TR
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.

New Product Introduction Manager at Buffalo Wild Wings - Fralich, Inc.
Improves our marketing efficiency in a consolidated platform, with features such as behavior-based email triggers
Interface and design consistency are my two significant cons for this platform. Like most, once you know the platform and its interface, you can be very successful. There is no difference here except that the design process between creating emails, pages, and forms all have their unique process. I believe it would improve user efficiency if the page and email creator, for instance, had a standard procedure and the same layout of tools. The platform has a lot of features with more coming, so you have to know where all the pieces are between the settings, marketing, and sales menu layout.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Iterable positively impacts my organization because it is our main platform that we use in order to communicate with our customers, so its value is one hundred percent."
"We achieved really positive numbers related to retention, with our retention growing twofold and fourfold over the two years I was there, due to having a tool that allowed us to better communicate with our customers and create campaigns that could target a far greater audience base on more event-based triggers versus mass sending to users."
"Iterable is one of the best, efficient, and user-friendly CRM campaign management tools."
"Iterable has positively impacted my organization, as it enhanced campaign execution speed, increased engagement and conversion rates through personalization, reduced our dependency on engineering for routine campaign changes, and improved collaboration between marketing and technical teams."
"Iterable helped my team and key metrics significantly, allowing us to save up to 30% of the time, and the speed of overall operation efficiency has improved."
"Iterable allows us to trigger SMS messages through Twilio based on real-time user events such as abandoned actions, incomplete transactions, account or subscription changes, inactivity or re-engagement milestones."
"Miro Business - Enterprise has been a lifesaver for us, increasing team collaboration by 70 to 80% and saving our time and resources."
"Iterable has positively impacted our organization as we have seen an improvement since geolocation features improved our weekly email conversion rate by 300%."
"We can trigger emails and actions based on their behaviors, which is very beneficial."
"We got a 30% increase in email open rates due to relevant targeting, 30% increase in overall leads, 12-15 man-hours savings per week due to automation."
"With this product, we are able to do so much more with our marketing."
 

Cons

"Customer support is a five out of ten. Iterable's customer support is not very good; they are unresponsive about 50% of the time."
"That is something that is currently frustrating."
"Iterable has a straightforward and impressive setup, but there are some nuances relating to how the setup works when operating in different markets."
"When I consider needed improvements, I find that the limitation in handling many brands in a single project can be problematic, which affects the use of custom event data within Handlebar logic, and the foldering option for snippets and lists needs improvement."
"I would like more training and resources on how to use Iterable."
"Iterable can be improved regarding handling attributes, as it has limited limitations on event attributes and profile attributes."
"However, the challenge occurs when a large number of users are simultaneously on the whiteboards, but otherwise, there is no problem with scalability."
"One area where Iterable could be improved is usability when Journeys become very complex."
"Customer service is good, but the Netcore Smartech team should strive for improving it further. EMM customer service was far better than Smartech customer service as Smartech needs better coordination between Netcore back end teams, which needs to be improved."
"Interface and design consistency are my two significant cons for this platform."
