With these 9 new assignments you are able to really fine tweak your Engage Box based on very distinct details such as the User ID, the Time on Site, the Browser and many many more!

Let's take a look at them one by one.

Distinguishing between Windows and Mac is a great advantage. With the Operating System Assignment you can target more than just these two major OS!

Component

Wouldn't it be nice to see which component is active on certain page and then display a box focused on this information? A directory component would be a nice use case for a box informing them of signing up into that directory! The Component Assignment can help you achieve that!

IP Address

There isn't much to say about the IP Address Assignment other than that it is the swiss army knife of any network knowledgeable administrator and it can greatly assist into distinguishing its traffic and popping boxes according to that.
