Manage campaigns from start to finish, good integration, and a powerful email template builder

I would like to see support for new social communication tools, and improvements to the web page monitoring capabilities. Improvements can be made to the outbound chat campaigns so that we can include them in marketing campaigns. This would be a new element to use in case email is not good for the client. For example, there are university students who prefer to receive info via their phone, rather than in email. It is possible to do this, but I think it is something that can be improved because social communication networks yield a much better response than the "old" email campaigns.

Integration challenges impact workflow efficiency

The features of Salesforce Marketing Cloud that I have found most valuable are the Journey Builder and Flow. These capabilities are valuable because they make managing automation easy. Automating customer journeys saves time when scheduling content through every channel, and we can set the automation in advance when planning marketing content. The AI-powered tools such as Salesforce Datorama and Einstein save time and have an impact on marketing strategy decisions for my customers. I have noticed a positive impact from Salesforce Marketing Cloud through customer feedback. For example, a customer mentioned after project completion that it had a significant impact on their marketing team by eliminating the need to hire additional staff for marketing content and planning.

Cons

"I would like to see support for new social communication tools, and improvements to the web page monitoring capabilities."

"There could be easier tools to configure the product and to create landing pages to better handle large data sets."

"The cost is always a concern for anyone using a SaaS product."

"The data extension tools are not very user-friendly."

"The encryption and decryption have room for improvement."

"The technicality of the solution can be streamlined."

"In the SMS area, it is not up to the mark, compared to what has been developed for email."

"This solution could be more user-friendly."

"Salesforce Marketing Cloud could improve by having more graphical options because a lot of tables are now only numbers and percentages and data. I prefer graphs, lines, and pie charts. I know there are ways to receive this from Salesforce Marketing Cloud. It doesn't play a huge role in my daily work to invest the time to figure it out. I feel that it would be time wasted. They could make the graphical options easier to find and use in the future."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Considering that we have many tools and components available in this one platform, the price of this product is low."

"The price is expensive."

"Its licensing is on an annual basis. Customers are okay with its licensing cost, and they don't find it expensive."

"This solution is priced in the medium to high price range."

"We have two types of licensing. We have a yearly license for end users and we have a concurrent login for selling."

"It's not cheap, which is why I recommend that you use Marketing Cloud to create automated journeys. If you plan to use Marketing Cloud just to send emails, use another tool."

"I don't know if my company pays for Salesforce Marketing Cloud monthly or yearly. It's a SaaS, so it's a recurring cost, but I have no information on its price."

"Salesforce Marketing Cloud is affordable, considering the significant improvements it brings to our campaign results."

"My company pays to use this solution."
