Overall Satisfaction with Marketo

Marketo is being used globally across three teams. We use Marketo for marketing automation and are working to implement Marketo Sales Insight with our lead development teams as well as sales.

Pros

  • Marketo makes things very organized.
  • Marketo lays out a lot of reporting and analytics that are easy to understand.
  • Our Marketo team has helped us become smarter marketers with things we previously did on our old platform.

Cons

  • A lot of our issues have been resolved with the new email editor.
  • Learning the technology was troublesome.
SEO - this is what we are currently working on.
Marketo is very different from Eloqua. Both can do a lot of the same things, however with Eloqua you had to do more thinking to find the "loopholes" to make it work, whereas Marketo has so much of it pre-built for you.
Its very well suited if you're starting from scratch. It was difficult to migrate from another platform but worth it.
