RudderStack vs. Segment
Itâs time to take a modern approach to your customer data platform. RudderStack is the best alternative to Twilioâs CDP offering because we solve your event data integration challenges with an open source tool, a warehouse-first approach to customer data management, and a pricing model designed for scale.
RudderStack is the only Segment alternative that enables you to turn warehouse data into an event stream via Reverse ETL and send it to every destination in your stack.
Talk to SalesHere are the top reasons companies choose RudderStack over Segment
Built for developers
RudderStack is open source and built for developers including Github integrations and an API-first approach to data management, so you can seamlessly integrate it with your existing stack and workflow.
Warehouse-first
No more SaaS vendor lock-in. RudderStack treats your data warehouse as a first-class citizen and provides unique features to unify and unlock the data inside. Aggregate user behavior data and build complete customer profiles in your warehouse to drive data visualization and enrich data for use cases to serve every teamâall with a little SQL (or our library of dbt models).
Complete customer data control
Say goodbye to GDPR and InfoSec concerns. RudderStack doesnât store any data. Instead, our data pipelines build your customer data lake and your identity graph on your data warehouse, giving you complete control over your customer data.
Scalable, usage-based pricing
RudderStackâs pricing is sensible. Itâs based purely on event volume, not on MTUs (monthly tracked users) like Segmentâs model. Our model works for small businesses, startups, and Fortune 100 enterprise companies alike.

âWhen it came down to deciding between the two options, there wasnât a question. We chose RudderStack as the foundation for our real-time customer data platform to enable data-driven personalized engagement online.â
