In its favor
Why people choose Taguchi
The signal that keeps Taguchi on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.
Multi-channel automation spanning email, SMS, and triggered journeys from a single subscriber record
Advanced workflow automation with behavioral triggers and activity-based conditions
Detailed per-subscriber behavioral history including clicks, opens, and custom events
Custom field flexibility with calculated fields and per-subscriber key-value data
Organizational clustering to segment subscriber populations by region or brand
List membership immutability — once a subscriber is added to a list, the association cannot be removed via API
Bounced subscriber flagging is permanent and irreversible without Taguchi Support involvement, blocking re-engagement
Export limitations — the platform lacks a documented bulk export endpoint, making full data pull migration-dependent on API scripting
Custom field deletion is soft-only — fields removed from the UI remain tagged to subscriber profiles, causing schema drift
Limited public documentation on rate limits and API versioning makes integration planning uncertain

Pricing tiers
Taguchi pricing overview
Taguchi Marketing (taguchi.com.au) does not publish pricing publicly. The Australian-owned platform (founded 2009, offices in Melbourne, Sydney and Singapore) operates a custom-quote model tied to subscriber volume, channel mix (email, SMS, push, mobile wallet, web), franchise/store count and integration scope. Quotes are issued after a discovery call. Note: catalog website (taguchiwomensclinic.com) actually points to a women's clinic — confirm the customer is on Taguchi Marketing before scoping.

What gets migrated
Taguchi object support
Object-by-object support for Taguchi migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.
Subscribers
Fully supportedThe primary contact object in Taguchi. Contains email, status (active/bounced/unsubscribed), organization link, and read-only metadata fields (campaign source, import source, cluster). We migrate all standard subscriber fields and explicitly map the status flag to suppress bounced records on the destination.
Custom Fields
Fully supportedTaguchi stores arbitrary key-value pairs per subscriber. Field keys are unique per subscriber and fields cannot be deleted once created (they persist with null values). We preserve all field keys and values, flagging any nulls explicitly so the destination schema can accommodate optional fields.
List Memberships
Mapping requiredSubscribers belong to Lists. List memberships can be created and updated via API but can never be deleted. We map list memberships to tag equivalents on the destination. Customers should confirm their target system's tag model before scoping the import.
Campaigns
Mapping requiredCampaigns link subscribers and activities. We migrate campaign associations as metadata on subscriber records rather than as standalone objects, since most destination CRMs do not have a native Campaign object equivalent in the contact model.
Broadcasts
Mapping requiredOne-time email sends to subscriber segments. We preserve broadcast metadata (name, send date, recipient count) as a linked activity log against each subscriber record rather than as a top-level object.
Activities
Mapping requiredTaguchi logs per-subscriber events (opens, clicks, custom events) used to drive automation triggers. We extract activity history and write it as engagement records on the destination Contact, preserving the event type and timestamp.
Organizations
Mapping requiredEach subscriber is linked to an owning Organization. We map this as a Company or Account association on the destination CRM contact record.
Clusters
Mapping requiredClusters identify the subscriber segment a contact is most strongly associated with. We map clusters as a custom Contact property or tag on the destination system.
Automation Workflows
Not in this platformTaguchi automation workflows and journey logic are rule-driven configurations that do not map cleanly to other platforms. We do not migrate automation workflows. We preserve the underlying data (subscribers, activities, triggers) that would allow workflows to be rebuilt on the destination.
SMS Messages
Mapping requiredSMS send history is migrated as a message activity record on the subscriber. Content and scheduling metadata are preserved. Note that phone number fields must be present and validated on the subscriber record for SMS data to be meaningful.
