    Dotdigital EMEA Limited
    DotDigital has a drag-and-drop email builder and many good templates. Using automation, I was able to send out emails with ease. During the onboarding process, you will also be able to speak with real people. We use it to create modern and engaging emails for customers, whether abandoned cart or post-purchase. It has excellent reporting modules, but it lacks a few fundamentals, which can be frustrating. As a whole, the partnership has been a success so far.

    There is genuinely not a lot to dislike about the application. Maybe it's due to legacy implementations and updates, but sometimes the request for service from the suppliers can take too long and is drawn out. IFS Customer Engagement is helping us to make sure we're able to get the right parts to the right resources with appropriate skills for each request. This saves time on resources in planning and optimization of routes. IFS has also allowed connecting to supplier APIs to be able to do real-time stock checks and order to enable us to reduce stock levels to the minimum levels whilst still hitting key targets.

    Usability
    Dotdigital EMEA Limited
    DotDigital is not difficult to use, however, the user interface could use some optimization. There are certain elements that can be challenging to find, and the menus are not always intuitive. However, the tool makes up for that with easy to use features, like creating segments, and allowing many rules to specify these particular groups.

    IFS Customer Engagement allows efficient manufacturing reporting for the business to select whether to use standard/default reporting or actual reporting or combined reporting. Since the system has business logic to look through the defined rules, there is minimum manual intervention.

    Return on Investment
    Dotdigital EMEA Limited
    • Maintenance costs due to integration limits.
    • API tiers (now formalized in the documentation) were discovered after the initial purchase, so there are more recurring costs.
    • In general, a raise of costs in the IT compartment, while it can benefit marketing.
