Adobe Audience Manager vs. Salesforce Audience Studio

If you are already using multiple other pieces of the Adobe Experience Cloud stack, adobe audience manager is an easy choice. It allows for quick and easy data activation for your first and potentially brokered 2nd party data. However this product will likely be absorbed into the adobe experience platform (AEP) soon. In the end I would wait to see where adobe is truly headed with this product before investing heavily without additional heavy adobe investments.

Publishers and Advertising becomes more simple & strategic. Some custom development along with Cloud integration technologies could be proven more helpful. the articles should increase to showcase the product and its capability. In different organizations, I understand that it gets used in various ways. All the details and processes of multiple organizations can if showcased more, could really help the other organizations who are planning to dive into it.

• Biggest challenge we faced is teaching the use of it to our employees how to use it. The UI Should be easy and to understand for all fields.
• The AdWords integration is not easy to do.
• UI is sometimes slow and doesn't load Analyticals for more than 24 hours.

• Lightning salesforce is not at all user-friendly and confusing as compared to the classic version.
• There is so much to offer by Salesforce that sometimes it is difficult to start the day to solve the actual problem statement. Dashboards are intuitive but extreme planning should be there before starting your day.

Overall usability is great, as are most of Adobe's software. Maybe a UI refresh could make it a bit easier to do advanced functions or reporting but, overall, it works very well. This is something you take for granted with Adobe solutions because when you try another vendor you realize how bad it can be.

Certainly, the best part of the software, the insight of this part can help a lot to gather new trends to effectively achieve new deals and perform better overall. Is it worth the cost of the rest of it, it is a question still in the open for us while we are trying other competitor DMP.

AAM has good support, but the support is not as available, due to waiting time and queue. The instructions presented are available, but it navigation is not easy between pages. However, instructions are usually direct and straightforward, but any underlying thoughts or questions won’t be easily answered without support from their service.

The support is simply great, their bots are always active to pick up any case and classify it in order to deliver a proper feedback from a real person behind the scenes, do not hesitate to answer for any quick doubt, I'd say 99% of the errors have already been reviewed.

time and effort for a SMB to implement was misleading, although promise of the solution was outstanding

I personally like the Adobe Audience Manager interface and it's easier to use for beginners. It also has some features that Google does not, nor do its other competitors. It is worth the money and time spent, overall. I feel like it gives a bigger and more in-depth picture to our company's audience than other programs.

We chose Salesforce Audience Studio over these competing products because it was a part of our overall Salesforce CRM contract and it made financial sense to bundle it along with our other products. I also feel the sales team did a great job in answering our questions and talking to an enterprise-level organization v/s some of the competing platforms out there.
