Overall Satisfaction with Braze
I like Braze, but like most CRM/CEP tools, it has a very specific use-case that isn't universal. It works particularly well for companies that have a robust app and want to collect data across both app and website and perhaps even other points of engagement. If that fits your use-case, Braze is likely a great tool for you. Otherwise, there are likely better tools to consider.

Braze's functionality allow us to meet the customer where they are or, more importantly, where they want to be met. Not everyone wants emails, not everyone wants push, not everyone wants every message you will send. Braze really drives home personalized messaging and volume of messaging. The goal is to give everyone their ideal amount of messages through their ideal channel(s) at their ideal times when they've done or not done the ideal amount of things. Braze makes this feasible and unlocks this nuanced personalized set of experiences.
Braze fit our use-case. Every CRM/CEP has their positives and negatives and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. It's worth doing your due diligence on your current needs and assessing future needs as well. Sometimes scalability will be a priority and Braze will facilitate that, sometimes cost efficiency is a priority and perhaps that's better served by Klaviyo. Integration capability also matters and it's important your MarTech stack speaks to each other. Braze has a robust list of partners whereas other tools may require some middleware. It's worth doing your research when selecting your CRM/CEP because if you select incorrectly, you may be back at the drawing board within a year or two.
