Pushwoosh offers more powerful segmentation at scale
Pushwoosh’s segmentation helps you create hyper-targeted campaigns with minimal effort:
It generates dynamic segments based on user attributes and behaviors.
It lets you identify users with high potential for monetization via RFM segmentation.
This method limits real-time event data integration and is more complicated to manage.
OneSignal primarily focuses on user attributes and only offers behavior-based segmentation via tagging.
Pushwoosh's targeting is precise and effective. All messages came relevant to our international audience.

Pushwoosh helps you design dynamic user journeys more easily
Pushwoosh Customer Journey Builder provides advanced journey mapping with a flexible campaign setup:
Manage event triggers directly in the campaign interface.
Use the “Wait for trigger” element to automatically respond to real-time user actions.
OneSignal also requires manual adjustments for time zones and recurring messaging.
OneSignal Journeys supports event-based triggers using data tags. It requires complex manual setup and constant technical involvement.
