1. Personalizing Interactions Module
Data Cloud for Marketing (starts at $108,000/year)
The Data Cloud for Marketing consolidates up-to-date data from various sources such as marketing, sales, commerce, service, loyalty programs, and more. This data integration aims to establish a unified profile for each customer.

- Growth ($35,000 per org per month)
- Advanced ($45,000 per org per month)
There is a lot of overlap across these pricing tiers with a few key differences:
- Starter does not enable full Benefits Management, which provides the ability to configure experiential benefits and automatically trigger actions in Salesforce, such as service entitlements, vouchers etc.

- Advanced ($4,000 per month up to 10,000 contacts)
- Premium ($15,000 per month up to 75,000 contacts)
Most popular (according to Salesforce) is the Advanced package because it includes advanced analytics reportings (not included in Growth Package), as well as Developer Sandboxes to allow further customization and AI features (not included in Plus Package).
