Group Head of Data Strategy & Enterprise Governance at a consumer goods company with 10,001+ employees
Struggled to justify enterprise adoption but have valued broader developer accessibility
If I could change or add anything to improve C3 AI, I would suggest making it not just an AI platform, but a data and AI combined platform, as bringing in data management elements, governance, and cloud features is critical. The real AI and modeling represent only 20 percent of what is needed; there is over 80 percent in the rest of the world that should be addressed. Given Tom Siebel's deep understanding of corporate work and his network, integrating C3 AI with other ERP solutions such as Oracle, SAP, or Microsoft is essential. If C3 AI can be an enterprise platform, embedding more data elements and ensuring seamless integration with other ERP solutions would significantly enhance its capabilities and attractiveness. If someone told me that they have SAP, and C3 AI can seamlessly integrate the data and perform action calls between SAP, allowing me to operate on C3 AI as I would on SAP, that would be a killer feature for me. I would suggest avoiding traditional licensing sales as it is too expensive; the starting price is too high. Considering a subscription model or a pay-per-use model is the best business structure for AI or data solution vendors. The pay-per-use model benefits usage, as the more you use, the more successful you become with the platform.

Targeted lifecycle journeys have boosted engagement and have improved retention continuously
There is definitely room for improvement in MoEngage. A few challenges and pain points I have experienced include the learning curve for advanced features. Although the basic interface is user-friendly, some advanced capabilities such as complex segmentations, journey logic, and event configuration can present a steeper learning curve. Our new users require training to fully utilize the platform, and debugging complex journeys is not always intuitive. Improvement in guided workflows or more interactive onboarding would help us make better use of MoEngage. While the platform provides solid analytics, there are limitations regarding deep customization and advanced reporting, with limited flexibility in creating highly custom reports. We have noted that exporting and combining data for deeper analysis sometimes requires external tools, so enhancing analytics capabilities or offering more customizable dashboards would significantly add value to the platform. Additionally, we have observed minor delays in real-time data syncing when managing large user volumes, and event-based triggers may occasionally face delays. While these are not major issues, improving real-time responsiveness would strengthen time-sensitive campaigns on our platform. One improvement would be UI/UX enhancements in campaign management because, while the UI is generally clean, managing multiple campaigns and journeys at scale can feel slightly cluttered. Navigating between campaigns and flows can be optimized, and better visualization for complex journeys would help us significantly. A more streamlined interface for large-scale operations would enhance usability. I believe one area for further development could be more advanced AI-driven automation. For example, smarter recommendations for campaign timing, audience selection, or next best actions would be beneficial. While the current predictive features are useful, further maturity would make the platform even more proactive and reduce manual optimization efforts.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"One of the best features C3 AI offers is that you do not need to learn Python or any specific machine learning programming language; you can use C3 AI with JavaScript."
"In the first phase alone, there was approximately $90 million in savings, which reduced about 5% of inventory."
"I have noticed improvements in efficiency, reduced downtime, and time saved for my team, as it is quite integrated through the source ML pipeline to report to general customer UI, functioning as one platform that takes care of everything, thus improving efficiency, optimization, and increasing project deliverables."
"Around 40 to 50% of my work has mentally transferred to this particular tool, helping me in more structured follow-up."
"MoEngage is not just a messaging tool but a strategic product growth platform that significantly enhances user engagement and retention when used effectively."
 

Cons

"However, I sometimes hear from colleagues that hallucination is an issue."
"The reason I chose eight out of ten is that as a user of C3 AI, I found the operational aspect not easy to understand; it is a bit tricky, and you should have more core knowledge to navigate C3 AI."
"We even failed to open any doors for C3 AI; there are no smaller wins, learning opportunities, or process improvements, even if the main goals were not met."
"Though MoEngage is a really good product, as we are using it on a basic level, one area of improvement is the ease of use for some of the advanced features."
"While the platform provides solid analytics, there are limitations regarding deep customization and advanced reporting, with limited flexibility in creating highly custom reports."
