A Year in Review: 2021

2021 a year in review header

2021 was an unpredictable year, to say the least. Though many people viewed this past year as 2020 part 2 — and the martech space experienced changes of its own (the death of cookies and the release of iOS 15, anyone?) — we at Blueshift are proud to share all we accomplished in 2021 that made it a year worth celebrating for our team. Despite the struggles we faced internally and externally, including a record number of sick days taken, we powered through and were able to reach milestones that improved our platform and continued to bring success to our customers.

Check out our noteworthy achievements and resources from 2021 below.

AWARDS

G2 + MORPHeus Awards + Hackathon

G2 is the hub of software reviews that marketers depend on to decide which customer data platform is right for their company’s goals. Each quarter in 2021, Blueshift was named a Leader or Momentum Leader in multiple G2 categories, including CDP, Marketing Automation, Mobile Marketing, and more. Read what our happy customers had to say about Blueshift in the announcements below:

On a quarterly basis, Blueshift employees nominate our fellow teammates and peers to be honored with a MORPHeus Award (MORPH being the acronym for our five core values). The MORPHeus Award winners this past year were chosen for encompassing three of those five attributes: Raising the Bar, Playing as One Team, and Having Fun, Seriously! Learn more about the 2021 winners here:

In addition to the awards above, we also held our annual Hackathon, where members of various departments collaborate to generate new ideas that can help make our product more innovative and productive. After forming teams, Hackathon participants put together a presentation to share their ideas with the whole company. Leadership then reviews the presentations and selects winners whose ideas will be implemented into the Blueshift platform — plus, the selected winners receive a cash prize. While we can’t reveal the winning ideas just yet (shh…it’s a secret), we’ll be excited to provide updates once they’re released to the public.

Oh, did we also mention we were recognized on Deloitte’s 2021 Technology Fast 500?
