User Testimonials
Drawbridge (discontinued)mParticle
Likelihood to Recommend
It is well suited for small, targeted advertisements. I see this happening on a large scale and it is difficult to keep departments/groups/units separate from the individual, so incorrect, inappropriate, or just wrong recommendations are made all the time. The scale of your project I think determines whether this will be useful. A team under ~30/40 people, should work great. Larger than that and wires will be crossed, quality will plummet, and expectations will not be met.

Do not integrate multiple analytics / customer messaging / download attribution SDKs into your mobile or web apps, duplicating data and risking a fragemented view of the customer. Instead integrate mParticle as a CDP, and configure the necessary integrations which will enable you to progress towards a world of the single-view of the customer. Also works great to import historical data into a newly onboarded/integrated tool.

It's a great tool for beginners but not scalable to advance use cases. It's not it's a fault in our case, because any platform is as good as the data collected

They will go above and beyond and will file tickets If they don't have the answer. They are friendly, respectful, and punctual.

Alternatives Considered
In hindsight, I wish we had picked any of the other options. Drawbridge is a letdown in cost, user ability, quality of service, and support. Though I have limited experience with the other software mentioned, they surely would not have been such a letdown - in so many areas, as Drawbridge is.

mParticle has a bigger catalog of services you can interface with and provides a more complete check for data integrity. It also allows you to use any analytics solution.

Return on Investment
  • Troubleshooting
  • no ROI as too much troubleshooting goes into each project
  • did not synchronize teams' needs
  • poor user interface
  • waste of time

  • This might be less of an issue with mParticle, but often times we found ourselves troubleshooting discrepancies between what mParticle showed vs downstream analytics platforms, more so than troubleshooting the issue itself.
