    Acquia
    It made it super easy to upgrade 300+ Drupal sites to the latest major version in 12 weeks, end to end. It is easy to deploy legal changes and updates to components at scale. Turnkey service to deploy new environments and to clone sites. There are no ecosystem lock-in principles for Customer service/success services and professional services for new approaches.

    I think Custora is a great fit for B2C companies that are trying to take their relationship marketing programs to the next level and outside of basic segmentation. It's a great platform to consolidate all customer, order history, and campaign history type data into one platform to obtain a 360 degree view of the customer. Additionally I would say, if an organization is resource constrained from an analytics perspective, the platform also makes great sense to invest in. It provides out of the box predictive analytics, and custom lifecycle triggers to align a retention marketing program around. Outside of the upfront work to get the platform up and running, it's very marketer friendly to utilize

    Pros

    Cons
    Acquia
    • Support responds pretty quickly to critical tickets, but they can be slow to respond on non-urgent items. Some of what we experienced may have been related to a newer ticketing system recently implemented.
    • Standard support covers business days/hours but only critical support is available outside those times. We typically schedule our website updates for the weekend or "off" hours when only critical support is available.

    • Currently there are limitations with the number of personas that can be built in the instance, it would be great to have more flexibility here
    • We occasionally see issues with lists delivered to our ESP from the platform. Not a major problem, but could be an area of improvement

    Likelihood to Renew
    Acquia
    We rated our renewal likelihood an 8 because Acquia DXP delivers solid reliability, strong enterprise security, and an infrastructure built specifically for Drupal that takes the burden off our internal hosting management. The developer tooling and cloud stability are exceptional. The only factors keeping it from a 10 are the premium licensing costs and the learning curve for non-technical users, which requires ongoing budget justification during annual renewal discussions.

    Every time we have had an issue, Acquia support has responded promptly and worked with us as a team to solve the problem. The Acquia support team is global and we have literally had interactions with all of their support offices, yet the experience has been the same - top notch

    Alternatives Considered
    Acquia
    We chose Acquia for a much better UI that gave non-analytical marketers and easy to use tool where they could create their own reports. The campaign side of things also had an easier to use UI as well, that made the targeting of audiences much easier.

    Amperitiy's data model is much more refined compared to the competition which makes it ideal for firms looking for a no-nonsense CDP. However, it lacks campaigns and delivery features when compared to some other CDP providers like mParticle and Clevertap. The pricing is good and the usage-based pricing ensures that even small to mid-sized teams can afford it. Support can be improved though.

    Scalability
    Acquia
    The DXP tools can handle millions of requests and can scale automatically to fit your needs. We have clients that use only part of the DXP tools and have a small usage, but even in these cases they see great value in using tools like personalization and CDP.
