Also, who wants to run omnichannel customer acquisition and focus on middle- or low-funch campaigns? Also, having multiple digital assets (i.e., website, mobile application, CRM, SMS campaign channels, etc).

We're not in the mood to start this process over at this time. A lot of hard work went into it.

Usability
Activation - great Segmentation - in UI, there should be the possibility of writing advanced code Tags. Both Mobile and Desktop Data Ingestion - might be pain in the ass. Changing one customer attribute is time-consuming. It should be some super admin or some feature. One user can change some customers' attributes easily. Data Transformation - Maybe there are some modules for that in AJO?

Alternatives Considered
Adobe CDP is a very capable product that offers all of the features that its competitors offer and more. The only differences can be noticed while connecting with other external tools. Adobe can help easily connect with tools within its ecosystem: Analytics/Marketo/Target, etc.

Blueshift's capability with events and segmentation is unmatched - with other CDPs, we have not been able to replicate the ability to create an event based on customer behavior that encapsulates a payload of information regarding that particular action.
