Lifecycle Marketing Lead in Marketing at Printful Inc (1001-5000 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Iterable is our omnichannel automation platform that serves various team needs across strategic segments. It addresses the need to orchestrate multiple channels without conflicts and personalise these messages. This delivers optimal UX for our clients and allows us to maintain high messaging quality without burning channels or rendering them ineffective.

Pros

Personalization of the messages sent via Iterable.
Multi language management.
Improving workflow for teams operating with Iterable reducing resources spent.
Reduces the need of developer resources.
orchestrating omni channel marketing.

Cons

In-app channel, although it works, has some shortcomings in UI functionality or system backend logic, which suggests it is built on an email send-out architecture.
Drag and drop editor has its own limitations - it isn't perfect. You can't create some basic designs.

Return on Investment

Time to market has decreased by multiple days, and resources spent to launch initiatives have decreased compared to various alternatives.
Multiple initiatives that deliver positive ROI have been launched, which couldn't be done on the previous sendout platform, thanks to Handlebar templating language, the data catalog function, and iterable CS resources.

Marketing Manager in Marketing at OneVision Resources (51-200 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

As marketing manager at OneVision Resources (6/22-6/24), I was a power user of Iterable, activating it to send upwards of 30,000 emails per month for welcome sequences and full client lifecycle support. We used it to prevent churn, to keep the clients of our partners aware of additional services, etc.

Pros

Extremely friendly interface that makes work pleasant daily (power) users
Fantastic customer account managers and client support
Up-to-date uses of AI balanced with creative tools for marketers

Cons

It's hard to think of any down sides ...
Anything that is missing usually gets routed to the Product department at Iterable, where it is seriously considered (as I have seen in customer roundtables to which I've been invited)

Return on Investment

Using Iterable played a significant role in our 10x growth in a period of months, during which we pivoted the product
My CEO calculated a lifetime customer value of $11m over the 2 years that I used Iterable

Manager in Marketing (201-500 employees employees)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Iterable to communicate with our customers via marketing messages, transactional messages, and SMS. We find the flexibility to implement the solution that fits the needs of the message, personalization, or multi-step workflow is much greater with Iterable than with our previous email platform.

Pros

Iterable's customer support, both through the account manager and their live chat and email responses, is great.
The flexibility with third-party integrations made getting our project off the ground fairly simple.
The handlebar logic that can be used within the templates was much easier to understand than on some other platforms.

Cons

The SMS integration with Twilio is confusing at times, and without direct access to an SMS management interface is limiting.

Return on Investment

This is a hard thing to qualify with the short amount of time we have had on the platform and with the changes that have occurred since onboarding. iOS 15 was released, so we are learning new ways of measuring the ROI.
The ease of integration with other tools has helped us begin to break into more personalized emails for our customers. We have really only scratched the surface and have so much farther to go!
