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

Pros
  • Tracking of clicks, views, add to cart, order etc. Across various marketing channels.
  • Attribution of channels basis last click, first click etc.
  • Analytics, Insights, user CAC and LTV etc.

  • Unmatched insight into the customer journey when they come into contact with our business.
  • The ability for it to break down data in a way that allows us to analyse customer engagement.
  • It efficiently integrates with my current softwares eg Shopify.

Cons
  • Team members had a hard time getting started with this tool, setup was a bit challenging at first, but customer support has been excellent.
Read full review
  • 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).

Support Rating
They have been a bit slow in responding, that's the only reason for the low rating. Otherwise, they are smart and helpful.

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
It is a wonderful option
with favorable virtues to be applied in the company's marketing process, it
allows us to obtain information through consultation and analysis, they are attentive
and friendly when offering their service and support, it also includes
functions such as a fraud tool for the management of push consent, very useful
for additional reports in analysis teams, is also competitive because it is
providing adequate payment alternatives.

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
  • We have had issues with quality due to the poor reporting
  • Lost several opportunities based on lack of visibility
  • not user friendly dashboard, and therefore harder to use than other common platforms

  • 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.
