Drawbridge (discontinued) vs. Epsilon PeopleCloud vs. mParticle

It is well suited for small, targeted advertisements. I see this happening on a large scale and it is difficult to keep departments/groups/units separate from the individual, so incorrect, inappropriate, or just wrong recommendations are made all the time. The scale of your project I think determines whether this will be useful. A team under ~30/40 people, should work great. Larger than that and wires will be crossed, quality will plummet, and expectations will not be met.

Appropriate for large organizations who want customization in their emails. The tool - while intuitive if you have previous background - is hefty and large in scope of capabilities. It's great for organizations who have multiple users and shows the name of person who last made changes. The reporting is really good - but may be a bit overwhelming for organizations who don't need a lot of detailed information

If you can't trust the data you get into your customer journey service or user behavior analysis tool, mParticle can make a difference quickly. We used it to great success getting from untrustworthy data to reliable data in no time. If you already have a great data pipeline or use a user behavior analysis tool that includes checks for ensuring the trustworthiness of data, you might not need mParticle. If you have a lot of external or internal services you need to connect to your customer data, then mParticle is definitely worth looking at.

• tracks browsing habits
• makes personalized recommendations
• tracks online activity

• Fairly intuitive if you have previous experience with high-end email tools.
• The training opportunities are good - they offer both online and/or live training.
• The support we receive is very good.
• The reporting feature is good - a lot of detailed information.

Incentivized

• Collect customer data from multiple sources.
• Integrated with wide breadth of vendors and verticals.
• Helps track unregistered user data into registered user data.

Incentivized

• well, it's tracking you, so that's a problem
• IoT - connected to all smart devices
• user interface is only for advanced users
• can give incorrect and inappropriate links for setting
• difficult to control broad settings
• terrible customer support (what do you expect from LinkedIN)

Incentivized

• The tool could be improved to "remember" where you last left off (specific user). Having to constantly retrace steps if you get logged out is annoying.
• Hitting the "back" arrow sends you back to a main section, when it should send you back to where you previously were.
• It would be nice to see performance reports available within the campaign itself, as well as within the reporting section.
• Ability to NOT be able to change anything in a campaign after it has launched. This has happened multiple times. We usually copy a previous campaign to start a new one but often, we end up changing content on the version we are copying from -- this is very annoying and dangerous.

Incentivized

• Support - often times it feels like they're trying to create a sales opportunity rather than actually provide support - whether it's technical or non-technical.
• Some connection setups are not as consistent with respect to the procedure of setting up the connection, e.g. setting user identities in Braze.
• Audiences...definitely not as robust as Amplitude

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

Incentivized

Superb technical support, always going the extra mile to understand your problem and work towards solutions. Specifically, the team are happy to jump on Zoom to troubleshoot the problem.

In hindsight, I wish we had picked any of the other options. Drawbridge is a letdown in cost, user ability, quality of service, and support. Though I have limited experience with the other software mentioned, they surely would not have been such a letdown - in so many areas, as Drawbridge is.

While both Epsilon Agility Harmony and Oracle Responsys are great for larger organizations that send a lot of emails, I think Epsilon Agility Harmony is more robust than Responsys and is easier to use. It is significantly more complex than HubSpot and requires previous knowledge of using an email tool that has content blocks and or dynamic content.

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.

Incentivized

• Troubleshooting
• no ROI as too much troubleshooting goes into each project
• did not synchronize teams' needs
• poor user interface
• waste of time

Incentivized

• Increased email production = more communication to customers.
• Better reporting = determine areas for improvement or scale up efforts.
• Working on getting our triggered emails optimized - there's a great opportunity for this with this tool.

Incentivized

• Negative: Quite a lot overlaps with the work being done on the Data Warehouse as a CDP.
• Positive: Able to connect to 3rd party tools with small effort (Appsflyer).
