How Cast Shares Presentations

Multi-channel, secure delivery

Cast delivers a personalized presentation to each contact through secure, per-contact links.

Contacts can open it in-app (inside an existing portal or dashboard), via email, or by text/SMS—whichever is most convenient. Links can also be shared during conversations with customers by CSMs.

In-app experiences (no context switching)

Works better for users and power-users

  • Popup overlay: Draw attention to a new presentation without leaving the page.
  • Embedded (iFrame): Keep the presentation inline within an existing page or tab.
  • New window/tab: Open the full, interactive experience separately when more space is helpful.
  • Customer Center: Publish to a dedicated in-app hub where contacts can return to past and new presentations. (e.g., Cloudera Customer Center or Cloudera Admin Console)

Email delivery (personalized and branded)

Works better for executives and decision makers

  • Per-contact emails: Personalized subject, pre-header, and body point each recipient to their specific presentation.
  • Brand-consistent: Uses your branding and approved links.
  • Transactional sender: Sent from the named owner (e.g., CSM/Account Owner) to improve deliverability, recognition, and engagement.
  • Built-in follow-ups: Up to 3 automated reminders so important stakeholders actually see and act.
  • Branded links: Messages will be sent from your domain for SPF/DKIM/DMARC alignment (e.g., cast.cloudera.com), and the presentation will open a recognizable URL (e.g., cloudera.cast.app) to boost trust, deliverability, and click-through. This two way branding improves deliverability.

Why this works

  • More eyes, fewer steps: The same presentation meets contacts where they are—inside your product, their inbox, or their phone.
  • Higher engagement: Personalization + branded trust + automated gentle reminders drive opens and completions.
  • Operationally simple: One publish action, multiple delivery paths—Cast handles targeting, links, and reminders.

Cast publishes once and delivers securely across in-app surfaces, email, and text—with personalization, branding, and automated reminders—so key stakeholders actually see, understand, and act on the presentation.
