Featured Reviews

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.
Madhan Krishnamoorthy - PeerSpot reviewer

Integration with CRM and third-party systems significantly boosts campaign management
The native integration could be improved, as Oracle Eloqua has decommissioned it. Manual uploads require changing the data priority order to top priority. Sometimes form capturing data fails, and campaign response issues occur. The pricing of Oracle Eloqua is quite high as it is an Oracle product. Compared to other marketing automation platforms such as Marketo, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, and Pardot, the price point is higher. The technical support is rated at eight because it can be difficult to get in touch with them after working hours. Support is only available during business hours, so if assistance is needed outside of the nine-to-five window, users must wait until the next day.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Since switching from Google Sheets to LeadSquared, I have seen significant outcomes; once we moved to LeadSquared, we have visibility, we understand which salesperson has how many leads and what the conversion rate is, we can measure all these things in LeadSquared, and this improved our decision-making, with the conversion rate increasing by about 30 to 35% after moving to LeadSquared."
"LeadSquared is an easy tool to adopt and get going with, as it is plug and play."
"I am not recalling all the features right now, but I can definitely say that LeadSquared is best for managing contacts and managing leads."
"The ROI was multiple-fold, as I leveled up with my initial LeadSquared investment within months thanks to new nurture and lead automation campaigns driving conversions, and I previously required three team members for tasks but streamlined that to one individual, yielding significant ROI as my retention and cancellation rates improved from 12% to 27%."
"The most valuable feature of LeadSquared is an easy-to-understand user interface."
"The most valuable feature of LeadSquared is the customization."
"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."
"LeadSquared has positively impacted my organization by allowing us to manage a lot of leads we previously could not handle effectively."
"Oracle Eloqua is easier to use compared to Salesforce Marketing Cloud because Salesforce requires their own scripting called AMPScript, while in Oracle Eloqua, you only need CSS, HTML, and occasionally JavaScript."
"Once you get the knowledge to use it, Eloqua is so powerful."
"The most valuable feature for us is that it integrates with our CRM content management system."
"Eloqua has a drag-and-drop interface based on HTML5 and is the easiest WYSIWYG editor for creating landing pages and HTML emails that I've ever seen."
"Eloqua's marketing automation tool has made me not only a better marketer but has given me a new outlook on marketing."
"Lead scoring has helped with the process of qualifying leads."
"Eloqua is a fantastic tool for managing your communication strategy and your contact strategy."
"Eloqua is very powerful and very customizable."
 

Cons

"Overall, LeadSquared is a solid platform, but there are things that could improve."
"The solution can get quite expensive, especially as you add more users."
"The solution’s UI could be more user-friendly."
"I have not seen any return on investment."

"LeadSquared can be improved on various parameters."
"LeadSquared can be improved by increasing automation slightly."

"Email WYSWIG editor is far from being the best I've seen, I recommend to work with FrontPage or Dreamweaver before and copy HTML code."
"Oracle Eloqua requires maintenance because downtime or crashes can affect form submissions and integrations."
"The product's initial setup process could be better."
"The dashboards or the data which we get from insights reports could be improved."
"One improvement I would suggest for Oracle Eloqua is establishing data modeling capabilities where you can link various custom data objects to create multiple tables together, allowing access to data through SQL queries for better manipulation."
"There are some limitations with the platform in terms of creativity."
"Data manipulation tools are lacking. Documentation is sketchy and often incomplete."
"​Reporting is very clunky and not user friendly.​"
