FirstHive vs. Zaius (discontinued)

It is well suited for all B2B and B2C industries to manage customers data and execute inbound campaigns

Optimizely Data Platform is a great tool for teams who look to use open-source tools over tools with white glove service. You do get a dedicated customer success manager and access to their (almost) 24/7 support team via chat, but the real benefits of the platform stand to be unlocked by teams who enjoy getting their hands dirty.

• Loading time
• Ease of integration

• Automation of data from other platforms such as our ERP.

There's so much that needs to be improved and it seems like not much has happened since Optimizely first took over. When Optimizely did take over, they reduced the UX of campaign reporting.

• Creating reports can be difficult and they aren't very visual.
• There is not much control you can have with your imported product catalog. Product filters can be difficult to use.
• Manually importing customers is a more difficult process from when I was using Mailchimp 10 years ago.
• Figuring out how to inject a module onto a page is difficult.
• Figuring out how to get off an email blacklist is near impossible even with ip warming. Very little help here.

Positive - Onboarding was quick and easy. Positive - Access to a Zaius data analyst has been wonderful. Negative - I don't know who our CSM is if we even have one.

We have a home built CRM. From start to finish our implementation was a nightmare loaded with problems that destroyed my initial trust with the platform.

FirstHive is the first software of its kind that I use. It was recommended to me by a colleague who told me he is very happy with it, but he uses it for professional and non-educational purposes (as is my case). Indeed, even at an educational level, it is software that works. It would be helpful to create an educational version with fewer features and a more affordable price.

Oh my goodness, there were many, including:

• Klaviyo
• Salesforce Email Marketing Cloud

• I forgot their name but they are based in the middle of nowhere Pennsylvania.
• Exact Target
• Active Campaign
• Get Response
• Drip
• SendInBlue
• And more I cannot remember. We spent over six months looking at everything.
