Singular, headquartered in San Francisco, offers their mobile marketing and analytics platform of the same name. The company Singular merged with Apsalar in 2017, and combined technologies to offer a single platform under the Singular brand.
Very suitable for traditional SaaS businesses who have good adoption of Salesforce by their GTM teams. Connects well if sales teams use the opportunity object well in Salesforce. Less impactful if Salesforce adoption is poor or instance is highly restricted.
Singular is perfect for companies that have limited BI developer resources. If you work with more than a few media partners, Singular aggregates all pre-install metrics and automatically connects it to your BI data / MMP provider. This use is perfect for executives/directors that want to have a quick snapshot of their marketing spend. Singular also works well for media buyers that want to export Singular report as a base for creating optimization reports.
Full Circle CRM has solved a major visibility problem for us that was the result of architectural differences between Eloqua and salesforce.com that cannot be solved by reporting alone. We rely on this visibility as much as the core systems themselves.
The vendor worked with us tirelessly, never complaining about our broken processes and bad data. In fact, they went above and beyond their responsibilities to assist us in the process re-engineering and the data clean-up
Singular (formerly Apsaler) team is beneficial and provides a quick resolution to all the issues. Not only the online team, but we have also had multiple interactions with the team face to face in the office. To have a better understanding of the platform, the team has helped us by providing training sessions, which included thru and thru the working of the platform.
The instructor was the same person who guided our implementation so they not only knew their application but they were also familiar with our data and our specific configuration and processes within salesforce.com. They were able to provide customized instruction to match our needs and personnel.
When I look back at where we were on November 25th compared to where we were on January 25th, having been live for just one month, the difference is amazing. Our management discussions had already moved from discussing the validity of the data to the implications of the insights. As we approach the mid-point in our year, it is difficult to remember the old days when we could not see the road in front of us.
Full Circle's main competitors are standalone reporting tools which perform well and are a good first step into attribution. All tools require significant investment to improve your marketing data model and how you plan and execute campaigns. Full Circle is heavily married to Salesforce and takes advantage of Salesforce's reporting suite vs. visualizing in a standalone tool. This approach also works well if you prefer to visualize data in an alternative tool such as Tableau or Looker. The proprietary approach to visualization used by Bizible and BrightFunnel are less appealing to enterprise companies who are building a modern stack.
As this is my first job after completing my graduation, therefore I do not have any prior experience of working with corporates and organizations. Hence I have only used Singular (formerly Apsalar).
