Overall Satisfaction with Oracle Eloqua

I used Oracle Eloqua to help manage a leads list for my freelance business. While it was great at managing my lists, I actually found the service too advanced for my needs.
  • Helping B2B companies with automating marketing. For businesses that have a complex multi-touch leads journey, this service allows companies to "set it and forget it" with custom sequences and automated outreach journeys.
  • Managing leads list
  • Managing customer journeys
  • Solutions for smaller businesses
  • Solutions for freelancers
The product is highly scalable as a self-service automation tool. While I evaluated the tool as a freelance business, I can see how an integrated B2B marketing team could benefit from the suite.
  • Efficiency improvements. For the time I was evaluating the service, it helped me automate lead gen and lead nurturing.
  • Retaining repeat clients generated additional revenue.
Great for larger B2B organizations with frequent outreach to clients and need for automation in that outreach. Not as well suited for smaller businesses or freelancers with less frequent communication needs. I found that the automation features were complicated and hard to understand for one person, also requiring a lot of set-up time on my end. I could see set-up being much easier for a team sharing the onboarding.
