"Reasonable tool for segmentation and journey build"

3.5/5

What do you like best about HCL Unica?

Easy language to use, straightforward tips and UI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HCL Unica?

Not easy to seamlessly connect to output channels platforms Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HCL Unica solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm solving customer selection problems. Some more tricky criteria have to be built using raw SQL, which adds a challenge. It is easy to do the selection, though, profile the data if unsure, re-use the flowcharts and tweak the output to your liking. Scheduling and automation features are definitely an advantage.
