User Testimonials
Adjust by AppLovinBraze
Likelihood to Recommend
It is very well-suited for big apps that have lots of users. They scale very well and are a little bit less expensive than other alternatives. They have API connections that are suitable for internal attributions and data. I recommend other solutions in some cases, such as cohorts and UI/Agency access.

Its really well suited to brands with a mobile app. And from what I can glean from the features my org isn't able to take advantage of, its best suited for: - B2C brands that use social media - ecommerce (i.e. CPG) Otherwise, I am not convinced it is the tool I would recommend for users that do not have a mobile app. You're not getting most of the value from it.

Pros
  • Tracking installs on mobile app campaigns on Android or iOS, as well as UAC campaigns.
  • Tracking in-app actions on our mobile campaigns.
  • Showing more accurate numbers, since it counts pure installs from new users only without counting re-installs,
  • Counts installs only after first opening of the app, while Google and Apple count also downloads even if the app doesn't get installed or opened after.

  • Well looked after - Braze itself are always on hand to answer any questions and help us make our work better.
  • Great tool - We use a fair bit of Braze but there
  • are so many exciting features we're slowly incorporating, Braze is always building on what they have and this keeps us top of our game.
  • Fantastic learning - I have advanced quickly in my work in Braze due to their support and learning programs. This has been key for me.

Cons
  • UI is very confusing and needs a refresh.
  • Reports are very limited and need more granularity.
  • Onboarding program for agencies lacks concrete information.

  • Enabling GIF/videos to be directly uploaded on to Braze's platform
  • Easier way of creating canvases; right now it is too complex for someone new who is starting off in the company to understand what things do and where things are
  • Ability to track duplicate user profiles within the entire audience segment
  • Automated deduplicating email addresses/phone numbers in each targeting segment; right now it's done manually after extracting csv files

It is an easy-to-understand platform, thanks to its design and accessibility. You can, for example, easily find any users and their data, check exact volumes of segments, follow the history of messages sent, and create reports. We can connect Braze with other platforms for analysis or email design (Snowflake, Hightouch, Stripo...).

Adjust Attribution is great on Amplitude if tagged/integrated right.

Very responsive and helpful on simple questions, but not great other than that. They do not have a way for the customer/user to escalate a ticket. You have to contact your rep and in some cases, they don't respond within 24 hours so you have no idea if they have escalated it. There is no phone number for an urgent issue - you have to rely on email

Alternatives Considered
Each MMP has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. What I like about Adjust is that it blocks the postbacks for invalid traffic without triggering an install which helps reduce fraud, as the fraudulent party does not get paid. Other systems count the install and then you need to go into the logs to subtract it but Adjust does it automatically. However, Adjust is by far the MMP with the worst UI and UX.

Braze has its own strengths and weaknesses compared to Bloomreach and Hubspot. Personally I prefer Bloomreach for lifecycle journey and orchestration however I've felt integration and scaling to be more straightforward with Braze. Other platforms have been reviewed but for value for money at scale and quality of platform, Braze came out as the chosen one.
