Considered Both Products
Blueshift
Chose Blueshift
Blueshift's capability with events and segmentation is unmatched - with other CDPs, we have not been able to replicate the ability to create an event based on customer behavior that encapsulates a payload of information regarding that particular action.
Chose Blueshift
Blueshift is the best platform I have worked with.
Chose Blueshift
I feel that Blueshift has a ways to go before they get near some of the upper-tier ESPs out there that drive successes and are willing to be involved in the everyday marketing strategy.

There are a lot of pieces that you have to get in addition to Blueshift.
Chose Blueshift
  • Very precise segmenting/excluding conditions
  • Predictive score
  • Recommendation of product to users based on their behavior
Chose Blueshift
Customer has a better UX/UI but Blueshift's capabilities are far stronger. The price is also more interesting considering what it does. Blueshift doesn't have certain integrations that are useful for startups (like Slack) but it's something that they should be having soon. …
mParticle
Chose mParticle
We are definitely aware of Amplitude CDP and how they are constantly making updates to their CDP to make it better. If their offerings are a lot better than mParticle's, it might make sense to jump ship to Amplitude since we already use them for Analytics anyway.
Chose mParticle
I wasn't a part of the decision making process
Chose mParticle
mParticle has a bigger catalog of services you can interface with and provides a more complete check for data integrity. It also allows you to use any analytics solution.
Chose mParticle
vs Segment, mParticle seems a bit fresher (more recently founded) and a better mobile app focus.
Chose mParticle
Great customer service over Segment and really solid UI.

Likelihood to Recommend
Blueshift is a great AI-based platform for travel companies that would like to retarget users as the platform is able to look at last searched dates, location, and hotel/ room type.

Do not integrate multiple analytics / customer messaging / download attribution SDKs into your mobile or web apps, duplicating data and risking a fragemented view of the customer. Instead integrate mParticle as a CDP, and configure the necessary integrations which will enable you to progress towards a world of the single-view of the customer. Also works great to import historical data into a newly onboarded/integrated tool.

We're not in the mood to start this process over at this time. A lot of hard work went into it.

It's a great tool for beginners but not scalable to advance use cases. It's not it's a fault in our case, because any platform is as good as the data collected

Return on Investment
  • Better ROI with more precise targeting
  • More adapted to pressure
  • Long to put in place however so it's taking time so we've potentially lost potential customers
Read full review
  • This might be less of an issue with mParticle, but often times we found ourselves troubleshooting discrepancies between what mParticle showed vs downstream analytics platforms, more so than troubleshooting the issue itself.
