Antavo AI Loyalty Cloud vs. Open Loyalty

If you are looking for a platform to host and run your loyalty program through, Antavo is the best out there. The mechanics and customer journey options available with front end support is unmatched. The options for digital wallet for wallet messaging has allowed for a new channel for customer relationships

The scenario where Open Loyalty is better suited is with a customer that has one and only one e-commerce site or equivalent. Many customers think it would be easy to customize Open Loyalty for multiple companies, using only one installation. This is difficult to Open Loyalty since different companies will have different rules, levels of rewards, etc, and that's not easily configured on Open Loyalty. So, the price of OpenLoyalty for third-world countries is a little steep, making its acquisition possible only to large companies.

• The onboarding process could have been a bit better with some delays and some integrations taking longer than expected
• Not enough engagement after the initial launch of the loyalty program for a few months (it got better in the end).

• Many customers expect Open Loyalty to have an e-commerce interface. Maybe they could build a barebones interface to satisfy the rare customer that still doesn't have a CRM o ERP or equivalent in place

Some areas, such as workflow configuration, can be difficult to load. We would love to see more B2B-specific enhancements

Customer support is not well organised and you can make many efforts to get the resolution. For email or phone support you have to have the patience to deal with the support team, also if you submit a query the responding time is usually high.

The integration between Antavo and Bloomreach is out of the box.

Open Loyalty is way more powerful than Tango Card. Zoho CRM doesn't really stack up against OL, since it's too generic. The area where we think Open Loyalty would beat other products is scalability and customization. Open Loyalty has been tried on really large customers and the database never felt sluggish nor the web interface or the web services.
