    BounceX is well suited if you want to boost list/customer base growth, but a tricky aspect of it for me is that I don't know the benefit smaller companies would get from BounceX to accelerate growth without having an existing customer base.

    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.

    Cons
    Wunderkind
    • Support is awful
    • Management will not work with you to make things right
    • Tool is buggy. It went down for 50 hours during our Black Friday sale resulting in substantial amount of lost revenue.

    • Automation of data from other platforms such as our ERP.
    • The approval process needs work. I should be able to flag fields that have issues and give users feedback if a product is rejected.

    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.

    Beware if you buy from them you are committed for a year. It is too expensive for the offering and they offer no solutions for you to manage the process/tool at a discounted rate. Will not renew my contract, that’s for sure.

    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.

    We've used both Emarsys and Klaviyo as our ESP, while using Wunderkind to handle email/SMS acquisition and abandonment emails. Wunderkind has proven to be able to capture more emails and send more behavioral emails with the contact matching technology.

    Oh my goodness, there were many, including:
    • Klaviyo
    • Salesforce Email Marketing Cloud
    • Bronto
    • Marapost (the worst experience we ever had. We used them for the longest year on earth).
    • Silverpop (IBM)
    • 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.
