Product Details

What is Adobe Marketo Engage?

Adobe Marketo Engage, from Adobe since 2018, aims to help marketing teams drive demand and growth in their companies by delivering exceptional experiences in concert with sales at every stage of the customer journey.

The challenge these teams face is that everyone today expects a personalized experience whenever they interact with a company - they don’t have patience for generic marketing and the last thing they want is a cold call from sales. So to stay competitive, marketing teams are scrambling to understand customers better, so they can give them a better experience, because this is disrupting entire industries. And a big part of what’s needed is figuring out how marketing and sales can do a better job together.

Adobe Marketo Engage aims to redefine Marketing Automation by helping these companies bring together the customer data, content, automation and analytics needed for marketing and sales to coordinate engagement with customers that’s personalized and measurable at every touchpoint - and do it with efficiency and scale.

  • The trigger and batch workflow logic (smart campaigns) possibilities are endless and they are able to run in real-time without slowing down the instance (an issue I've seen with real-time automation in some other platforms)
  • SFDC integration is every 5 minutes - one of the fastest out there
  • Engagement streams - make it really easy to build and manage drip email nurture

  • Tokens! Marketo has the capability to use tokens not only in emails, but in operational aspects like scoring. We review our scoring model on a yearly basis and going in and editing a token with a new applied score is so much easier than filtering through 50+ campaigns to find the scoring flow step and modifying from the smart campaign.
  • Reporting & Analytics. We use Marketo for reporting on email performance day-to-dayand on an quarterly basis to drive our changes in engaging our prospects & customers through email. We also set up subscriptions for the sales teams to receive weekly web activity reports for their territory.
  • Acquisition Programs and lead sourcing. It's so easy to know how someone comes in to your company with these in Marketo.

  • Tokens: These are a scalable solution to pulling in data into emails, landing pages or marketo smart campaign flow steps.
  • Smart Campaigns: Very basic feature of Marketo, but I use them daily/hourly to run processes in Marketo
  • LaunchPoint: Marketo can integrate with many other MarTech apps. This feature helps with transferring data from one app to Marketo.

  • The automatic integration into Salesforce is a very useful feature, pending the system's ability to process the queue in an efficient manner. This is helpful in removing potential ETL/data engineering involvement.
  • Frankly I am really excited about the Adobe acquisition of Marketo because I foresee this enabling tracking with web pixels capturing behavior from the initial "anonymous behaviors" up through filling out Marketo forms and converting the lead into Salesforce.
  • Marketo's ability to provide insights and identify hot leads is also very useful in helping marketing automation and sales automation optimize their workflows.

  • Engagement Nurture programs are the best automated feature of Marketo. Once you set them up, they run by themselves and you can drag in content easily on a regular basis. Does take a bit of thought, which I've written about to make this easier.
  • Email Delivery reports (Email Performance Reports) - great tables of what occurred when sending an email or overall delivery rates.
  • Email 2.0 - the module system is a huge leap forward and if you can create a great Master Template, you can empower marketers to be self service and rapidly push out emails.

  • Email 2.0 editor - great drag and drop functionality

  • Ability to use Triggers: Other marketing automation platforms can't do that (like trigger an action off of a data value change). This is so powerful, and in my opinion it is necessary!
  • Unlimited fields: At least I haven't reach a maximum yet, but I'm sure if I went super crazy they might have something to say about it!
  • Ease of use: Marketo is intuitive, easy to navigate, and easy to do things quickly

  • A/B email testing - It gives me the ability to test multiple subject lines and the date and time of when the email will be sent.
  • Marketo Community - I log into the community weekly for tips & best practices, troubleshooting help, or just to extend my knowledge of different features.
  • Smart Lists - It makes it easier to build programs based on persona or other specific attributes.

  • Smart Lists - with great ease, you can slice and dice your database with great precision.
  • Dynamic Content - although we don't use this feature very frequently, it is super easy to set up and allows to save a ton of time by only creating essentially one email for multiple audiences
  • Choices in flow steps - allows you to streamline the number of smart campaigns you have to build while still delivering different emails to different audiences. This has saved me tons of time.

  • Segmentations! You can build segmentations for the most common segments you use and this makes it so easy to create target lists for new campaigns.
  • A/B testing! This has allowed us to compare the performance of different subject lines and email designs and leverage the top performers for successful campaigns.
  • Salesforce integration! Without this, the ability for our Demand Gen team to align with Sales would be extremely difficult.

  • Programs because I can easily create a full marketing campaign in one folder that I can also duplicate.
  • Cloning anything I need to create a similar but new asset, campaign, or program.
  • Reporting that allows me to focus on an individual or a large audience. I can create a view of my ROI and my impact on the business from Marketo Analytics.
