Can Both DTM and Launch Be On A Site?

There is DTM being used on a site. Could Launch also be on the site at the same time? And would data collected from Launch go into a separate report suite?

No, you can't use DTM and Launch on the same page. 

Both DTM and Launch use the global variable window._satellite.  So, whichever library loaded last would overwrite the other and things would break.

You could do it, and data would g where you point it.

But not a great idea to put any two tag managers on the same page. It may interfere with each other and cause problems

Hi,

If I use DTM to send data to report suite A and launch to send data to report suite B, how would it overwrite values if its sending data to two different report suites. would it still cause problem?

As Ben mentioned both DTM and Launch use the _satellite object so the script that is loaded last will overwrite this object and thus also overwrite the settings like report suite.

Would it overwrite even if I use two different tracking variables?
