ActionIQ is ideal for a medium and large-sized organization that already has a lot of data stored across existing data warehouses and data lake solutions and is looking for a CDP with refined data models that can extract the key insights, analyse them and create detailed customer profiles for real-time targeting.

In any scenario where we have a unique offline and online 'Person ID,' we are able to see great results with profile stitching within CDP. In cases where we do not have a unique Person ID between datasets, we find ourselves at a point where we would need to change our architecture to have the same Person ID to see results.

  • Some features that are not yet released to all customers are necessary to manage cases like device sharing
  • The methodology of how data is stored and manage is relatively unique and requires some ramp-up to fully understand
  • There are some areas, like deduplication, where the platform doesn't provide the flexibility one would expect

As I mentioned earlier, there are many reasons such as preparing a unified customer profile so you can easily evaluate your customers, generating segments or audiences for similar types of customers based on city, country, or attributes, and targeting them for campaigns. You can also create individual personalized journeys based on the data available at the customer level.

Activation - great Segmentation - in UI, there should be the possibility of writing advanced code Tags. Both Mobile and Desktop Data Ingestion - might be pain in the ass. Changing one customer attribute is time-consuming. It should be some super admin or some feature. One user can change some customers' attributes easily. Data Transformation - Maybe there are some modules for that in AJO?

In my opinion, Tealium is a better product for sure, has a much more refined analytics engine but the reason we went for ActionIQ is the better integrations it offers in the ad tech space with the various SSPs and DSPs. We integrate it with LiveRamp and Goofle ads exchange and it works flawlessly. It is also significantly cheaper than Tealium.
