Our take

It is no secret that customers have come to expect more streamlined engagement in recent years, and that businesses need to deliver focussed, high-quality, cross-channel interactions in order to secure more and better value clients. MessageGears provides an enterprise-grade, warehouse-native customer engagement platform to help companies put their customers "at the center" of marketing efforts, and capitalise on stronger customer relationships.

With MessageGears' platform, businesses can hyper-personalize communication with customers at enterprise scale, as well as leveraging data on customer interactions to further optimize customer experiences. The company's competitors include the likes of Iterable and Batch, but it has carved itself a space in the market with upwards of 50 customers, including Expedia, T-Mobile, and Rakuten.
