Centralized customer data has powered predictive audiences and proactive marketing campaigns
The best features Segment offers are the audience building features. We've also launched predictive audiences, which is so far really promising for us and marketing has a lot of ideas for activating these types of audiences. We're going from using historical data to using current data to get more predictive with how we're activating. In my experience, the audience building tools compared to other solutions I've seen or used are really sophisticated. I've used other CRMs in the past for this, and I would say the type of data you're not getting as much of is what you do when you're activating or creating the audiences within the CDP. I think predictive audiences require a 360 view of the customer in order to create these types of AI audiences because they use a lot of different data points. How it's helping the team is by giving us more ways to reach our customers and being more proactive in the type of campaigns that marketing can launch. They have a lot of good ideas and some good things in the pipeline.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to use."
"I like the straightforward way of connecting with various data sources and destinations. That's the most valuable feature. It has built-in integrations for a lot of them, so the overall effort required for integrations is relatively low."
"Segment's scalability is amazing, and it's fully capable of handling all of the different use cases that we have in our company and we have a very complicated company."
"Inserting some very simple code snippets has made this part of it a breeze for our developer so he can concentrate on the hard stuff."
"Customer support is fantastic."
 

Cons

"The UI and UX must be improved."
"The challenge is the lack of flexibility in the SDKs, given the capabilities of the destinations."
"The design of the website is such that you lose context when clicking around (e.g. when clicking on docs)."
"The only challenge was the session functionality."
"I chose a rating of eight out of ten because these video tutorials would really illustrate how to use the tool to its full potential, and perhaps some more hands-on support from the Segment team would push it to a ten."

What needs improvement with Segment?
There was a race condition in the Segment journey that I highlighted to Segment, and I think they must be doing something with it. Everything else was perfect. I think everything has improved. They...
