Likelihood to Recommend
Amperity is best suited for enterprises looking for refined analytics CDPs. It does not have campaign or delivery capabilities but makes up for that through the plethora of third-party integration it offers. The pricing is very attractive and it offers various usage-based tiers which are ideal for even small and mid-sized enterprises. Lastly, the software itself is very easy to use and marketers will enjoy the dashboard UI/UX and various reporting features it has.

Best suited: - Merging emails coming from: Facebook leads forms, Unbounce or landing pages forms, Google forms, any other kind of lead generation tool and bundling all that information together for a single user "profile". - Passing events generated in multiple applications by the same user (product selected in web, product discarded in cart, etc) and delivering those events into other applications (like a CRM) Less appropriate: - Reading/updating data directly from segment from a frontend application

Cons
  • 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

  • Potentially, it could "warn" the developers/product about areas in our code that are not covered by events (and let us decide if it's "be design" or we missed it).
  • It's difficult to get accumulated history data exported out in order to analyze it.
  • There's no easy way to compare data from 2 sources (our main target is to compare the same events between our test environment and prod environment).

Over the period it took us to set up, we kept going back to their enablement team to help us with the setup, and they were always ready and were very helpful in the entire process. Even with their documentation, they took the time out to help us work through the process. We've never had a message/email unanswered for more than an hour on working days.

Alternatives Considered
Bluecore was a solid platform, but Custora is differentiated in that it provides individualized triggers for customers based on their past purchase history

Segment is not really suitable for most websites that have more than 10k MTU - If you run a semi-popular website, there are many tools out there that will do basic web analytics, like Google Analytics. Google Analytics provides simple resources for tracking user growth, demographics, and conversion rates of websites, which is more suitable for companies that are looking for simpler analytics data.

Return on Investment
  • Overall we have been able to increase the mix of triggered related revenue in email from 20% to 50% of total revenue after implementing Custora's lifecycle triggers
  • We've also seen one off email tests with incremental conversion rates up to 75% when utilizing Custora personas to personal communications

  • Event tracking lets you take ownership of your own data, which in part makes it easy to craft metrics and do deep dives to see how your product is working. This has a huge ROI, because without metrics you're basically flying blind.
  • You can also use Segment's event tracking to fuel your experimentation and AB testing strategies. AB testing is the best way to ship features in a tech product with confidence that you're making a positive impact.
