Pros I like Braze’s user-friendly interface, fast onboarding, and effortless integrations. It helps me get new team members up to speed quickly so we can hit the ground running. Cons I find that initial workspace onboarding requires significant paperwork and administrative overhead for the legal and regulatory compliance review. Review Source EW Emily W. Marketing Manager Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Great product! Easy to use. " March 24, 2026 4.0 Has been great overall. Has made a huge impact on our business and still have some work to do to continue to improve that. Pros Easy to use - UI is intuitive, support is great and super helpful. Bonfire community is also a great resource. Cons The reporting on some features seems a bit glitchy / buggy. They only allow retargeting from certain campaigns after 3 months and I find you need a fairly in depth understanding of how things work in order to avoid race conditions. We've had some turnover with our CSMs, which I think slows progress a bit. Review Source R Reviewer Educator Success Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Helping teams work together!" November 25, 2025 5.0 It's been great to use Braze across our teams to build segments, target, and filter based on our desired outcomes. Pros I love how easy it is to manage users across various segments of the company. I can work with marketing, data, and various other teams to house information and build segments. Cons It takes a little bit of "learning" on how to navigate around and what each part of Braze does. Clicking around helps.

Once we got the hang of it, it became a core part of our marketing strategy. Pros Braze makes it super easy to create personalized, multi-channel campaigns. The Canvas Flow feature is a standout, it’s visual, intuitive, and saves tons of time. Cons The learning curve was a bit steep at first, especially with advanced features. Some integrations also required more setup than expected. Review Source Luka C. Customer Support Manager Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Braze review" November 20, 2025 4.0 Braze is a powerful tool for multi-channel marketing.

VP, Marketing Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Great marketing automation tool " August 11, 2025 5.0 Very happy with it. Pretty easy to use and to integrate. A complete solution for all marketing automation needs. Pros Holistic marketing automation. Is a great solution for brands that have both a website and an app and want smart flows that send push notifications, in-apps, and emails to the applicable people. Very easy to use. Cons Overall the initial package price is reasonable and you only pay for MAUs and not for all users in the account, but adding more emails is pricey. Review Source R Reviewer CRM Lead Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Flexible CRM Platform that Scales with Growth" October 9, 2025 5.0 Overall, Braze has been a strong partner in helping us scale user communication globally. It enables us to optimize customer journeys, run reliable A/B tests, and closely track engagement and revenue impact. While there are occasional challenges with usability and the overhead of maintaining clean templates, the platform’s flexibility and performance outweigh these downsides. It has enabled our CRM team to shift its focus from manual execution to more strategic, value-driven work. Pros Braze provides excellent value for money given its depth of features. It centralizes multi-channel orchestration across email, push, in-app messaging, and more, making it easy to build sophisticated journeys. The learning curve is manageable thanks to clear documentation, and once workflows are set up, campaign specialists can execute quickly. Its security and data privacy compliance also give confidence when managing tens of millions of users. Cons The platform can be overwhelming at first, especially for newer team members who face a steep learning curve when navigating the product with various features. Email management and template handling are powerful but sometimes clunky, requiring extra QA to ensure translations or localized versions work correctly. Bugs are rare, but when they occur, they can slow down analysis and require support tickets. Review Source Angela R. Lifecycle Marketing Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Works for Complex Subscription Programs" September 17, 2025 3.0 Its overall fine, I think it suits the business needs well. However, the SMS product needs improving and strategic guidance from internal staff. Pros Canvas journeys are able to support our complex subscription flows, creating and augmenting the SMS campaigns is also simple. Cons I wish segmentation was more intuitive - I find competitor products much simpler to use and/or statements when creating audiences Review Source Verified Reviewer Sr. Product Delivery Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "A great messaging platform for maturing companies!" August 27, 2025 5.0 8/10 - It's such a big step up in messaging platforms and innovative in automated technology. It really does minimize the time needed for your run of the mill journey or drip campaigns and when you are ready to level up your messaging it also has everything you need. Pros I love how much automated functionality and personalization is available through out the different messaging capabilities. There is a significant time commitment when setting up new automation but in the long run it saves time. They also have very flexible in platform permission settings which avoids any accidental messaging from testers and dev. Cons Due to all the functionality there is a bit of a learning curve that can feel overwhelming if you have a lean team. The other double edge sword is the support process. You can enter a ticket like most systems but the level of detail they require from the team can feel like overkill when you are trying to solve an issue quickly. I call this a double edge sword because they are incredibly helpful it can just take a lot time to duplicate the issue to send all the info required. Review Source R Reviewer Senior Marketing Automation Executive Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Keep it up Braze! Excited to see what the future holds" June 24, 2025 5.0 I’ve used Braze daily across a wide range of campaign and lifecycle use cases, and having achieved 12 certifications, I’d say I know the platform inside out. Overall, it’s a powerful and flexible tool for cross-channel engagement, especially when it comes to real-time triggers, personalised messaging, and orchestrating complex user journeys.” “I really value how intuitive the UI is, particularly the Canvas builder and segmentation logic. It empowers non-technical teams to move quickly while still giving room for advanced use cases through Liquid, Connected Content, and Currents integrations. That said, I’ve also seen where Braze hits limitations—reporting depth, testing capabilities, and scaling complex logic across campaigns can be areas of friction. You often have to lean on external tooling to go beyond tactical execution and into strategic insight. Still, for teams with strong lifecycle and CRM maturity, and especially if your data setup is clean, Braze is one of the best platforms out there to drive meaningful, data-driven customer engagement. Pros I love how intuitive and user-friendly Braze is—it makes it easy to build and launch campaigns quickly without needing heavy dev input. Braze’s real-time event triggering is super valuable. Being able to act instantly on user behavior (like cart abandonment or a milestone hit) is key for performance Cons You often need to supplement Braze analytics with Looker, Tableau, or something else if you want real strategic insight. Review Source RA Robert A. Digital Marketing And Loyalty Specialist Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Braze - The CRM Booster You Need" June 2, 2025 5.0 Pros There are a few things that come to mind. Braze is extremely flexible, we can create very simple customer journeys or very complex ones. The number of partner integrations they have. This gives us the freedom to choose the right partner for our business instead of only having 1-2 choices if we want to keep our systems talking. Lastly, how committed Braze is to developing new tools for us to use. Some are small quality of life upgrades, but others are much more meaningful and enable us to really increase our marketing efforts. Cons There aren't any big cons with Braze in my experience. If I had to say something I would pick some small things such as not being able to include a seed list on pushes and not being able to call in nested properties for custom events when creating basic segments. Review Source R Reviewer Marketing Automation Manager Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "A robust platform with room for development" May 26, 2025 4.0 Braze is a fantastic platform with a user-friendly interface that doesn't lack the more complex features an advanced marketer needs in their toolbox. The team at Braze is responsive and knowledgeable. There is something left to be desired regarding the speed at which feature requests are reviewed and implemented, but overall I love using Braze. Pros The ability to personalize journeys and messaging using Liquid and other tools is a great benefit. The retargeting options range from the simple basics to very granular, which is great when you need to automate a highly-personalized experience. Cons Feature requests and "on-the-roadmap" items take a long time to be developed. Some of these items are just nice to have but some can become actual road blocks to drafting the intended user experience.

