Epsilon PeopleCloud vs. SALESmanago

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

I find SalesManago to be a good tool for email marketing and automation processes. They live chat service allows fast and direct communication with customers. Website personalisation (tools like pop-ups and browser notification) work fine but I'd like to have a bit more personalisation options to be avalaible to users.

• Fairly intuitive if you have previous experience with high-end email tools.
• The training opportunities are good - they offer both online and/or live training.
• The support we receive is very good.
• The reporting feature is good - a lot of detailed information.

• Segmentation - you can segment people in many ways (e.g using tags, rfm matrices, sales funnels, dynamic segments).
• Automation flows - using workflows, automation rules, and website automations you can automatically do marketing actions after a trigger and in specific conditions. You have a lot of events, conditions and actions
• Product Recommendations - this tool allow you to recommend products on your website. Maybe it's not quick to prepare it but the results at the end are awesome
• RFM Segmentation - this is a great tool to segment and reach people according to their RFM profile

• 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.

• Their expansion into the US has not been very successful, and if you are a West Coast customer want training, be prepared to get up at 4 a.m.
• While their functionality is comparable to competing products there is nothing particularly unique to what they offer
• Their instructional literature was obviously not produced by people for who English is a first language and they are not particularly English proficient.

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.

• 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.
