Well-suited: For marketing automation of an eCommerce store, increasing revenue by abandoned cart recovery, personalized coupons, and follow-up emails with newsletters and product recommendations. The additional revenue stream from re-marketing across social media.
Not suited: for an online store with just a few products, it would be too complicated and expensive to run.
Kenshoo Search may not be appropriate if you don't spend much on search engine marketing. It also may not be appropriate if you don't care about tracking conversions and are only concerned with increasing awareness. Or, if you care about tracking conversions but don't expect to capture many, Kenshoo Search may not be necessary.
Email follow up on potential sales for visitors that did add products to the cart but didn’t complete the purchase process.
Split testing to gather information on which texts, layouts and photos that work the best. It’s a really nice feature!
The functionality to offer dynamic coupons with different criterias. This way you have the possibility to target individuals or target several groups with different techniques.
Customized reporting. There are many features that users can't report out on in power editor. Kenshoo makes it incredibly easy to get everything you need for a raw data dump.
Automation. Whether it's automated rules, portfolios or refreshing CRM uploads, Kenshoo helps cut some of the manual tasks out of the process making me more efficient.
Staying up to date with Facebook product updates. I can appreciate that Kenshoo does an exceptional job and ensuring new capabilities in Facebook are ready for use in the Kenshoo platform as well.
Syncing - I have had many issues where syncs would time out, or not show that changes were posted to Facebook.
Library - if there was a library for targeting settings that could be saved and easily accessed and input into new campaigns, that would be very helpful.
Updates - seemingly basic tools that a social management platform should have often taken a long time to be released.
It's great to have a product like Kenshoo Social. It has a lot of data and is a great tool to use. Honestly, I think we would have looked somewhere else if we didn't have some much data and time invested into the platform. We had used it across search and social, so we invested a lot of time to get it running smoothly. It is very expensive and we think we could have gone elsewhere to get the same results over time. Once they have your data and the system is running smoothly, it's very difficult to go elsewhere
If you have any eCommerce functions on your website you need to use Remarkety over Mailchimp because the features and functions offered by Remarkety blow Mailchimp out of the water. You'll see faster growth when using Remarkety. We chose Remarkety over Mailchimp because of how well it integrates with our e-commerce efforts.
While DoubleClick does not fully budget pace accounts I think it overall provides more accurate changes than Kenshoo. When our company selected Kenshoo we were told it would be able to manage hundreds of small accounts with small budgets. It is more designed for accounts that would be spending minimally thousands of dollars a month. We had extreme issues with Kenshoo budget pacing and increasing our bids. Overall it did not meet our needs, and we will be switching vendors at end of contract
ROI is harder to track due to reporting/column & time frame default tech in my humble opinion but generally better results when compared to other products
Since the interface is difficult to navigate and paid search is a reactive medium, can produce barriers to change.
