Overall Satisfaction with Dataloader.io

For my application, Dataloader.io is being used by the marketing department to upload prospects into the marketing data tables in Salesforce.com. The main advantage to using the Dataloader.io app is that is saves countless hours versus doing manual data entry into the marketing database.
  • It provides a simple, step-by-step process for uploading new data into Salesforce.
  • The upload process is very efficient and can upload/delete/update a large number of records very quickly.
  • For repeated tasks, Dataloader.io allows you to save your upload process for subsequent work.
  • Dataloader.io has a good error checking function that alerts you to errors and puts them in an easy format to correct.
  • I've found that, at times, the Dataloader.io app will be working on a upload process and not provide feedback that the process is still active.
  • It can take a bit of time to set up the initial process for an upload.
  • It would be nice if the app supported additional file formats for data uploads.
  • Saves hours vs. manual data entry of getting records into Salesforce which saves a lot of money.
  • Makes our IT group more efficient by pulling them out of standard data upload tasks that can be done by less technical folks.
  • Allows the marketing department to more quickly communicate with their prospects by quickly getting them in to Salesforce, thus helping with sales.
Dataloader.io was already in place when I started my consulting work for the client so I was not part of the evaluation process. Regardless, I don't think that there would be a more optimal solution for my client than the one the chose.
Dataloader.io is very well suited for use by individuals that may not have the detailed technical ability to otherwise do a data upload ... once of course, the basic process is created by someone with a more technical ability. By and large, we've found that for our specific marketing application of getting reasonably small batches (500 or less) of prospects into Salesforce, we couldn't find a better application than Dataloader.io! We've been very happy with the way it operates and how well it works.
