Formerly Oracle Content Marketing of the Oracle Marketing Cloud, Compendium was a content marketing solution to create and distribute compelling content across multiple channels to a targeted audience. Users could plan, produce, and deliver content across multiple personas and channels throughout the customer life cycle.
Oracle acquired the product in 2013. A legacy product, Compendium is now end of sale.
The SnapApp Interactive Content Marketing platform that was acquired by Uberflip December 2019 was discontinued by Uberflip at the end of July 2022. It is no longer available.
While OCM was a lot more money, they were able to prove to us that they are a much better solution to use and worth the extra cost. The reporting, capabilities along with the analytics that was easy to download was a big discussion factor for us.
We did not review any other apps like this in the lead generation space. They cold called us and this seemed like a good test to get leads in our younger demographic where we have had issues bringing in new leads. I am not sure what other options there are in this space besides …
Although not a direct comparison (Canva is an online graphic design application), it has many of the editing features that I think would greatly benefit SnapApp's usability. However, as far as I'm aware, SnapApp is one of the only online platforms designed to create interactive …
Although SurveyMonkey is free, it lacks the extended design options available in SnapApp. Using SnapApp showed that we were able to use a higher-end service for our surveys and fun engagement tools. I just think it offers a better presentation than SurveyMonkey. I believe …
Oracle is great for a very basic blog. The look of ours was designed and built on the back end/code side, so I'm not sure if there are a lot of clean, modern templates like you see in a lot of blogs today to choose from or not. It has been great having a number of authors who can write content directly in the platform and then submit it to our content managers for scheduling and publishing. I think the biggest issue people may have with it is the look of the interface. It needs an update.
Delivering appropriate content to your audience is easy and easy to increase reach. In its field, Snapapp excels. According to me, the ABM tracking is one of the most useful features. I can track my organization's strengths and weaknesses and work on them simultaneously. Through Audience intelligence I can analyse what engages my audience and whats not.
Workflows are a functionality in OCM making sure that the approval is given by the right person in the right job before it's on it's way to the next step and in the end, publishing!
Template functionality in OCM allows for easy copying and adjusting, allowing you to re-use best practices quickly!
SnapApp's platform is relatively user-friendly with customization options that are tailored to each 'type' of content. It's difficult to break or alter something that will negatively affect your asset.
There are infinite possibilities for branding including options to upload your own buttons, logos, graphics and choose your own colors to align with unique brand standards.
It's fairly easy for new users (with a minimum level of technical knowledge) to pick up the skills needed to create a basic SnapApp.
Some of our authors have trouble figuring out how the workflow works. It takes a little bit of searching to find where to set a page for approval. They also have trouble locating where to schedule blogs to be published.
It's not the most user-friendly design. When you log in, it feels a bit dated and take a bit of time to get acclimated to where everything is located.
The organization of the backend code files seems very disorganized.
Finding any sort of tutorials, demos, site help is challenging.
Maybe the worst part is trying to contact customer support. There is a lengthy registration process for their separate support forum that requires approval. I've had a couple support instances there have been left unresolved and and closed without any offers why.
Easy to use, and supporting several permutations, the CM suite is an excellent solution for a mid to large size business. It's meant to be used by a team, and the functionality can work across websites and landing pages. There's also the high benefit of translation management, providing support for localized products.
We recently decided not to renew our use of SnapApp. Due to the lack of integration with our version of Eloqua (without an added cost), we determined this was not where we wanted to spend our marketing dollars. We are also streamlining our data collection processes, expanding our employee numbers, and working towards other goals as a marketing department as a company. SnapApp just didn't help us meet those goals
To be perfectly honest, every one of my concerns and problems has been handled by the support team in a very timely manner. If they could not fix my issue they assured me it be addressed in future updates.
Don't forget about customer service once you have a closed the sale with a customer. Oracle seemed to not care about our needs/timeline after we gave them our Purchase Order
