    Epsilon
    Appropriate for large organizations who want customization in their emails. The tool - while intuitive if you have previous background - is hefty and large in scope of capabilities. It's great for organizations who have multiple users and shows the name of person who last made changes. The reporting is really good - but may be a bit overwhelming for organizations who don't need a lot of detailed information

    FreeRADIUS is completely scalable and supports both large and small user databases. Because it doesn't take up a lot of server resources, FreeRADIUS is well-suited for organizations with small budgets (it's in the name!) and limited networking hardware. While there is a port of it for Windows, FreeRADIUS is native to Linux so that would be a limitation for many companies who don't use it.

    Cons
    Epsilon
    • The tool could be improved to "remember" where you last left off (specific user). Having to constantly retrace steps if you get logged out is annoying.
    • Hitting the "back" arrow sends you back to a main section, when it should send you back to where you previously were.
    • It would be nice to see performance reports available within the campaign itself, as well as within the reporting section.
    • Ability to NOT be able to change anything in a campaign after it has launched. This has happened multiple times. We usually copy a previous campaign to start a new one but often, we end up changing content on the version we are copying from -- this is very annoying and dangerous.

    • FreeRADIUS requires a 3rd party interface to make it easier to access (we use Daloradius) - it would nice if it was built in.
    • Installation and configuration are pretty easy and straightforward but does require connecting to a database which can be cumbersome.

    While both Epsilon Agility Harmony and Oracle Responsys are great for larger organizations that send a lot of emails, I think Epsilon Agility Harmony is more robust than Responsys and is easier to use. It is significantly more complex than HubSpot and requires previous knowledge of using an email tool that has content blocks and or dynamic content.

    Return on Investment
    Epsilon
    • Increased email production = more communication to customers.
    • Better reporting = determine areas for improvement or scale up efforts.
    • Working on getting our triggered emails optimized - there's a great opportunity for this with this tool.

    • We previously used Microsoft Network Policy Server for our RADIUS authentication which works ok but was pretty clunky and requires Windows Server. Switching to FreeRADIUS brought our cost down to zero.
    • Because FreeRADIUS works natively in Linux it's easy to setup and works with all distros.
    • FreeRADIUS allows us to have user authentication for wifi which is much more secure than a simple shared password solution.
