Customized segmentation
Customer.io gives you complete control over audience segmentation, allowing you to target users based on any profile or event attribute. In contrast, CleverTap relies on pre-built segments, restricting your ability to personalize messages and deliver truly relevant experiences.

Custom Objects
Unlock powerful features like custom objects in Customer.io to activate and use your data without limitations. Unlike CleverTap, which doesn’t support custom objects, our platform gives you the flexibility to build smarter, more data-driven campaigns.

What really makes Customer.io stand out is your focus on data. You make it easy to get the data we need, whether it’s sending it in or getting it out. The cherry on top is we can leverage our data to dynamically personalize our segmentation efforts and messaging.
Marc Messer
Manager


Across all of our events we send close to 1000 unique event properties to Customer.io. Other tools did not allow for this and it would require expensive additional development time to get all the relevant data to be available in our campaigns.

Manager


I love the product. The metrics are fantastic and the team is executing very well on new features. The smartest Marketing Tech people I know include this product as part of their core stack.
