Automation Studio or Journey Builder? That is the question! Automation tools are, by nature, supposed to make your life easier. But when you’re stuck on the what and why, it can be difficult to get started.
When it comes to Marketing Cloud’s Automation Studio vs Journey Builder, a common problem we see people struggle with is knowing how to differentiate between the two, and which one they should use in certain scenarios.
In a nutshell, Automation Studio is a data management and processing platform best used for bulk data management and processing large volumes of data. While Automation Studio can seem like a complex creature, we guarantee you’ll be pleasantly surprised if you stick with it.
Journey Builder, on the other hand, is notably the simpler of the two functions, and there are many features you can tap into to take your email marketing to another level. Journey Builder is mostly used for one-to-one marketing journeys and is a useful way to plan and personalise customer journeys across different marketing channels.
Instead of getting bogged down in trying to understand the benefits of each feature and when to use them, we’ve created an entire eBook that explains all of that for you!
