing Setup

What is Technostack Analysis?

Technostack Analysis is a feature within the CRM that provides a detailed look at a prospect's current digital marketing technology setup. It examines the tools and integrations present on their website, helping you understand how they track and optimize their marketing efforts.

By identifying which marketing technologies are properly implemented, missing, or misconfigured, you can pinpoint specific areas for improvement. This allows you to provide targeted advice and recommend solutions that align with their business goals.

What Information Does the Analysis Provide?

The analysis scans a prospect's website to detect the presence and configuration of key marketing tools. This visibility helps you identify setup gaps, reporting issues, and potential opportunities for service upgrades.

The feature checks for several common marketing technologies, including:

  • Facebook Pixel: Determines if tracking is installed for conversion tracking and remarketing campaigns.
  • Google Tag Manager: Checks for the presence of a tag management system to support flexible tracking deployment.
  • Google Analytics: Verifies whether analytics tracking code is present on the website.
  • Google Ads Conversion Tracking: Confirms if tracking is set up for measuring campaign performance.
  • Google Ads Scripts: Detects the use of supported Google Ads scripts where applicable.

Note: The detection capabilities for various technologies are periodically improved. If a prospect's report was generated before these updates, you may need to refresh the report to see the latest analysis results.
