### "Your One-stop Omni-shop." — 5.0/5

> **Daniel** | *03 March 2025* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Braze is a perfect blend of out-of-the-box functionality with complete customisability.
> 
> **Cons**: The new drag-and-drop editor for In-App-Messages could be better for customising rendering on different viewports and easily excluding content based on device.
> 
> Braze fits our business needs perfectly, helping grow alongside us and accomodate our varying needs. We can get simple use cases live quickly, as well as plan out large complex journeys. Most importantly our team loves using it, which is critical to getting buy-in, speed to market and fostering a genuine desire to innovate.

### "Horrible Custom SAML SSO integration for Google Workspace companies" — 2.0/5

> **Love** | *08 May 2023* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Haven't used the customer engagement part I'm just the System administrator, but I'm sure its fine.
> 
> **Cons**: If you are using Google Workspace the Custom SAML integration is horrible. Usually the setup with other companies takes a few hours, one week if there are issues. But am now six months into use. The support is polite but unable to help us to solve setting up a Custom SAML connection. An issue we have not had with setting up Custom SAML SSO connections for other apps.
> 
> I'm sure its main customer engagement function is fine. But if you are planning to use Braze with Google Workspace and want to set up a secure login with Custom SAML SSO then look for another app.

### "Streamlining Customer Engagement with Braze" — 4.0/5

> **Nachiket** | *18 July 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **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.
> 
> Overall, Braze has been a powerful tool for improving our customer engagement. Once we got the hang of it, it became a core part of our marketing strategy.

### "Braze is a great CRM tool that make life mostly easier" — 4.0/5

> **Sachin** | *16 October 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Braze does a lot of lifting in terms of trying to have features available to make email automation and triggered emails easier. Having the ability pull in datafeeds in the targeting criteria, the ability to message preview and test send, are all important features that make Braze well worth using. We also have dedicated Braze solutions consultants who have a relatively quick response time that is a big help as well.
> 
> **Cons**: There are a few features that, in my opinion, are critical for ease of use and needed everyday for Braze power users that I find would be hugely helpful, but aren't available. Being able to bulk select and drag components around the canvas, or bulk delete, or especially bulk edit would be huge but aren't features that are available. &#10;&#10;In the essence of fairness, one of the key features that I wanted for a long time, was implemented recently. Being able to select a push notification and have the copy be both iOS/Android inclusive, instead of having separate textboxes for each, was a huge win and timesaver.
> 
> Overall, having Braze as part of the tech stack where I work has been a net positive. The layout is intuitive, easy to use and well defined. Braze documentation on their website is pretty detailed and helpful, and their dedicated solutions consultants are quite helpful. Overall a useful CRM tool, with good UI/UX and overall good experience, with a few key areas for small improvement
