The conversion rates, too, are better; they used to be lower, but they are now up by 30 to 35%.

Room For Improvement

Iterable excels in analytics and scalability but needs improvements in segmentation, CRM integrations, and template offerings for lifecycle journeys.
Users recommend improving LeadSquared's interface, reporting, automation, AI capabilities, integrations, support, dashboards, and enhancing AI-driven insights.
Segmentation rules could be significantly better, as from my experience with ten or more marketing automation tools, Iterable has limited options to create segments, which should be addressed immediately.
Senior Manager, Marketing Operations at a tech vendor with 1-10 employees
In general, the tool should be improved from a technical point of view; they should enhance speed and accuracy.
Director at a tech vendor with 501-1,000 employees
A steep learning curve for advanced use cases; basic campaigns are easy to launch, but advanced and personalized campaigns or event-based logic take considerable time.
Technical Writer at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Deeper AI-driven recommendations such as lead conversion predictions, risk identification, and next-best-action suggestions could help the sales team prioritize opportunities more effectively.
Senior Project Manager at Epicor Software
If LeadSquared had an inbuilt third-party integration such as Ameyo or Exotel for calling, or if LeadSquared improved the calling mechanism within the platform itself instead of relying on a third party, that would be an improvement.
Senior Manager Analytics at Infoedge
Governance is one of its strengths, especially for regulated industries.
Technical Project Manager at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
 

Setup Cost

Iterable offers cost-effective pricing, appealing to marketing teams with its affordable, easy setup compared to other solutions.

Digital Marketing Manager at Nestle
The licenses cost is also very less as compared to other CRM platforms.
Crm Analyst at Univo Edtech
LeadSquared provides significant ROI in tight budget scenarios as it balances functionality with ease of use.
Technical Project Manager at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
Compared to other top-niche products, they are less, and it is good.
Associate Technology Consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
 

Valuable Features

Iterable enhances customer engagement with automated workflows, personalization, scalability, and integration features, promoting efficiency and consistent messaging.
LeadSquared enhances efficiency with automation, customization, and integration, offering real-time insights, streamlined workflows, and improved lead management.
The workflow that we were using and creating for each client has a big impact on our clients and my company, because most of the time it reduces our work, our work stress, and we do not have to worry much for client communication because Iterable is already doing it for us.
Product Operations at a tech services company with 51-200 employees

Previously, the sales lead conversion rate was about 3,000 to 4,000 monthly, but now it has increased to 5,000, 6,000, or even 7,000 monthly conversion rates, significantly boosting our sales.

Digital Marketing Manager at Nestle
Marketing team has automated personalized lifecycle emails and now creates more engaging campaigns
The best features Iterable offers are automation and simplicity in use. Iterable is dynamic and allows us to engage customers at all stages of the customer journey. Iterable has allowed our customer communication to be automated. With thousands of customers, the ability to automate email communication has saved our team incredible amounts of time. While Iterable is used largely by our marketing team, we do have individuals who are less tech-savvy with limited coding experience, yet confident in navigating the platform. Iterable is very user-friendly and has maintained its simplicity. Iterable has saved our team an incredible amount of time and manual labor through automation of emailing. With the creative and engaging content created in Iterable, customers are more likely to engage than previously, hence increasing customer engagement. We have saved between sixty to seventy percent of our time through automation. Iterable has allowed us to automate email campaigns to customers by planning a series of emails six months prior to their delivery.
Soumi Ganguly - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Project Manager at Epicor Software
Automation has strengthened lead hygiene and reporting and drives faster sales conversions
One area for further enhancement is advanced analytics and predictive insights. While the platform provides robust reporting, deeper AI-driven recommendations such as lead conversion predictions, risk identification, and next-best-action suggestions could help the sales team prioritize opportunities more effectively. Improving user experience is another area; as organizations scale and workflows become more complex, simplifying configuration and creating more customizable dashboards could enhance adoption across business users. Additionally, expanding native integrations and reducing reliance on custom configurations for certain enterprise systems could streamline implementation further. Regarding support, I feel it should be more proactive, with spontaneous responses. Whenever I raised queries, I experienced longer wait times and had to wait for proper responses that were sometimes passed between multiple people. I believe when I ask a question, it should be assigned to the right person at the right time to reduce time consumption on both ends. LeadSquared automates many sales and marketing processes effectively, and there is an opportunity to strengthen its AI capabilities in areas such as predictive lead scoring, conversion forecasting, and next-best-action recommendations. AI-powered conversion analysis from calls, emails, and WhatsApp interactions could help identify customer intent, sentiments, and common objections, providing valuable insights for both the team and managers. For compliance and governance, a proper API should be created and integration should be structured to prevent lead leakage and data manipulation, which needs to be addressed by LeadSquared. I have noticed that it often does not provide accurate data and relies more on human intervention. When AI is integrated into any kind of software, it is expected to deliver the right outcomes and analyses. However, I have seen many cases where it provides only sixty-five to seventy percent accuracy, which I believe can be significantly improved.
