"Powerful Blueshift Functionality That Brings Enterprise Features to Hospitality"
5/5
What do you like best about Blueshift?

Blueshift has a lot of functionality. It gives you features that the big guys use for their e-commerce platforms and allows us to provide these features to independent hospitality customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

Blue shift can certainly be overwhelming for your typical marketer coming from a more simple platform like MailChimp. Because of that, there can be a steeper learning curve for onboarding customers to the platform. Once customers get comfortable with the system overall, they can start to explore the additional features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Erica Szalkowski of Blueshift

Thanks so much for the review! I think this is a really helpful characterization of Blueshift (but I am a bit biased!)

"Easy Segmentation and Multichannel Workflows in One Powerful Platform"
4/5
What do you like best about Blueshift?

Blueshift is an all-in-one platform that combines a CDP with a multichannel marketing automation tool. It’s very easy to build focused audience segments and set up multi-channel workflows that support both acquisition and retention campaigns. Blueshift lets you target customers through email, in-app and push notifications, SMS, and pop-ups/banners on websites, and it helps orchestrate consistent experiences across these different channels.

In addition, the flexible underlying data model greatly simplifies integration with multiple data sources. There are also several APIs that enable real-time integrations with external systems, making it possible to create real-time, event-based campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

Blueshift is a very good product overall, but there are a few areas that could be improved. For example, the website pop-ups/banner management isn’t very easy to configure. Also, the role and permission management feels limited when you need to manage different brands within the same tenant, although there are workarounds to address this.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

While the platform is powerful, the initial setup can be a bit overwhelming due to the range of features and integrations. It would be helpful to have more guided onboarding tutorials or live walkthroughs to speed up the learning curve for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Positive Experience with Automation and CDP Tools"
5/5
What do you like best about Blueshift?

The tool excels in its ability to integrate customer data across multiple channels, providing a unified view of each user. This data collection allows companies to create personalized and targeted marketing campaigns. In addition, Blueshift's predictive intelligence and automation capabilities enable marketers to engage customers in real-time with relevant content, which can improve the customer experience and drive conversions. Its analytics also make it easier to track campaign performance and make data-driven decisions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

Complexity: For small or under-resourced companies, the complexity of some processes can be overwhelming.

Cost: The price of integration can be off-putting, as it is still a new and unfamiliar tool. This can condition certain companies.

Learning curve: Especially for customers who need to make a switch from one tool to another, or are new to CDP and automation tools, it can be overwhelming and impractical.

Customization: While there are many off-the-shelf templates, it may not be as flexible for certain niches, who need certain campaigns based on their data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible and easy to use marketing automation platform"
4/5
What do you like best about Blueshift?

Onboarding and support team are top notch. They also take feedback seriously and improve product directly from user experience.

The platform is relatively easy to use with flexible features to adapt to any number of needs from static list sends to AWS integrations and API feeds.

Implementation is straight forward as long as you have clean data from your system, if you are dealing with bad product data it may take a second to properly integrate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Blueshift?

The two biggest downsides to Blueshift are the reporting - it would be nice to be able to filter and segement reports based on use attributes directly in the platform. The other issue that has popped up is when exporting your data into a CSV or Excel it lumps all the customer attirubtes into a large data blob that is difficult to parse.
