Great tool for technical marketers
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Blueshift is user-friendly for marketing teams. I have a team of 3 that are pretty self-sufficient within the tool. I also like that Blueshift connects to a lot of third parties (social platforms, NPS platforms, slack, etc). Their account services team is some of the most responsive groups of CS professionals I have ever worked with and I know that after I sen an email if I need them they will respond almost immediately if not within an hour or so. Some products I've used have a very long response queue
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be technically challenging at times but they do have a great client services team that can walk you through anything that is out of your technical abilities. As I also mentioned above, they also have an extremely responsive team which also helps with the technical challenges.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were really looking to Blueshift to help us with our recommendation engine and empowering our marketing team to build real-time triggers. We are able to do a lot of technical things that would normally require a technical resource on our own - which saves the company time, money and resources. We are also excited to launch our NPS survey through one of the cloud apps that Blueshift partners with!

The capabilities of Blueshift are great as far as using predictive segment for our users. We are able to develop thoughtful approaches to our email & retention strategy that other email platforms never reached.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the user interface is a little difficult to manage and missing a few features that would be helpful for non-technical marketers. However, they take their customer feedback very seriously and are always updating us on the progress of our product requests!

Blueshift has allowed us to develop thoughtful event-triggered campaigns based on our user site-activity.
Blueshift is a solid tool for technical marketers
What do you like best about the product?
I love that this tool enables most technical marketers to do some pretty advanced things.
I also love that the support and client services team are very responsive and get back you you pretty quickly.
They also always take our feedback and improve their product with our feedback! This is great that they do this and really shows that they care about what we think and to make it better for us every day.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it requires a little too technical knowledge to build complex things compared to other tools in the space.
Liquid language is a must-know for this tool and to be able to use dynamic content.
I would love more advanced training if possible.

Automation, job alerts, triggered emails. Email reporting, we do it all in Blueshift!
Enabling the marketers to be able to do things on their own. They are really empowered to be the best technical marketers that they can be.

Make sure your marketers are technical or have the opportunity to be technical on their own!
Great for Email Developers
What do you like best about the product?
If you're an email developer, you're gonna love Blueshift. Unlike some other ESP's and marketing automation platforms, Blueshift doesn't alter your markup (besides minifying the HTML) or add in any additional vendor specific HTML.
Blueshift also uses Shopify's Liquid templating language for adding light scripting capabilities and the ability to iterate over JSON objects.

What do you dislike about the product?
I mostly like the campaign building features that Blueshift offers, but in that area of campaigns, they are missing features from other big platforms like Marketo and Eloqua, like the ability to easily change data points in a campaign; the ability to push a user to another campaign based on a campaign action; more complex branching options at the campaign level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
On the email template level, we're solving the problem of personalization by leveraging data from JSON events, using Liquid.
Data Driven Email Personalization
What do you like best about the product?
We can integrate multiple product feeds into Blueshift and create personalized promotional, triggered, and retention marketing campaigns.
What do you dislike about the product?
Implementation could be tedious. To add, different vendor and client team members are in different time zones, so testing and providing timely feedback could be a challenge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Blueshift provided a platform for us to integrate different product feeds in our customization and personalization efforts. Our output has become more detailed since we combined and used varying data points for our promotional, triggered, and retention marketing campaigns.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If possible, try to get a dedicated implementations team near or in your time zone, as the time difference could become a challenge.
Good experience
What do you like best about the product?
On the technical side it has been easy to implement and any time we´ve had a technical challenge, you guys have always been ready and given quick replies
What do you dislike about the product?
Grasping the concept of campaigns, segments, recommendations and how it all connects takes some time to get through. It's a big concept and takes time to get into.
When thing that might need a better ux is how blocks are, you are never sure if you are in a block or you forget to select it and then create a new block.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
From the technical side, this simplifies the communication to our customers and gives us all kinds of flexibility. I look forward to extend this even more, pushing data with webhooks to other systems even doing our own implementation. Next step for us as well is to do cross domain marketing, this will be really powerful and exciting
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a process implementing system like Blueshfit, getting up to speed and using its full potential will take months/year. But keeping discipline gets you there
Blueshift has been a fantasic technology and a great partner
What do you like best about the product?
The data structure is truly amazing and the speed is awesome. The technical staff is very talented and committed to excellence.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really see downsides to Blueshift. As part of the integration team they were professional and really helped us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had been using an internal messaging platform and being able to leverage Blueshift has increased our speed and has helped us better manager our customers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a great system. Look at the data integrations they have a lot of features.
Too many clicks
What do you like best about the product?
I can send an email to a lot of people. I send out Reload emails to customers
What do you dislike about the product?
That I have to click so many links just to send emails
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't have an easy way to see who opened and who read the emails or confirmed - should be a faster way to do this then download another file just to see. More Real-time - be able to see emails opened or read.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make it user friendly and less clicks to get emails sent out
My experience has been mixed.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the selectivity process, segments. It's easy to filter out who you want to send to.
What do you dislike about the product?
You pretty much have to write HTML to create an email template. The previous solution we used had better tools to make an email without knowing any HTML.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I train the application to other people. The following are really easy to teach: segments and campaigns. The customer DB is really confusing for them. The whole idea is customer lists. It's really difficult to understand why to use them. I can't really think of a good reason. Also, creating templates could be easier.
