ActionIQ vs. SALESmanago

ActionIQ is ideal for a medium and large-sized organization that already has a lot of data stored across existing data warehouses and data lake solutions and is looking for a CDP with refined data models that can extract the key insights, analyse them and create detailed customer profiles for real-time targeting.

I find SalesManago to be a good tool for email marketing and automation processes. They live chat service allows fast and direct communication with customers. Website personalisation (tools like pop-ups and browser notification) work fine but I'd like to have a bit more personalisation options to be avalaible to users.

• Data ingestion, cleansing and unification
• Data activation for paid media campaigns
• Data extraction from data warehouses and data lakes

• The solution is easy to use, once you learn it. Given that the marketing automation software is very complex, they managed to create a user-friendly interface, easy to use even without programming knowledge.
• Educates users and customers - It is impressive how many resources SALESmanago invested in educating customers. We are talking about video tutorials, webinars every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, blog articles, infographics, free eBooks, Marketing Automation Day, events etc.
• Multiple tools integrated into one - it's a habit that you find all the information and tools you need in one place. There are other solutions on the market, but SALESmanago is among the only ones that provides an overview
• 30 day free trial - the advantage is that you do not have to pay first to use the solution. In the 30 day trial you have the opportunity to discover all the secrets of this tool and see if it fits to your business.

• Campaign delivery features especially multichannel orchestration
• More hosting options including offsite
• Better user access and identity management controls

• Their expansion into the US has not been very successful, and if you are a West Coast customer want training, be prepared to get up at 4 a.m.
• While their functionality is comparable to competing products there is nothing particularly unique to what they offer
• Their instructional literature was obviously not produced by people for who English is a first language and they are not particularly English proficient.

SALESmanago is a pretty big tool (with lots of features), but if you know the principles - everything is easy to find, and easy to understand. Of course there are some settings or funcionalities which needs to be updated but still using SALESmanago is totaly different experience than 5-6 years ago (in a good way)

In my opinion, Tealium is a better product for sure, has a much more refined analytics engine but the reason we went for ActionIQ is the better integrations it offers in the ad tech space with the various SSPs and DSPs. We integrate it with LiveRamp and Goofle ads exchange and it works flawlessly. It is also significantly cheaper than Tealium.

If we are talking about ecommerce I think SALESmanago wins for the variety of tools he has. Hubspot clearly is better than SALESmanago on CRM and reporting are area but it doesn't have the same variety of tools such as RFM, Website recommendations, social proofs and so on. The other platforms do other jobs than SM and they don't have a CDP.
