- Eloqua
We found Eloqua to be more difficult to use and not provide us with as much features for us to meet our goals. Marketo integrates well with SFDC which was very important to us. Marketo listens to its customers and tries to improve its features continuously throughout the year. Great product.

Learnings & Advice
We have utilized Marketo to increase our database, strengthen our message to customers, and drive business revenue. I have learned to focus on business goals for each campaign and move everyone from viewing vanity metrics to metrics that matter and tie to revenue. I have also learned how to increase interaction with our prospects.
Take time to build a center of excellence, define naming conventions, set up templates, etc to make sure that everything is easy to find. Add tags to be able to find things easier in the future.
The Marketo Community is a great place to find helpful information. Many long time Marketo users, Champions, and User Group leaders help answer questions. By asking questions on the community, you can quickly and easily get your questions answered.
