Cheetah Digital Customer Engagement Suite (discontinued) vs. Maropost Marketing Cloud

I think that Cheetah is specifically well suited for personalized, relevant messaging to customers. They help provide tools to give users the ability to create campaigns that will generate positive interpretations and help move your business forward.

Maropost is a little more expensive than its competitors. I'd say Maropost is well suited for medium and larger businesses, not small businesses unless they're really good at utilizing e-mail and monetizing it.

Incentivized

• It offers social media tracking, which is a big competitive advantage against its rivals.
• Email targeting options are better than MailChimp.
• Good price.

Incentivized

• Maropost is particularly strong in the customization aspect. As a sales person, I love using MSC because I can customize everything from A-Z.
• The features are endless, a personal fav is the Journey's feature with Marketing Cloud.
• Client support is quick to respond.

• I would love more ability to create programmatic campaigns that follow customers on a lifecycle.
• Continue to improve the user interface to make all features more usable to their users.

Incentivized

• The Sales Department shouldn't promise the customer what support can't deliver on.
• They should also brush up on some ethics courses. It's appalling to me how they conduct business. Buyer beware.

Cheetah has never been known for its customer service and the few times I had to contact the answers I got were either incomplete or not really useful for the problem I was having at the moment. I think there is a lot of room for improvement in this aspect.

Incentivized

Though relatively responsive, the responses were always utterly unhelpful and sometime not even relevant to the questions we asked. It quickly became apparent that it was outsourced copy/paste support.

They are very comparable to each other. Cheetah is a little more user-friendly and the customer service is much better, but Responsys had more features that I liked to use.

Incentivized

Maropost had everything we needed and more. We loved that fact that one price covered everything. As we move forward we don't have to go back and purchase modules that we are now ready for. No one wants to go back to management and ask for more money

Incentivized

• It has raised costs due to its price, reducing ROI.
• However, we have gotten good results and great CPAs with them, improving margins.
• It has allowed us to be faster on testing, improving ROI in the long term.

Incentivized

• Lack of data and information about our users that we can use to get smarter in our segmentation hurts us in that we lose branded deals or partnerships.
• Takes too much time to export reports and gain attrition reporting information, manually preparing reports is not a good use of time for anyone on our team.
