Effective lead management and useability with room for reporting improvements
Customer support could be more helpful. The reporting could be better, with more engaging reports and the ability to collaborate more objects, like opportunities. Incorporating AI features similar to tools like HubSpot and Salesforce account engagement would be beneficial. Additionally, Marketo should work on automating tools and updating the product since it looks similar to how it did five years ago.
Joan Morales - PeerSpot reviewer
Improved our TCO and also helped us to provide a better experience for our partners because now everything is in the same tool
The best features in the solution include the ease of use and flexibility of the tool, and its ability to accommodate different kinds of features and needs that we always come across and need to solve for. The ability to provide content and deliver content to an international audience of channel partners is significant for us. Being able to cater to international users globally is one of the great uses of the tool. StructuredWeb can implement AI capabilities within the tool, which we have deployed, is really quite unique and very helpful. Additionally, the ability to translate content to any language with AI translation integrated as part of the tool allows one partner to access a piece of content and translate it to any language for their own use. My impression of the solution's focus on partner marketing is that it has improved our marketing efforts. We have been able to replace existing tools that we had with multiple tools. Consolidating everything in one single tool—StructuredWeb—has allowed us to save costs through the process and solve for lower management costs from our perspective. It has improved our TCO and also helped us to provide a better experience for our partners because now everything is in the same tool instead of managing two different tools that do not talk to each other easily, improving the experience for partners.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most important things about Marketo is its focus on GDPR compliance. It helps you follow GDPR and CAN-SPAM rules. For example, with Marketo, I won't accidentally target audiences without their consent. Firstly, the Marketo Insights system will highlight new customer segments that I should engage with."
"The product has been stable."
"The main feature of Marketo is sending out emails, so that would be the most valuable feature."
"The valuable features are list uploads, email campaigns, generating reports,source tracking, and lead attribution."
"I have a good special setup and a huge NetFlow to the sales channel."
"One feature I like is the user interface. Compared to other tools I've used, it's much more friendly and easy to navigate. Additionally, it offers a wide range of features, which makes tasks like segmenting data much simpler."
"I like that Marketo is user-friendly and has an easy view. It's like a one-stop solution for everyone. It is very good, and you can categorize leads in different ways. You can also create your custom objects and enjoy good connectivity."
"The most valuable feature is the scoring."
"Consolidating everything in one single tool—StructuredWeb—has allowed us to save costs through the process and solve for lower management costs from our perspective, and also helped us to provide a better experience for our partners because now everything is in the same tool instead of managing two different tools that do not talk to each other easily, improving the experience for partners."
"The best part is that they have these Assistant AI and Edit AI capabilities that truly allow our partners to take our demand gen campaigns and essentially utilize our back-end data to build out accurate claims around our technologies."
 

Cons

"Its APIs need to be more flexible because there are some things that are not available in the API."
"The user interface could be improved."
"Customer support could be more helpful."
"The user experience needs improvement, particularly in terms of ease of use and navigation between projects."
"Revenue management, attribution, and ABM can all be improved."
"Segmentation in Marketo is limited to a maximum of 20 segments. Depending on the company's specific needs, these segments can be based on various attributes such as company, industry, or other values. Sometimes, there's a lag when sending data from Marketo to any CRM. It can take around five to fifteen minutes for the report to sync."
"One limitation is the user limit. For bigger organizations with large audience sizes exceeding, let's say, 500k, the solution may not be as efficient as larger enterprise platforms like Salesforce or Oracle Eloqua. However, Marketo is one of the best platforms for mid-scale and small-scale organisations."
"I have encountered issues when I had to use filters repeatedly. It would have been helpful if I could duplicate them directly, instead of dragging them. Also, having an option to save filters for future use would have saved a lot of time, especially when dealing with multiple filters."
"Areas that may have room for improvement include continuing to evolve as AI continues to evolve; the capabilities and the use cases of how AI can be used for partners are areas they are developing."
"If anything, it would be the pricing. I get nervous about how many partners will use the service, as it is based on a schedule."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is not cheap, but it's not that expensive either."
"It is expensive. We have a yearly license."
"The solution is expensive compared to others."
"The fee for Marketo includes the number of users and the database size. If we ask for a unique feature, it will cost extra."
"The licensing cost usually depends on the users."
"Marketo is too expensive for a small-sized company but more affordable for a larger-sized company."
"The initial pricing was excellent, but the pricing for renewals is not as good."
"Marketo's pricing depends on the number of contacts and the level of features you need. Compared to other platforms like Oracle Eloqua and Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Marketo is generally more affordable. Like other platforms, it offers different packages based on your needs."
