Featured Reviews

Boxahi Wallace - PeerSpot reviewer
Sales and Marketing Specialist at Unilever
Advanced customer journeys have boosted segmentation and now deliver more relevant campaigns
The best features Blueshift offers in my experience are customer data management and segmentation, intuitive and easy-to-use UI, quick and efficient customer support, and an intuitive user-friendly interface that allows me to manage complex data easily. Blueshift also offers robust features such as integration with Segment and other apps, retargeting with dynamic content pulled from data feeds and catalogs. Out of those features, I find myself relying on the customer segments and recommendation tool in Blueshift the most day-to-day because it has helped with automating and personalizing our tags. I would also add that the predictive score is very useful. Blueshift has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to launch triggered marketing campaigns targeted to specific segments based on users' behaviors on-site and deliver relevant personalized content using the AI-based recommendations tool.
Madhan Krishnamoorthy - PeerSpot reviewer

Integration with CRM and third-party systems significantly boosts campaign management
The native integration could be improved, as Oracle Eloqua has decommissioned it. Manual uploads require changing the data priority order to top priority. Sometimes form capturing data fails, and campaign response issues occur. The pricing of Oracle Eloqua is quite high as it is an Oracle product. Compared to other marketing automation platforms such as Marketo, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, and Pardot, the price point is higher. The technical support is rated at eight because it can be difficult to get in touch with them after working hours. Support is only available during business hours, so if assistance is needed outside of the nine-to-five window, users must wait until the next day.
