"Powerful platform for 1:1 Customer Marketing "

What do you like best about Blueshift?

The flexibility of this platform is unmatched. I vetted over ten different customer data platforms and CRM tools for marketing automation before making our decision, and Blueshift was the only one that would fit our unique business model. Blueshift was the only platform that we knew could scale with our business while providing us with the level of insight we have been searching for when it comes to email marketing.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

There have been occasional issues with the UI. However they are constantly improving the platform and releasing new updates so I don't anticipate this to be ongoing.

What problems is Blueshift solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Blueshift as our primary communication tool for email and push notifications. This is by far the most nimble platform we have used regarding the setup and launch of lifecycle campaigns for our customers. We now have lifetime data directly tied to our marketing channels allowing us to segment our customer base like never before.

"Best up an coming CDP/ESP"

What do you like best about Blueshift?

Blueshift allows me to understand my customers in a way most other platforms do not. The insights I am able to glean and then turn around action within the platform give me the opportunity to scale in a way that other platforms do not.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

I've work with Blueshift now at two companies and one of the things I appreciate is their flexibility and willing to innovate the product to meet my companies needs. If there is something we dislike or find missing they are always more than willing to jump in and add it to the roadmap or do custom work to match our business needs.

What problems is Blueshift solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are a small team with limited resources. Blueshift is allowing us to automate campaigns based on data. There algorithm allows us to provide better product recommendations and learn more about customers over time. I look at them as a bit of a secret weapon giving us an unfair competitive advantage.

I love the recommendation feature and use it on a daily basis. it provides me with the flexibility I need to give the right products to the right users.

The main problem is getting into the inbox or users at the right time for them. this is achieved with Blueshift's time optimization feature which by ways of magic (AI) determines what is the best time for a user to most likely to open an email and delivers it to them!

"Blueshift experience"

What do you like best about Blueshift?

I really like the fact it is a user friendly platform that's intuitive. There are some cool features that save time such as the campaign section. I like the way you can build detailed segments based on a wide range of factors such as revenue spend, location and demographics.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

Certain new terms can be confusing such as mixin. Lots of people unfamiliar with marketing struggle to understand these terms. Perhaps some a dictionary of terms could help with this.

Recommendations to others considering Blueshift:

A great system as it allows for collaboration between marketing, BI and support. The fact you can build segments with very little restrictions allows for lots of possibilities including better customer engagement and increase in revenue.

What problems is Blueshift solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was assisting the support team and training new hires building segments and setting up campaigns

"Best marketing platform to create personalized campaigns across channels"

What do you like best about Blueshift?

We can ingest data from any source. Blueshift handles the dirty work of making sense of it. This makes my day-to-day a whole lot easier. Additionally, we can build very specific segments that we want to target across our campaigns. We can easily set them up and be confident everything is performing correctly. We have an all in one platform that makes it easy for our team to build and test any component of our emails and website content. We save a lot of time by removing repetitive tasks and waiting for support from our technical teams.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

The UI could use some improving, but I have been told this is coming soon. The platform can be overwhelming when first start out because there are so many different capabilities and tools. I recommend taking a step back and looking at what campaigns are you trying to launch and the core objectives . That way you can build out accordingly

What problems is Blueshift solving and how is that benefiting you?

Engage and communicate with customers across a variety of different channels. The ability to collect data from our website, marketing channels, and CRM - and make use of it. We had heavy reliance on technical teams to pull the data we needed. Now we can do it ourselves and actually build segments and send relevant messages to each of these audiences. We've become a lot more efficient with Blueshift.

Segmentation is much easier, as is maintaining recurring mailings.

The ability to centralize our data to create personalized experiences across multiple platforms: email, SMS, website and beyond.

Historically, Blueshift was not on par with some of the other company's reporting capabilities. HOWEVER, with the new release, Blueshift has great reporting and even some nice notification capability so I can easily keep my stakeholders in the loop on our programs.

The benefits:

- Centralize data
