In the digital marketing world, managing the customer journey is not just about setting up automation; it’s about using the right data, at the right time, through the right channel.
At this point, brands often encounter two powerful tools: Braze and Ortto.
But which one truly serves your growth goals better?
Omtera’s Braze expertise helps brands find a data-driven, strategic, and scalable answer to this question.
In this article, we’ll explore the differences between these two platforms in terms of data management, depth of personalization, and journey orchestration.
Modern consumers constantly move between devices and channels.
For brands, creating a unified customer experience is both essential and complex.
Customer journey orchestration is the key to bringing order to this complexity.
Braze enables brands to build real-time, data-driven journeys, allowing automated scenarios triggered by user behavior.
Ortto, on the other hand, takes a CRM-based approach but lacks Braze’s ability to process behavioral data instantly.
Result:
Braze captures every user action (for example: app opens, cart abandonment, push notification clicks) and responds in real time.
This gives brands a significant advantage in both speed and context.
One of Braze’s strongest capabilities is real-time data streaming.
This allows brands to monitor user behavior instantly and react immediately.
For instance, when a user views a product in your mobile app, Braze can trigger a personalized push notification or email at that exact moment.
Ortto typically processes data through batch synchronization — which can lead to delays of minutes or even hours.
Braze integrates deeply with modern data platforms such as Segment, Snowflake, Amplitude, Mixpanel, and Firebase.
This allows brands to build a single customer view, delivering consistent messaging across every channel.
With Omtera’s Braze integration services, brands can establish these connections quickly, accurately, and strategically.
Braze’s personalization engine goes far beyond names or segments; it supports behavioral, temporal, and geographic context for highly dynamic experiences.
This enables brands to design tailored experience flows for every single user.
Through Braze Canvas Flow, marketers can:
Ortto provides basic segmentation but cannot optimize multi-touch journeys at the same level of sophistication.
Example:
An e-commerce brand can use Braze to send a push notification 5 minutes after cart abandonment, an email 2 hours later, and an SMS discount 24 hours after that.
This scenario can be created in seconds with Braze’s event-based real-time architecture.
When properly implemented, Braze’s robust infrastructure can boost conversion rates by 20–40%.
However, achieving this potential requires the right setup, data flow design, and journey optimization.
