Considered Both Products
Braze
Chose Braze
Easier than the big ones and more robust and than the small ones. Braze seems to be a great fit for teams that need to move fast, cannot spend a lot of time in certifications and training and are able to adapt to innovation. As for pricing, Braze has different pricing depending …
Chose Braze
I think Braze is the strongest currently. I found Emarsys to be very difficult to navigate and clunky. Ometria I found to be a good platform, however, more difficult to scale. My role using Ometria was more integration focused so had more exposure to the challenges with …
Chose Braze
Braze is easy to use and offers excellent modern functionalities, making it ideal for contemporary marketing. The training support and implementation support provided by Braze are also good. In terms of mobile-friendly email creation and personalisation, Braze has stood out. …
Chose Braze
Userback does not have mobile SDKs and Instabug cannot do property level filtering for events. So both of these are limited in getting the right message to our users at the right time. In addition to this, Braze allows us to filter by audience properties, so we can reach out to …
Chose Braze
Braze was built with mobile at its core, offering strong support for push, in-app messaging, and mobile SDKs ideal for app-driven businesses. Iterable, while solid in email and web, is generally less mobile-native by comparison
Chose Braze
Unlike MailChimp, Braze goes beyond just email and SMS as communication channels. With communication channels like push notification, in-app message, and content card, Braze is clearly a superior platform for customer engagement. Also, Braze offers more options for dynamic …
Chose Braze
I think Braze is best for app-first companies. We selected Braze for its ease of use and robust feature suite.
Chose Braze
Mailchimp is fine for bulk email and some light automation, but it still centers on email; push or in-app support feels tacked on, and new segments update only after hours. Braze gives us email, push, SMS, in-app, and web all native, with data streaming in real time, so …
Chose Braze
pricing structure is better for a growing company - features are similar (to cio at least)
Chose Braze
I don't remember the names, but we used at least two others before we switched to Braze, and they were all inferior.
Chose Braze
Braze is superior top Iterable, full stop. Their partner integrations gives us more freedom to choose the vendor that fits our company the best, not forcing us to choose the one vendor that's compatible or resigning to having siloed data. Also, the Braze team goes the extra …
Chose Braze
Active Campaign is not in the list, but in general, it is significantly less powerful and requires a subscription and add-on pricing structure, which is not good for a start-up in a scale-up phase. Braze is well-suited for long-term growth and scaling from a small to a large …
Chose Braze
I wasn't part of the decision-making process for selecting Braze, since I joined the company after Braze was already "integrated" with our company. I'd still say that Braze would me my 1st choice compared to other tools that I used in the past.
Chose Braze
Braze is by far the most user friendly tool. The frequency and usability of the super regular product releases they roll out really sets them apart in a stale marketplace historically dominated by Salesforce, Adobe and other big players. They think App first - critical in the …
Chose Braze
It was more complicated on Salesforce to create personalized and customized campaigns. Braze is a platform that has it all.
Chose Braze
Feels less clunky, easier to navigate, equally stacked on features that matter. May have some ways of working that are different from peer solutions, but trades speed and reliance over inefficiently designed or risky solutions.
Chose Braze
Acoustic was becoming too expensive and we had email and SMS with separate providers so we were looking for a way to cut costs and merge into one provider.
Both Acoustic and Attentive were becoming very expensive as well and Braze provided all the functionalities that we were …
Chose Braze
Braze has many features that these tools don't, like a heatmap, a catalogue, the ability to create tons of attributes, and easy-to-use template features.
Chose Braze
salesforce is better suited for the sales funnnel or for B2B rather than B2C so in this case Braze already stacks up great as a wonderful B2C all-rounder product. Mailchimp, firebase and others ive used are gragmented as they all offer different features and are not a ONE …
Chose Braze
I don't have a lot of other experience using software other than Braze. However the product has not given me much need to look elsewhere for another vendor and I am generally very happy with it for my use.
Chose Braze
Braze is much more real-time, has an updated interface, and offers in-app communication, unlike SFMC. The only downside is that Liquid isn't quite as powerful as AMPscript.
Chose Braze
Braze feature for ecommerce retail brands is better and the readyto use usecases are a big support
Chose Braze
Braze seems to work better at scale. And is more reliable. Has some more functionality. But as always, is not perfect.
Trumpia
Chose Trumpia
Trumpia provides the best customer support in the industry.
Chose Trumpia
We have only used Trumpia since we began sending out promotional text messages back in 2016. We have been very happy with Trumpia therefore we have not had to explore any other providers. The only other option that we may explore in the future is sending out promotional texts …

Likelihood to Recommend
Its really well suited to brands with a mobile app. And from what I can glean from the features my org isn't able to take advantage of, its best suited for: - B2C brands that use social media - ecommerce (i.e. CPG) Otherwise, I am not convinced it is the tool I would recommend for users that do not have a mobile app. You're not getting most of the value from it.

Trumpia allows our clients to pick from simple features such as sending a message to many but also allows for more complex messaging through collecting data and data sets to separate departments. The ability to target the audience based on the filters has been very valuable for our customers to get the most out of the platform.

  • Trumpia is very user-friendly and easy to use. I can have a text sent up to a large list within 15 minutes.
  • It is very easy to pull text opt ins and opt outs from Trumpia so we can ensure we are always staying on top of those.
  • Trumpia is very cost-effective if you are sending only 1-2 texts per month.

Cons
  • Enabling GIF/videos to be directly uploaded on to Braze's platform
  • Easier way of creating canvases; right now it is too complex for someone new who is starting off in the company to understand what things do and where things are
  • Ability to track duplicate user profiles within the entire audience segment
  • Automated deduplicating email addresses/phone numbers in each targeting segment; right now it's done manually after extracting csv files

  • Pausing scheduled messages

Usability
It is an easy-to-understand platform, thanks to its design and accessibility. You can, for example, easily find any users and their data, check exact volumes of segments, follow the history of messages sent, and create reports. We can connect Braze with other platforms for analysis or email design (Snowflake, Hightouch, Stripo...).

Support Rating
Very responsive and helpful on simple questions, but not great other than that. They do not have a way for the customer/user to escalate a ticket. You have to contact your rep and in some cases, they don't respond within 24 hours so you have no idea if they have escalated it. There is no phone number for an urgent issue - you have to rely on email

Braze has its own strengths and weaknesses compared to Bloomreach and Hubspot. Personally I prefer Bloomreach for lifecycle journey and orchestration however I've felt integration and scaling to be more straightforward with Braze. Other platforms have been reviewed but for value for money at scale and quality of platform, Braze came out as the chosen one.

We have only used Trumpia since we began sending out promotional text messages back in 2016. We have been very happy with Trumpia therefore we have not had to explore any other providers. The only other option that we may explore in the future is sending out promotional texts messages directly through our CRM and see how that works

  • We increased our engagement for a limited-time promo by 33% by simply running a 4-variant subject line test.
  • We managed to reduce our unsubscribe volume by 18% by excluding dormant users.
