Pardot Consultant at Target
Offers an easy initial setup phase and good ROI
With Pardot, users can do the segmentation based on their requirements. You can segment your prospects based on their interests, locations, companies, or the sales cycle. You can also use the engagement studio to create a journey for the people you have segmented with the help of automation feature of the tool. The aforementioned area consists of the most useful features I found in the tool apart from its out-of-the-box features. The integration between Pardot and Salesforce is beneficial if you know how to share the leads that a company finds useful so that they don't have to invest in manual work or do anything blindly to reach out to leads. Users can segment the leads using the features that the tool provides. I recommend the product to those who plan to use it. If a business is into B2B marketing and can afford to purchase Pardot, then they should buy it. If the product of a company is good, then Pardot can help multiply such an organization's ROI. Based on the product and how the sales and marketing team works, the tool can be useful. In short, the tool can be as good as the person who is using it. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Co-branded content has reached partners faster and personalized campaigns have improved engagement
It's fairly easy to implement StructuredWeb within my existing marketing processes, probably a seven or eight on a scale of 1 to 10. Navigating through what they call the small journeys for setting up the marketing campaigns is more complicated; I'd rate that probably a five, as we're just starting some of that process now, and one of the reasons we haven't started until now is that it's quite complicated. The complexity in navigating the setup hasn't affected the speed of launching marketing campaigns significantly; there are some internal processes that contribute. The biggest issue that affected our speed of launching was the content upload process, where certain formats are easy for StructuredWeb to upload, while others take more time and are more manual. StructuredWeb is very focused on partner marketing and certainly competes as a best-of-breed solution. There are other platforms that have elements of what StructuredWeb offers, but from what I've seen, it's very high for a partner marketing-specific platform. The effectiveness of the personalized content delivery in enhancing partner engagement is a very strong component; however, the only criticism we've received from partners is that sometimes our rules about what can be edited on the content are too restrictive for them. They would appreciate seeing us exercise more flexibility and less control. But that's an internal policy issue, not a problem with StructuredWeb. Managing personalized content for different partners within StructuredWeb really comes down to partner size and resources. Larger partners typically use the platform to occasionally co-brand the content and then download it without extensive editing. In contrast, smaller partners, who may not have their own marketing platforms, engage in more extensive editing on the StructuredWeb platform and sometimes deploy from there and sometimes from their own platform. We haven't really utilized the AI assistant for creating and distributing marketing content yet. There are two AI models: one internal and one external, where we haven't launched the external one available to our partners via the platform. The internal one has been experimented with, but due to turnover in staff, those initially trained are no longer with us, so we feel we're back to square one. Additionally, the AI component is somewhat tedious due to our AI council regulations within Imnissa, which has restricted us from using all capabilities from StructuredWeb. I would rate StructuredWeb an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The implementation process is easy, it's easy to learn, the dashboards are very convenient when you go from one option to another option, the dashboard is very neat, and the UI is very easy to understand."
"It has made email marketing quicker and easier."
"Pardot directly integrates with CRM, specifically Salesforce, which has an excellent R&D team."
"The product is stable."
"It's easy to create email templates and landing pages."
"Campaign tracking is a valuable feature."
"Pardot's most valuable feature is its B2B marketing capabilities."
"For me, the best thing is the Custom Redirect. That's one key thing I like because using that particular Custom Redirect, I can track a link wherever I'm sharing it. I can track how and when people are accessing it."
"The most glaring benefit I've observed from using StructuredWeb for partner marketing is the ability to get out co-branded materials in a much faster fashion, which keeps our partners engaged."
"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."
"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."
 

Cons

"The user interface could be made more intuitive and user-friendly."
"The solution is quite expensive, at least, for smaller teams."
"When it comes to integration with third-party tools, Pardot's APIs are not that robust."
"The price of this solution is expensive. However, you are going to receive good value for money."
"Needs to improve list building."
"The reporting features of the Pardot system could be improved to provide better and more data."
"Lacks sufficient free custom fields."
"Pardot must be synced with Salesforce."
"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

"In terms of pricing, Pardot is cheaper than Marketing Cloud."
"The price of this solution is expensive. However, you are going to receive good value for money. They could improve by reducing the price."

"We pay about $4000 a month."