It’s easy to use, helps create personalized campaigns, and works well with other tools. Just a few features need some technical support. Pros I liked Braze because it’s easy to use and helps create personalized campaigns quickly. The Canvas feature is great for planning user journeys, and it works well with other tools. Cons Sometimes Braze can be slow with large campaigns, and a few features are a bit complex to set up without technical help Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Marketing Automation Specialist Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "A powerful tool with few trade-offs" June 3, 2025 4.0 Pros the interface is user friendly. Setting up campaigns and analyzing performance after deployment is easy. The advance segmentation capabilities has significantly helped in our targeting efforts. The new-age capabilities offered by braze such as intelligent timing, AI assistant for liquid, AI Copywriting assistant are the gamechanger. The multichannel support and real time data which helps in better customer retention. Cons I wish Braze had a separate, dedicated section for email creation and management. Currently, the email needs to be created and managed in the campaign or canvas directly where sometimes it becomes difficult to manage incase of complex journeys where multiple peoples are working on the same canvas. There should have been SQL segmentation option, where the segmentation is complex and isn't possible through the drag and drop/ standard segmentation. Review Source R Reviewer Director, Engagement Strategy Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Great Transition to Braze" June 24, 2025 4.0 The Braze team was very hands on with getting our team up and running. We have saved so much time on email deployments since moving over from our old ESP. Pros We were able to set up our platform and Braze to share data easily, allowing for seamless automation. Cons I wish there was a way to look at campaign performance at a glance more easily with a simple report tab that displays all deployments and there email stats. Review Source R Reviewer Digital Marketing Executive Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Braze | Six-month user" March 3, 2025 4.0 So far, so good. It's only been six months and I'm looking forward to new features rolling out and seeing how I can implement them into my marketing campaigns. Pros The ability of automation and segmentation compared to their competitors. Cons I find it hard to delegate work to more junior colleagues as the interface is a bit more advanced than some people are used to. Review Source Kerry T. CRM Data Director Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Initial Review" March 17, 2025 4.0 Pros Braze has a lot of flexibility in their UI to do custom features in campaigns and canvases. This helps when you have a large organization and local markets who have their own style, look, and feel. Cons The technical integration is hard if you have a complex ecosystem. A lot of open questions. Review Source R Reviewer Manager, Martech Engineering Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Blaze with Braze " October 23, 2023 4.0 Pros Campaign and template is the most important feature. It allow anyone with basic skill to create and maintain campaign. The data integration is another feature which allow seamless migration of data to Braze Cons The current email template management requires more improvement when it comes to switching between html and drag and drop mode. Since we work on this on a daily basis, this is the least like but at the same time most beneficial one as described previously. Review Source Kara M. Customer Success Associate Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Obsessed with Braze! " September 1, 2025 5.0 I've been using Braze for 3 years now and I love it so much! It is so user friendly and one of my favorite systems. Pros I love how clean and sleek braze is! The interface is great for anyone learning how to use these type of systems. Cons The only thing I would change about Braze is the delay in e-mail verification code! Sometimes I have ended up waiting hours. Review Source R Reviewer Head of Digital Transformation Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Braze: A tool with great potential to leverage the value of yor data" February 24, 2025 5.0 Good but not easy if we want to do things worldclass Pros I like Braze´s great potential to integrate multiple data sources to leverage the power of our data streams and data models, which allows to convert them into meaninful smart marketing campaigns, to deliver the right message/nbo/nba at the right time or event, and with a meaninful feedback cycle to craft better customers journeys across all our business units. Cons The current integration with our own digital ID is still subpar, this makes it difficult to track which customer profile braze is using on our campaigns, as one customer can have multiple profiles, the support from braze engineers on this regard could be better. Review Source R Reviewer Senior Lifecycle Marketing Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "The best tool for the job" June 23, 2025 5.0 I was brand new to my role and to Braze and was able to use the learning resources to quickly become the expert in my org. I love the data visibility and how we can use it to inform outreach strategy. Pros The customer support and learning/training resources, how easy it makes it to target our users with personalized outreaches Cons Some of the tooling isn't the most intuitive, and not auto-saving or being able to restore previous versions is tough at times.
