Overall Satisfaction with Marketo
We use Marketo in our Marketing department as our Marketing Automation platform in managing our campaigns, email campaigns, lead/prospect management, and scoring. It helps us to manage the lead life cycle, score and prioritize the lead based on demographic and behavioral attributes, and integrate with our CRM systems.
We use Sales Insights to provide information about their behavioral attributes, interesting moments, and to score changes to the salesperson, which helps them in their sales motion.
Marketo is integrated with other data vendor APIs in ensuring the higher data quality of our prospecting data. It is also integrated with other Martech vendor APIs in automating our marketing activities.

- User experience. It is very easy to use and faster to onboard the Marketers. Not much deep technical knowledge is required.
- Configurable. The platform is easy to configure with rule and workflow based architecture.
- APIs and Ecosystem partners -- They have very broad ecosystems and integrations with many Martech vendors. They also have broad range APIs, which makes it easy to integrate and enhance the platform.
- Integration with SFDC: This is the weakest link in Marketo. There's not much control on the volume, timing, and frequency of integration with SFDC without hitting other issues.
- Flexibility with the data schema -- the data schema is rigid, especially in creating custom tables and rules and then syncing them with the CRM system.
- The rules and workflow-based architecture will very quickly become difficult and complex to manage multiple sets of branched and dependent rules.
- Does not have the flexibility to build your own customization, rules, and analytics. You will be limited within their pre-defined packages and architecture.
