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.

If you need a single place where you can handle all the third party pixels, this is a well-suited platform. As well as if you want to keep the deployment independent from all other (and more complex) deployments driven by IT. If you need a pixel to be fired not just when the page loads, but based on user actions, you should use the events and that's pretty complex to handle.

  • Creating new pixels is very easy, as well as organizing all of them, handling prioritization between different partners' pixels.
  • Defining the perimeters and constraints where the pixels need to be fired is a breeze.
  • Deploying the container and keeping track of all the modification is very well done.
  • The configuration of the deduplication rule is pretty flexible.

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

  • Reports. Tag Commander lacks in term of reports of what's happening. There is an additional module called Attribution Management System that gives you a lot of insights, but more basic reports to understand what has been fired will be useful.
  • Support. Tag Commander support is very low responsive. It took several days to have the first feedback and generally, it takes a lot of emails to get what you need.
  • Deduplication engine flexibility. The engine is there and it works pretty well, until you have a slightly different need. In that case you need to implement something custom in terms of implementation, reports, etc. A more flexible approach would be useful.

As I mentioned earlier, there are many reasons such as preparing a unified customer profile so you can easily evaluate your customers, generating segments or audiences for similar types of customers based on city, country, or attributes, and targeting them for campaigns. You can also create individual personalized journeys based on the data available at the customer level.

Usability

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?

Its my favorite tool in the entire Adobe Experience Platform ecosystem. I thought that its important to be connected with your customers and the best way to do it its to have a really good description to reveal what they like and prefer, that's the most important thing, so that's why I like Adobe Real-Time CDP

  • It let us deploy new pixels/fixes to pixels independently from the IT deployment process.
  • It let us easily turn on/off and sort the pixel execution based on partners' priority, assuring better data tracking for more important partners.
  • It provides out of the box pixel implementation for tons of partners, but really often we need to rewrite the pixel from scratch as they're not up to date.
