Adobe Journey Optimizer vs. APSIS Pro

If you need enterprise-level flexibility to organize, design, orchestrate, and execute email communications, then Adobe Journey Optimizer is potentially a very well-suited tool. Sending a high volume of emails is easily accomplished, and targeting either a broad or very targeted audience is also relatively easy. Regardless of your specific circumstances, this "best-in-class" option is worth a look.

Works well, relatively easy to use - but lacks some up-to-date and modern features as well as look and feel. The support provided is OK but not world class. It is too bad as APSIS as a company is quite good at inspiring and providing insights into trends in email marketing.

• We have a pre-designed template and pre-build elements and thus it is quite easy to compose nice looking newsletters.
• Doing split-tests on subject, clicks etc. is quite easy and requires no tech help.
• Imporing new contacts and adding to the list is straight forward.

• It doesn´t keep the last search you sis in the journeys and you have to enter the search parameter every time
• there is a window of time during the day that the audiences give out errors and you can´t see the estimates
• I should be able to select STO in campaigns, not only in journeys
• I should be able to select the email parameters when using campaigns

• The user interface is not good. Too much scrolling and too many menues to navigate. Half of the pages are updated to a "new" look with the rest still being the (really) old design. This badly needs a make-over.
• There is no one-click "send reminder to those who did not open". To send reminders, it is nescessary to build a filter a do a new send using the filter. Such a simple and often repeated task should be automated.
• It is not possible to add a "Why did you leave us?"-page for opt-outs... Really misses this.
• The statistics are too limited and to difficult to use - mostly due to the UI design as described above.

Like I said before some things are very friendly user, But the majority of capabilities are very difficult to access and really understand. That´s why there is a need of big groups in order to work with Adobe Journey Optimizer because a few people not would be able to own and know all the Items.

Each of these products represents a legacy solution that has been replaced by AJO. AJO allows for all of these marketing functions to live within a single platfrom. While AJO has a learning curve that is steeper than working with individual vendors, it does allow for a consolidation of knowledge and the underlying data stack, so eventual efficiencies may be realized over time

MailChimp offers more flexibilty but also seems a bit more complicated to use. We did not use it long enough to really get an idea of the positive and negative.

• We have increases our visibility with our customers by making sure to land in their mailbox regulary with nice looking messages.
