    I think Blueshift is well suited as a CRM. It does a great job handling the customer information that you need, placing it, and displaying it in one concise place. They could do better in regards to being forthcoming with information. Documentation is weak, and depending on who you speak with on the support team, they may have different answers to the problem you're having. In my experience, there are a lot of inconsistencies in how they think about reporting, that someone who's been in marketing for the past 10-years, has to relearn and rethink how we share data for KPIs.

    I find SalesManago to be a good tool for email marketing and automation processes. They live chat service allows fast and direct communication with customers. Website personalisation (tools like pop-ups and browser notification) work fine but I'd like to have a bit more personalisation options to be avalaible to users.

    Pros
    Blueshift
    • Customer Segments + Recommendations Tool - Blueshift and has helped with automating and personalizing our retargeting efforts. The true value of Blueshift was realized when we could launch triggered marketing campaigns targeted to specific segments based on a user's behavior onsite, and deliver relevant personalized content using the AI-based Recommendations tool.
    • Integration with Segment and other apps
    • Retargeting with dynamic content pulled from data feeds / catalogs

    • Segmentation - you can segment people in many ways (e.g using tags, rfm matrices, sales funnels, dynamic segments).
    • Automation flows - using workflows, automation rules, and website automations you can automatically do marketing actions after a trigger and in specific conditions. You have a lot of events, conditions and actions
    • Product Recommendations - this tool allow you to recommend products on your website. Maybe it's not quick to prepare it but the results at the end are awesome
    • RFM Segmentation - this is a great tool to segment and reach people according to their RFM profile

    • Their expansion into the US has not been very successful, and if you are a West Coast customer want training, be prepared to get up at 4 a.m.
    • While their functionality is comparable to competing products there is nothing particularly unique to what they offer
    • Their instructional literature was obviously not produced by people for who English is a first language and they are not particularly English proficient.

    SALESmanago is a pretty big tool (with lots of features), but if you know the principles - everything is easy to find, and easy to understand. Of course there are some settings or funcionalities which needs to be updated but still using SALESmanago is totaly different experience than 5-6 years ago (in a good way)

    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. Social media interconnection is also a step in the right direction that Customer hasn't moved toward
