Comparisons

How this differs from the tools you already use

Identity resolution rarely replaces another tool. These comparisons cover what each category does well, so you can see where it fits.

The question to ask first

Before comparing tools, name the decision you need to make. If you need a way to message customers, you need a permission-based channel such as loyalty, email, or text. If you need to stay visible with past visitors, retargeting is the direct option where an ad channel accepts your business. If you need to measure what happens on your site, you need web analytics. If you want to know who the traffic may be, that is where identity resolution comes in.

Many cannabis teams end up with several of these, and that is fine as long as each one has a clear job. Trouble starts when one tool gets asked to do the work of another, especially when matched data gets treated as if it were a permission-based list. Read about consent and disclosure before connecting any of them together.
