Klaviyo vs. Meiro CDP

Klaviyo is a leader in the space, but I might recommend it to a colleague for its price point. There are other options that are more affordable and provide most of the tools Klaviyo offers. I also think it can be complicated to use for a new user.

- personalization (The platform helps us with execution of several triggers - abandoned shopping cart, shopping intention etc. We are not bounded by capability of platform - anything can be executed on our own.) - CDP + ETL (Platform offers two products Meiro Integrations and Meiro Business Explorer - first one is sort of ETL tool using which, we can create custom data pipelines, connect to various data sources, build own connectors and schedule very complicated jobs. Second tool is more related to creating the custom segments, schedule regular export to another marketing platforms. I like how these two worlds are split. It just make sense to work with it.) - predictive modelling (There is huge potential for data engineering and data science teams to fully operate the platform - running CLV models, recommendation engines, creating complicated data pipelines from various data sources bringing them on one place. I thing about Meiro as amazing execution platform for such teams - running CLV modelling on data marts and use outputs in Meiro.) - platform enabling collaborative work (Platform offers various departments an environemnt, where they can work productively.)

• Klaviyo's template builder is very intuitive yet straightforward enough that an inexperienced user can catch on quickly.
• Their flow builder is also quite intuitive and allows us to build intricate, highly targeted flows.
• I appreciate their built-in compliance warnings & checks as they apply to opt-out methods, SMS compliance, and overall deliverability.

• By being able to include segmentation operations within our customer management, it is no longer necessary to opt for the use of GDPR software, as Meiro and its end-to-end solution system is enough to cover the entire data matching quota, to properly define which salesperson is best suited to each customer (that's why we use this tool).

• Needs more visible critical notifications as we once exceeded our monthly email limit right during the Black Friday campaign. The notification was not visible enough for us to catch it on time, as a result, some emails scheduled to be sent over the weekend were never sent
• Better library of dynamic values available for use inside emails

• We do not agree with the derogatory opinion about our experience using Meiro, as the service proved to maintain a quite positive quality level, so we are satisfied with the investment made in the use of Meiro and with the results, it has shown us when modeling information.

Klaviyo is simply a great solution for e-com email marketing & customer relationship management:

1. User journey visibility: We can see our clients' customers on their individual user journeys (open email, site visits) to better understand and accommodate your customers.
2. Flow automation: Creating automated emails that follow up with new leads, those who abandoned carts, purchased.
3. Email design: So easy to use, and more friendly than some other visual builders that we've used.
4. Metrics visibility: We can see our clients' metrics very easily and adjust efforts accordingly.

The only reason why I did not give it a 10/10 is that it cannot distinguish purchases that came through subscription recharges instead of purchases that were driven directly by email sends. Other than that, the automation qualities, design features, and segmentation options make this an incredible email platform, and I am very happy with it

They also have a wide variety of articles that cover must issues in a very clear manner that will get you out of a predicament really fast.

Klaviyo's ability to really tackle the entire marketing contact ecosystem on one platform is what really won us over. The price for everything was competitive, not necessarily the cheapest but competitive, and the ability to see that data flow from every interaction was what was crucial to us. Additionally, Klaviyo is the core of our B2C business. We were not focused on anything other than how we interact with customers directly, and Klaviyo was a direct win for us. The one negative is Klaviyo's ability to work with our B2B side of our business, because it doesn't integrate with platforms like HubSpot. That is a massive downside, but the upside justified the investment.

We started with Meiro. There was nothing here previously.

• Klaviyo brought our email channel to the top performing channel over Paid Ads several times (according to G Analytics), before Klaviyo Paid Ads were always top and the email channel struggled to even stay in 2nd place.
• Klaviyo did cost quite a bit more than our old email platform but the ROI was much higher so it paid for itself.
• Klaviyo implemented tools that allowed us to have a higher customer satisfaction with things like letting customers choose to receive less emails instead of unsubscribing.
