Adobe Journey Optimizer vs. Robly

Unifying all Adobe products and journeys. Omnichannel marketing. We wish it were easier to build emails, but it requires coding. I think once we get more training and use cases, we will be able to leverage it more effectively and get more out of it. We have other Adobe tools to use with it.

Robly can become easily exploitable for advertising agency services, which rely mostly on stable dynamics to make sure that marketing campaigns work and provide enough results to see profits. In other words, if Robly is managed from a purely professional methodology, better results can be obtained. Robly can also be used to manage small sales where you can better organize information about a specific customer, such as their contact details and history of interactions through different sales operations by the company, so it is not only possible to focus its use on mass marketing, but also intimate businesses that require some degree of administrative control in relation to new message alert notifications. If used in conjunction with services oriented to the execution of seminar sessions or online classes, it is possible to send mailings to groups, where the content information of each session allows viewing different documents and material of various formats from the e-mail, and thus make the sessions to be held seem more attractive to the public. This strategy is very feasible if you are going to sell a product explaining its use and characteristics.

• Integration with other AEP products.
• Easy build emails and journeys as long as there aren't complex integrations from AEM.
• Integration with AEM to see what AEM Content fragments are in use in what journeys.

• Ease of use. We switched to Robly from Constant Contact, and find it much more intuitive.
• Reporting. At a glance, we can see how effective our campaigns have been.
• I don't have a lot of experience with HTML, but I'm able to create good looking e-mails using the tools provided by Robly.
• The price is right! Our non-profit saved money by switching from Constant Contact to Robly.

• Intuitive UI design / Ease of accessibility for users with limited experience/subject knowledge.
• Analytics integration is difficult to navigate.
• My organization is having a difficult time adopting this platform across all divisions due to resistance to the new technology (accuracy, etc.).

• The emails do not allow us to add certain tools that would improve our management in the case of data collection, such as the application of interactive surveys within these emails.
• It does not integrate with services such as Survey Gizmo, which would be useful for structuring surveys.
• It also does not integrate with sufficient cloud backup platforms, which forces us to export our customer list data manually, and this can lead to errors.

It has been working very well, and actually it is a reliable tool for audience segmentation and everything that needs to be done for a campaign to deploy correctly

Because we like the price and value. The annual subscription model allows us to maximize usage without worrying too much about cost, being a small mom and pop outfit.

AJO certainly requires a firm understanding of how Adobe expects data to be architected. AJO should not be an organizations first experience with an Adobe product. We benefited from ~18 months of experience with RTCDP prior to bringing on AJO. Engageable profiles, data storage, profile usage limits, all factor in when using an omnichannel solution. Marketers must be careful to bring in only the data required for business use cases, and continually evaluate these needs in the face of a changing marketing ecosystem.

Overall Robly's usability can be considered easy and intuitive. For experienced marketing professionals this program would not be challenging to navigate even on the first uses. There may be a slight learning curve for amateur users but overall it is fairly simple and easy to use and creates professional results.

I do not rate it perfect because there are times that is not perfectly realiable, and it stops working when you need it the most, especially because the audiences take so long to evaluate and 2 times a dat to do them quickly is really not enough

I really think this is something that can be improved, especially the querrys, sometimes it takes too long for them to run

Sometimes when the manager connects to a support representative, even though the response is very immediate, they are not always able to provide a solution and we end up resolving the issue other ways

We sometimes got through to a message taking service but they were not able to resolve our issue with a one-call solution necessarily always.

It didnpt possess anything new from the online version of it, in fact, there were less

I give it this rating of 5 because the truth is I started the training with the pages in Adobe and is far more complete and has more explanations that the online training and you can revisit it as many times as you want to, the online non live version is better

The only thing I wanted to mention is that when going into the email edition, when adding labels, I was able to copy and paste the labels before, and now it has changed and I am no longer able to do it without editing the label itself

We should have been granted a MOBILE RESPONSIVE email template from the get-go. We were never offered any alternatives.

Adobe Analytics is head and shoulders about journey analytics. It’s simple an easy to use. It gives you the most accurate real-time data. It’s also the best reporting platform out there in the market. It was so easy to sign up and start using it for our internal reports. Journey optimization uses some of the reporting data but it never shows journey in one go. There is lot of initial setup to do.

When trying to find an email platform to use with our company, we tried out three major softwares: Robly, Mailchimp, and Constant Contact. The price of Robly is what initially made it stand out to us, but upon using it, we also fell in love with the simplicity of the editing options and the easy navigation and organization of our many lists of contacts. It was a clear choice of which software to go with in the end - Robly ran by a landslide!

This is very functional, is has been great to work with pleople from different areas and being able to show them how adobe journey optimizer works for the team

• Improved customer experience, allowing you to more confidently target customers with greater precision.
• Ability to run multiple journeys at the same time based on targeted audiences, instead of blindly performing segmentation and targeting.
• The interface fonts and icons are sometimes small and may require drilling down to several levels to configure a journey flow. E.g., Applying the right filter when sending an email with the right matching key requires multiple clicks, driving deeper into different levels of schema attributes.

• Robly has enabled us to become more efficient in communicating with our audience. Because of the small size of our organization, we have a limited number of hours to dedicate to crafting communication with our audience. The ease of use of Robly means that we can spend less time on the mechanics of creating mass emails and more time on the quality of the communication itself.
• Since we started using Robly, our Opt-outs, Spam and Bounce rates (which were already quite low) have dwindled to practically nothing. Over our last 10 campaigns, we had 6 emails bounce, 1 marked as spam, and 18 opt-outs out of over 30K emails delivered.
