    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.

    Where you are looking for agility and product placement - this is a great product. We were able to move $750k in product in a month due to the pure agility in offering more targetted discounts to users at the right moment. If you use the software correctly - this is like giving your core website experience steriods to offer users the right products at the right time. This shouldn't, however, replace comprehensive funnel testing. Think of it more like hyper offer-management service

    • BlueConic's technology and interface is second to none. They excel at taking potentially difficult tasks and making them easy for users to accomplish without having to stretch the platform's limits or reach out to customer support.
    • The way BlueConic integrates with websites almost seems like magic; by placing a single tag you're able to track almost everything and deploy website personalization.
    • BlueConic releases frequent updates to the platform, like new integrations to other platforms and different tools for tracking data.

    Cons
    Adobe
    • 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

    • They should have the ability to port data beyond O&O properties. This is likely more complex than I make it seem, but a deal w/ a DMP to be able to do so would likely solve the issue.
    • Could have some more "out of the box" APIs.
    • WOuld be great if they had in-house consultants that could come and help set-up best practices with your other existing partnerships (this would be a HUGE ask though; places like Salesforce charge thousands for such services).

    It helps faster deal cycles, higher win rated and a lot better prioritisation of leads. The churn rate is low this leads to a higher lifetime value. All decisions are now impacted with the real time data provided by Adobe Real-Time Customer Data Platform. It is very useful in increasing average revenue per customer hence this rating is well justified for the product

    Usability
    Adobe
    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?

    I think without a bit of training and knowledge it would be hard to walk right into a role or a task inside of BlueConic - it is kind of hard to comprehend everything that is available and all of the options. The language inside of BlueConic is also very different than other things in the industry, so it was hard to understand what it would line up with.

    Real time access of data Very popular so no need of marketing Customer profiles are updated immediately and easy to access multiple customer data Apt for both business to customers and business to business accounts Maintains strong focus on customer growth and standard profiles Privacy and confidentiality is better when compared to other customer data profile softwares

    BlueConic is more lightweight and allows for more unique experiences at the same time. Again - this isn't meant to perfect the core UX of your site, but sit on top to deliver unique experiences to control offer management and close rates.
