Overall Satisfaction with Marketo

Not the biggest fan of Marketo. It's flexible, powerful, has a lot of features, but in 2017 when marketing is all about speed. Marketo is way too slow! It just slows down the process of creating campaigns, has too many problems with its forms, and too many problems with CRM integrations.

Our team would love it if it was fast, modern looking, and didn't have so many issues with forms not loading / capturing data / syncing.

Looking at their company profile on LinkedIn you realize they have a ton of sales people and less tech people, confirming my belief that they're really great at selling the product but not the best at building new features.
  • Flexible
  • Customisable
  • Slow - extremely slow.
  • Sync issues - every single day we have a sync issue between Marketo and CRM
  • At least
  • Bugs everywhere - we get several messages from leads saying they couldn't fill out a form a month because Marketo failed. We're probably lossing a lot more leads than this.
  • Product Launches
  • Upsell
  • Cross-Sell
  • Lead Management
  • Prospecting / New Business
Remember it's 2017, technology should be quick.
