  • Segment has enabled us to get a full view of our front end activity, join it to our back-end activity, and get full visibility into our funnels and user activity.
  • Segment lets us send events to ad tools with a full audit trail so all the numbers line up.
  • Segment also brings data from other sources into our data warehouse, saving our data engineering time from building commodity connectors.

  • Segment has allowed us to get data flowing with minimal issues. They had almost every product we use in their library today.
  • I can't really think of an example where it's had any negative impact.

  • Very positive - Comprehensive marketing and data analytics, good event tracking, very easy to find and track conversion rates.
  • Negative - Segment can be quite a bit expensive, especially as MTU grows, and can take quite a bit of time to pay off.
  • Positive - Easy to integrate into all platforms, applications, and programs that have some sort of end-users, turns Segment into an encompassing platform for tracking all types of data analytics.

  • Event tracking lets you take ownership of your own data, which in part makes it easy to craft metrics and do deep dives to see how your product is working. This has a huge ROI, because without metrics you're basically flying blind.
  • You can also use Segment's event tracking to fuel your experimentation and AB testing strategies. AB testing is the best way to ship features in a tech product with confidence that you're making a positive impact.

  • Saved a ton of time for setting up user tracking
  • Provided user data and tracking visibility to the entire team by turning on the Mixpanel integration - this only took a week or so
  • It does get hard to manage all of your events in a clean spreadsheet - you must have 1 person who leads this initiative so that you keep track of events
