User Testimonials
Salesforce Data CloudTealium Customer Data Hub
Likelihood to Recommend
Being a mid sized organization, the costing is achievable, but can’t say for those of startups. So I believe not suitable for small scale organizations and very well suited for large data analytics companies to gain market. Also, the maintenance is slightly difficulty and support for the product is comparatively slower than other similar products.

Definitely in highly regulatory verticals. Tealium Customer Data Hub has the edge compared to its competitors when it comes to working in those spaces. I would also recommend it for marketing teams who have some IT support, but not a huge tech team that is able to support them in some sort of custom integrations. But are looking to quickly stand up a tool and start seeing returns quickly.

Cons
  • Very expensive
  • Does not integrate with HubSpot (another CRM). We have tried many times and it does not seem to connect
  • Sometimes the website will load very slow where other websites are much quicker

  • Audiences—don't they technically exist in Tealium? They are just streamed—no count, no backfill, etc.
  • Working backward to identify issues involves lots of clicking in the UI, going from audience to audience attribute, badge to event attribute, and so on.
  • You have to wait for a Real-Time event to see the payload. There is no sample or other option.

I already know that my company has no plans to discontinue use of Tealium. We are heavily reliant on it due to a huge number of product teams and developers we would have to work with to place tags across many pages. Tealium is already there on the pages, and our application/product teams are familiar with how to integrate it. It is just the simplest way to ensure that new data requirements are implemented in a timely manner.

Usability
it is easy to use after you get the hang of it. If you have an internal team of developers you will be able to maximise the usage a lot better. I would recommend it to people who need to organise data in a more unified way but I can’t speak to it from an infrastructure perspective as I’m not from the infrastructure team

Tealium iQ Tag Management System does exactly what it is intended for, it manages vendortags. Changes can be made to websites and apps in minutes. The frontend is well structured, updates are easy to carry out, and Tealium support is available at all times.

No vendor has ever delivered the level of support that we regularly get from Tealium. Whenever we run into an issue, we submit a ticket and always hear back within a few hours (or sooner based on the urgency noted in the ticket). Tealium support often helps me to customize the tags or pixels we set, they help to solve problems such as "Why did data suddenly stop being collected?" and more.

Implementation had some bumps in the road and it was new for all of us, but for the most part, it was easier than many other implementations we've done with other technologies.

I like Salesforce Data Cloud because like mentioned before, it is easy to use, easy to generate reports, create workflows, keep track of customer data, sales data, house data, etc. You can also import excel sheets with customer data as well and it will create the fields for you which is nice

All of these products they have the final usage of these technologies is all of the times around using Insider. For example, you have a CDP capability, but in order to activate to their own digital channels like WhatsApp or SMS or personalization on site, and you have other technologies that do the same and Tealium what makes different, it's all about the data. They are very neutral and it's the main difference between Tealium and the other technologies.

Return on Investment
  • Salesforce Data Cloud has a positive impact on me as a realtor because it is easy to generate reports on customer data and see what is needed to be bumped to the next level. We have to earn a certain commission by the end of the year and it makes it easy to see how close you are
  • It has a positive impact on keeping track of customers because it is nice to have it all in one place which is a nice time saver
  • I like that you can even see customer info from other agents making it nice to compare and try and pass others
  • Makes the customers journey smooth sailing because everything is in one place

  • Return on investment is always questioned at our company across our Tealium Customer Data Hub suite. How can we trace back that ROAS has improved because we integrated a new connector through Tealium Customer Data Hub. I think knowing that would be helpful.
  • Since we have a small team with limited resources, Tealium Customer Data Hub has been really helpful in adding tags/connectors with ease. This in turn, has allowed us to have more time working on things outisde of tagging.
