Chose mParticle
We are definitely aware of Amplitude CDP and how they are constantly making updates to their CDP to make it better. If their offerings are a lot better than mParticle's, it might make sense to jump ship to Amplitude since we already use them for Analytics anyway.

I wasn't a part of the decision making process
Chose mParticle
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.
Chose mParticle
vs Segment, mParticle seems a bit fresher (more recently founded) and a better mobile app focus.
Chose mParticle
Great customer service over Segment and really solid UI.

Chose Snowplow
The main advantage of Snowplow Insights, compared to other similar tools in the market, is that Snowplow is able to combine data from more data sources and also enrich that data later on by connecting to other systems in real time. Those capabilities have been a challenge for …
Chose Snowplow
Twilio Segment is a powerful alternative to Snowplow Insights, but ultimately Snowplow Insights is marginally better, but with a largely reduced cost which is extremely important to us.

Do not integrate multiple analytics / customer messaging / download attribution SDKs into your mobile or web apps, duplicating data and risking a fragemented view of the customer. Instead integrate mParticle as a CDP, and configure the necessary integrations which will enable you to progress towards a world of the single-view of the customer. Also works great to import historical data into a newly onboarded/integrated tool.

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

The main advantage of Snowplow Insights, compared to other similar tools in the market, is that Snowplow is able to combine data from more data sources and also enrich that data later on by connecting to other systems in real time. Those capabilities have been a challenge for many other tools in the past. Additionally, the number of out-of-the-box integrations makes Snowplow a very flexible tool.

Return on Investment
  • This might be less of an issue with mParticle, but often times we found ourselves troubleshooting discrepancies between what mParticle showed vs downstream analytics platforms, more so than troubleshooting the issue itself.

  • The main scenario that we live with this program is the response and the good reputation that we have built with this program in each of our events.
  • There are many occasions where we have the obligation to protect all our data, the advantage is that Snowplow Insights has a completely ample storage for our performance.
