Chose Audience Republic

Chose Braze
Braze offers a better service for the type of needs my company has. I was skeptical as it is also a lot cheaper than the other platforms that I have used in the past – but have not found any issues or hindrances to my work. Overall, our ROI is much, much higher using Braze.

Audience Republic is good for data acquisition using their gamified competitions, but I think that's about the only point of difference it has from Braze, Mailchimp or Campaign Monitor. While they promise to allow you to easily segment data from ticketing outlets, in my opinion, this is a blatant falsehood. In my experience, excuses come through thick and fast from the customer service team, but nothing has been resolved in the 2.5 years of using them.

If you're looking for a reliable, automated system to run customer feedback programme like the NPS, Braze offers possibly the best platform to operate such kind of a campaign. In addition, if you are looking to build email campaigns for existing clients with the goal of retention or relationship-building, Braze offers much better email delivery and engagement rates.

Canvas feature has been really good for creating customer journey paths and long-term messaging campaigns.
They have been addressing feature requests to continue to improve the Canvas feature. One of the simplest but most-handy features is allowing Delay steps wait for a very specific date on a calendar -- so you can plan seasonal campaigns or when you have evergreen-style drip campaigns it allows for avoiding public holidays/etc.
The catalog feature provides a lot of use-cases and flexibility for personalizing comms or customizing comms for whitelabeled versions of our standard comms (for our B2B2C scenarios).
We use the catalog as a repository of our B2B2C brand info, messaging customization - it basically allows us to offer a whitelabeled configurable version of our optimized automated in-life comms in the branding of our b2b customers.

Enabling GIF/videos to be directly uploaded on to Braze's platform
Easier way of creating canvases; right now it is too complex for someone new who is starting off in the company to understand what things do and where things are
Ability to track duplicate user profiles within the entire audience segment
Automated deduplicating email addresses/phone numbers in each targeting segment; right now it's done manually after extracting csv files

We are on a mission for an omnichannel experience for our customers and are already making good progress with Braze able to fully support and optimise this

It's easy enough to use, even for a beginner, but I think the usability is dampened by the terrible dynamics of the platform and, in my experience, how they create more manual labour and legwork instead of the optimisation they promise.

From my experience thus far, Braze is able to deeply integrate into a variety of tools and I haven't found a use case where Braze cannot offer a solution to an integration requirement. Integrations have been very easy to setup and developers have been able to manage and upgrade these seamlessly.

Very responsive and helpful on simple questions, but not great other than that. They do not have a way for the customer/user to escalate a ticket. You have to contact your rep and in some cases, they don't respond within 24 hours so you have no idea if they have escalated it. There is no phone number for an urgent issue - you have to rely on email
It's really well explained, there are lots of documentation about all topics. When we want to perform in a specific area, there are always a dedicated path. For each new feature, there is always some videos explaining the purpose and the new functionalities. Also I used to do the certification which allows me to show my achievements in my business environment.

Braze is a cross-channel and data-driven tool. It is much more intuitive and easier to use. It supports a high volume of sending. Braze team provides excellent follow-up and support, and we are part of a large community of clients who share knowledge and help.

Besides from the gamified competitions to attain data to then market to, literally nothing that I couldn't get from a competitor.
Audience Republic lie to us about how much their services cost. They were charging us 0.0053c per email send (and they upped this price without telling us one month), and a peer told me they were paying 0.0015c per send. In my opinion, they are not trustworthy.
