    I did not select ClickDimensions, this business decision was made by previous team members, who were not digital or marketing specialists, due to its integration with Dynamics. I'm sure the demo was great, but operationally it was not great.

    We selected ClickDimensions because it integrates with Dynamics 365. We previously used iContact, Survey Monkey, Outlook functionality, and Google Analytics. We went back to all of these after severing ties with ClickDimensions for our company. We continue to support …

    I prefer Act-On to ClickDimensions. I've studied both technologies and have been trained in them, but I find that Act-On is more suited to fit my needs and the needs of my team and organization as a whole. I think Act-On is more equipped to handle shifts in marketplace due to …

    I think the biggest difference is the overall easy integration with our CRM platform, which is crucial. Without it, we would not really even be able to use a marketing automation platform like this. We like the support our account manager gives us, and think CD is the best …

    ClickDimensions is great for SMB companies looking for an easy to use, robust platform especially in situations where there are only a few people within the Marketing Department.

    Pros
    ClickDimensions
    • The nurture campaign builder was great. Easy to use and to follow along with.
    • The drop and drag editor was easy to use and you could start using it with no training.
    • I always like when a service offers a certification for their product. ClickDimensions training was easy to follow, gave good content/tips/tricks and really helped me learn the platform.

    Cons
    ClickDimensions
    • Creating lists based on customer email behaviour was technically possible, but in practise nearly impossible
    • Managing customer preferences and subscriptions felt extremely convoluted
    • Interfaces generally not intuitive
    • Reporting was not in the class of competitors
    • Deliverability - seems like in onboarding basic things weren't checked off. We really needed a platform expert to implement.

    I see no reason for us to deprecate use at this point. It is important for us as a business to maintain our partnership with them and keep on the pulse of leading technology. ClickDimensions is a marketplace leader for the world of marketing automation, and in coordination with CRM, it's all the more relevant.

    Usability
    ClickDimensions
    I want to stay neutral. It's not that this product doesn't have appealing features or capabilities, it's that they aren't consistent and stable. So you lose data or your data is not accurate. Or some connection fails and the workflow doesn't trigger as it is supposed to, or the visits or clicks or other metrics contain bad data one month, then the next they're back to normal. This company needs to focus on getting their core product right and not on new features.

    Support Rating
    ClickDimensions
    You submit a ticket and they will always come back asking for more information. So the next time you try to be proactive and add that information to the original ticket, but then they come back and ask for something else. It gets to the point where you have to believe it is a stall tactic. You ask for more detail into their processes and you get the runaround. 9 times out of ten they will point the finger at Dynamics 365 as the culprit. It is like pulling teeth to get to Tier 2 support and then the questions start all over again, even if you send screenshots.

    Clickdimensions is severely impeded by its integration into Dynamics CRM. Consequently it lacks the Intuitiveness of HubSpot, and the straightforward usability of MailChimp. It is a perfect system if you want to exist entirely within Dynamics, but it requires a high degree of expertise in Dynamics to get maximum value out of it. We're currently migrating to HubSpot, and while the initial integration is proving challenging, I already sense we will be able to deliver a lot more of our marketing goals much more easily, and see an ROI.
