If you are utilizing mobile push, email, or SMS for marketing reasons, Amazon Pinpoint is amazing. If you are utilizing Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud as your backend system, then the support all can come from one place, which makes troubleshooting easier. We use Amazon Pinpoint in order to send billions of emails. Most notable is the use for password reset.

Appsee
Appsee was a great choice and addition before their struggle with Apple over user screen recording. Now that that's gone, its insights are rather basic and not worth the price point. This would be a perfect analytics platform for a company looking to increase its user experience, new on-boarding, or going through a redesign to see user activity and reactions, but not anymore.

Appsee
  • The user screen recording was quickly shut down on Apple devices after about a week of us using Appsee. Now it's just basic boxes which aren't nearly as helpful or insightful in bettering our user experience. If we would have known this would happen, or that Appsee didn't have that feature, we wouldn't have gone with them.
  • No integration with Branch (the world's best and probably biggest attribution platform).

Amazon Pinpoint is way easier to use than Adobe Campaign and cheaper than Salesforce. Great solution with easy AWS integration for a non-beatable price. When you think about the integration that you need to use with a third-party application and all the backend software installs, you can see why being able to use the AWS API to make calls to Amazon Pinpoint directly would be a way more feasible solution if you're using Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud already.

Appsee
Appsee set itself apart from competitors with the user screen recording, but since that is no longer a good feature on iOS, it makes Appsee's competitive advantage obsolete. Its data analytics, funnels, and crash reporting are relatively basic or haven't lead to any breakthroughs. I would stay away from Appsee, save your money, and go for a platform like Mixpanel if possible, which has analytics, attribution, and engagement for the same if not cheaper price.
