mParticle vs. TransUnion TruAudience

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.

Well suited to campaigns and smaller task teams of less than 100. For these sizes, the group conversations work well, and the ability to search conversations and multimedia is perfect for finding previous information. For larger groups, information could very easily get lost, and requires a break-up into groups that would defeat the purpose of such a group chat.

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

• Populating your library with new tags is simple whether you're duplicating an existing tag or creating an entirely new one.
• Creating the firing conditions for a tag.
• Adding users to different groups with limited or full admin permissions.
• If you know JavaScript, you shouldn't have an issue with assigning values to the proper variables once your data layer is set up for each page and/or action.

• 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

• Placing quotes around variable names in the Tag Attributes, but not in the Event Handlers has caused me to mess up more than once.
• Being able to search the account for all instances of certain text would be very helpful (e.g., search for s.eVar30 to find all places where I set that SiteCatalyst variable).

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

Because of all of the previous benefits that I mentioned, GM has mandated that any DSP that we use for their campaigns must be integrated with BrightTag. Therefore we will have to use BrightTag for all future GM business

Based on the features and current usage. It shows some buggy pages plus the service and support is really very slow. The updates are not regular and company needs to work on that. The usability is good and reporting of tags is accurate which is the best part. The pricing of the product is good and can be used by organizations of all sizes.

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.

Support is really slow and it takes days to resolve an issue. Plus we have to inquire regularly for the status of resolution. Company should definitely work towards that

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.

Most of the tag solutions I've worked with were not nearly as robust. Most systems will let you load another tag not directly placed on the site, but none provide all the different firing levers that BT does

• 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).

• Wonderful for ensuring we meet our logistical and record-keeping requirements
• Negative at being the best at quality-of-life options, like specific muting
• Great at allowing a casual work environment in having chats for memes, pets, etc.
