Adobe Experience Platform Launch is a new "next-gen" tag management solution. Like Adobe's other tag management product, Dynamic Tag Manager, Launch is based on the acquisition of Satellite from Search Discovery in 2013. But Launch is built to facilitate a more open, integrated marketing technology stack. Launch plays nicely with Adobe and non-Adobe products. It includes an open API and a catalog of extensions (like an app store of pre-built integrations to other platforms) so that data can flow…N/A

It's great for reporting and putting data in one place. Building real-time profiles can help a business run better by understanding what is going on with its customers. I do not believe this would be as necessary for small businesses but would be good to implement with growth. I also wouldn't recommend this if you weren't going to put the work into fully utilizing their features.

ObservePoint is a great tool for automating page testing and standardizing campaigns to observe accurate customer insights. You can identify customer mapping journey. They also help in data protection and insights which are very important and essential these days. They should work more on easy interface designs. Overall, it is the best.

Cons
Adobe
  • The right amount of video tutorials.
  • While using Luma for learning purposes, it's hard because we do not have access to edit the script at the code end. If this is shown how we can extract data while we are learning it makes people learn faster.

ObservePoint
  • Page details, although interesting, are not very useful as the data is too granular and not possible to integrate with other analytics data for insights.
  • Some of the custom tagging may be a little complicated, so sometimes we need an engineer or an ObservePoint tech to help us out.

I was not actively involved in the process of actually buying the tool. What I know is that Adobe Experience Platform Launch covered "the majority of our tickbox." Moreover, our responsible people really enjoyed the discussions with the people from adobe and were reassured that what we need can and will be delivered on the agreed dates.

  • ObservePoint has helped us quickly (within minutes) catch when a process or pathing on the website breaks, which allows us to fix it quickly. Whether technical/dev or analytics issues, without ObservePoint, they could have been undetected for weeks.
