Pros

In general the capabilities within Marketing Resource Management seem like a platform built by marketers for marketers.
The out of the box processes are pretty
The uniformity of the user experience across modules makes user training and change management a lot We are still in early stages of using the reporting capabilities, but we can see lots of value in what they Unica was not as standardized.
We are still very much focused on adoption.

Cons

Very difficult to learn, confusing language and practically no help to speak of.
too easy to delete or close a project, and no way to reset or skip a step. (this happens all the time.)

I believe having an agency option would be great so that one could manage and build multiple brands for multiple clients.
Having sections for voice and personality would be great.
The ability to export a brand document to a .PDF to share with partners.

Aprimo 5.9

Based on 7 answers

Aprimo Marketing Suite On Demand (AMSOD) Is being sunsetted and we are not sold on V 9 yet. We will consider other options because we're not sure that we can justify $1m spend over 3 years to go to full tenant.

Usability

Aprimo 6.4

Based on 5 answers

It is a good system, but it is hard to understand it 100% at the beggining. There are quite things that are still complex, and the Help sections are not very clear.

Performance

Aprimo 8.0

Based on 2 answers

We are struggling with it though I think it’s our firewall i.e. an internal issue. Accessing the software outside or on mobile is faster.

They have a multi-tenant and single tenant option (more expensive) . We bought the single tenant option in anticipation of using Campaign Management and based upon our scale. You get more capabilities with single tenant

Support Rating

Aprimo 7.3

Based on 3 answers

Customer service has been responsive and attentive in line with the service we have bought. However, any organization that wants to make investments in Aprimo should plan to make an investment in internal support headcount to serve as the first line of defense for user issues and inquiries otherwise it could become too expensive.

We are on a standard service plan. You get 8 hours/month of whatever you want to ask them. This has been good enough. Will be buying more when we implement campaign management

Based on 1 answer

It was very generic and we took it prior to configuration. It was however adequate to educate our user in the basic capabilities that will have become available to them after deployment.

Implementation Rating

Aprimo 10.0

Based on 2 answers

We were very well supported. TopRight who performed the process/requirements definition as well as project management functions came with ample experience with various marketing automation platforms. They also came with very good multi-channel marketing experience that allowed them to tackle this implementation as a marketing deployment and not a technology deployment. TopRight bring expertise in multi-channels strategy.

Aprimo performed the configuration and training functions. Their personnel were very well versed in their platform and brought much empathy to a deployment that required a great deal of change management.

I am stunned by how many people (from for-profit sector who work here) have not been exposed to these types of platforms. I want to make sure that folks are so accustomed to user interface. When I roll-out campaign management, teaching them the art and science of campaign management versus just learning the tool. TopRight are marketers. They are familiar with all these technologies. Their job has been to define processes, best practices and turn into training. Similar to training from Salesforce.com about funnel mgmt etc, vs. just the product. We will create training modules that are agnostic to the platform

Canva is quicker/easier to use for a quick image design
Eloqua has greater email functionality
Aprimo was a cheaper cost at the time but products [are] in review always.

OpenBrand.com is not quite as visually appealing as Frontify, but it would be worth investigating if you are looking for brand management. I frequently use them in combination with each other and have a more appealing pricing structure.
