Journey Optimizer is really good for tracking journeys. It can tell you exactly where users are clicking, which pages they are visiting, and even link to physical location visits. It’s not well-suited for open-ended journeys where the user can take multiple paths to success. In such scenarios, it does not visualize or track the journey very well.

Cons
Adobe
  • The email building experience could be better when integrating AEM content fragments.
  • Not great at organizing content in each area. Could make better use of metadata to limit the content the end user has to wade through.
  • Content life cycle management could be more robust.

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

Usability
Adobe
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.

Pretty straight forward but it takes sometime to get used to. Not exactly like WordPress or other open source cms but it gets the job done

Reliability and Availability

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

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

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

Alternatives Considered

Adobe Journey Optimizer takes the lead because it integrates the functionality of several disparate systems, such as Adobe Marketo Engage (content creation/campaign operations) and Adobe Analytics (data, reporting, trends, predictions), to provide a comprehensive approach to campaign coordination and delivery, through reporting and informing our future campaign strategy. All of the products we use are valuable in different contexts. Adobe Journey Optimizer is a true silver bullet for delivering the most engaging, targeted marketing & communications campaigns!

Moosend is known as more of an industry standard than BuzzStream (which is a more budget tool), and it shows. BuzzStream has clearly cut corners in areas of usability and general UI, where Moosend, on the other hand, seems to have done it right from the beginning. Moosend is so much less clunky than the other tools we evaluated.

Return on Investment

  • Multichannel onboarding journey improving the engagement of freshmen in the business, resulting in a decrease in the dropout rate.
  • Separate business of anticipation of receivables from suppliers that used to be manual and now I have connected this entire operation via the S3 connector, less manual work and significant gains in conversions and payments

  • Moosend is quite affordable (500,000 emails for $500), so it's easy to see an ROI. It only takes a few recipients converting to make a campaign worth the spend.
