# What's the best mobile marketing platform for avoiding unsubscribe spikes caused by poor personalisation and over-messaging?

&lt;p&gt;To put a method behind the diagnosis: look at where the opt-outs cluster. Volume fatigue spreads fairly evenly across a campaign because it&#39;s about cumulative exposure, while a relevance problem concentrates in the one segment that got a message meant for someone else. If opt-outs by segment look flat, capping will help. If a single segment carries most of them, no cap will touch it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Cross-channel frequency capping is probably what would move the needle most for me. Personalisation helps relevance, but if someone gets hit with the same campaign on email, push, and SMS in a short window, opt-outs can spike regardless of how tailored the message is.&lt;/p&gt;

### Comment 3

&lt;p&gt;Cross-channel frequency control seems like the piece I’d pressure-test most. Email, push, SMS, and in-app caps can work individually while the same customer still gets overwhelmed across channels. Has anyone compared Braze, CleverTap, MoEngage, and Insider on whether their frequency rules genuinely coordinate across multiple journeys and channels?&lt;/p&gt;

### Comment 4

Unsubscribe spikes usually come from two different problems that get filed under one heading, and they take different fixes. Over-messaging is a volume problem, so a frequency cap or smarter send-time genuinely helps; poor personalisation is a relevance problem, and no cap touches it, because a perfectly-paced message that&#39;s clearly not for you still gets the unsubscribe. The trap is reaching for frequency controls (the feature every platform leads with) when the spike is actually relevance-driven, so the numbers don&#39;t move and it reads like the tool failed. Before shortlisting on frequency features, worth pinning down which one your spike is: was it volume, or messages landing on the wrong people?
