Adobe Campaign
Chose Adobe Campaign
more legacy, less intuitive but more customizable
Chose Adobe Campaign
We adore the fact that we can run numerous automated campaigns concurrently and that we can make changes to them without stopping and starting a new campaign. Adobe Campaign makes it possible for the process to go on.
Chose Adobe Campaign
Haven't used Salesforce Marketing Cloud much.
Chose Adobe Campaign
Sender also offers multi-channel marketing capabilities, allowing users to engage with their audience through different channels. However, the range and depth of multi-channel capabilities in Adobe Campaign are generally more extensive. So after using both the platforms I …
Chose Adobe Campaign
One of the major resons was already having AEM and creating a highly cohesive tech stack. Adobe Campaign fit the criteria.
Chose Adobe Campaign
In the end we didn’t go with Adobe Campaign.
Although it offers great a great tool set that is very flexible. You do need someone on staff that know Adobe products to get the full utilisation out of it. Ultimately what it came down to for us was that because we had a small team, …
Chose Adobe Campaign
Adobe Campaign Standard has a lot of segmentation options out of the box and a lot better analytics. Pardot is a lot more listbased, where with Adobe Campaign, you can do complete customized segmentation, such as all permissions in base A who are currently customers of this …

Easy drag and drop user friendly maenu and optimise software a good alternative to google as campaign.

Adobe Campaign is more advanced when it is used with other tools from Adobe family.

Adobe Campaign has all the features and tools that develop the whole marketing and sales channels. It has been able to integrate with our systems in all departments in development of our planning structure. While Salesforce CMS works effectively in the management of our …
Chose Adobe Campaign
Compared to other websites, Adobe Campaign stacks up with its various uses. You can create with its other platforms and follow through. Other platforms, you have to use adobe to create then go somewhere else to schedule and post. Adobe Campaign allows you to use all within one …
Chose Adobe Campaign
Adobe Campaign is good in terms of features, offerings, it's customization options, and extensive possibilities to make a powerful email campaign or offer landing page. It's very reliable and stable too. But in terms of its dashboard UI, it is not as simple or quick to learn as …
Chose Adobe Campaign
All these applications are very similar, adobe has a differential for the company's expertise, for the way cloud services and their specialists are treated. I believe that it also has a differential in the metrics and management of flows where it is possible to have a broader …
Chose Adobe Campaign
The platform is much more complex and much more suited for complicated applications. While Mailchimp is an easier all rounded solution for starters it doesn’t allow the system integrator to do customization of the workflows and more complicated tasks. I would say that in my …
Chose Adobe Campaign
Adobe Campaign is different from these products in that is much more all-encompassing and is able to manage more aspects of a campaign than these more singular-tracked platforms.
Chose Adobe Campaign
As we tried to centralise the marketing automation platform within the enterprise, Adobe Campaign can plug into several instances of Salesforce.com for lead management queues. All other marketing automation platforms can only plug into one instance of Salesforce.com.

For B2C campaign, [I] still prefer to go with Marketo. However, for all other transactional/Nontransactional, promotional, Welcome email campaigns, while it is required to handle [the] global market with [a] number of brands, [I would] [prefer to] go with Adobe Campaign …
Chose Adobe Campaign
  • Easy to install
  • Free trails
  • Lesser cost as compared to others
Chose Adobe Campaign
Pardot: Adobe is a better value for the money. Active Campaign: Adobe Campaign has more automation features but comes inexpensive.
Chose Adobe Campaign
Adobe Campaign has a lot more features as compared to Mailchimp. While Mailchimp allows you to send a lot of communication to a lot of recipients, Adobe Campaign lets you set variables in the workflow, and send email at different times with a lot more customization. Adobe …
Chose Adobe Campaign
Adobe is far ahead of what I used previously. Adobe has all the details of the customer which is required to increase the sales of the company and the customer also gets relevant information.
Mailchimp is just an email tool where we can send mails to multiple users.
eTrigue
Chose eTrigue
mid range pricing, offered quite a bit like other vendors, but missing some functionality.
Chose eTrigue
None except for salesforce.
Chose eTrigue
As an agency we have experience with several other marketing automation platforms. We support clients that are not using eTrigue DemandCenter-- we'll work with them to create various campaign assets. This said, if our clients want us to also run their marketing automation …
Chose eTrigue
Constant Contact offered now tracking, lead alerts. Marketo wasn't as flexible-- for example not easy to schedule campaigns in advance, to launch in the future. Also liked the interface and the DemandCenter lead alert format more than Marketo.
Chose eTrigue
we talk to users of Marketo and Eloqua and they tell us that both are complex to use and difficult and time consuming to make changes - they also require full time administrators - eTrigue is refreshingly easy to use - does not require a full time administrator - has most of …
Chose eTrigue
eTrigue is more intuitive and easier to use. With Marketo you need extensive training and/or consulting or a dedicated, trained headcount. Eloqua is expensive and even more complex.
Chose eTrigue
Used home grown solutions which were less sophisticated. Evaluated other heavily marketed offerings which were more complex and expensive to implement and use. eTrigue was very easy to implement, easy to adopt and easy on the budget.
Chose eTrigue
We have used batch campaign systems, and relied on partners to run our campaigns previously. With eTrigue we can now run our own campaigns very easily, with little training required, and can change campaigns mid flow based on performance reporting. We have seen a 100% return on …
Chose eTrigue
Ease of use is unparalleled. Marketo is very challenging, too much training required. The integration with WebX or Go To Webinar is 30 pages long. We integrated WebEx with eTrigue in 5 minutes.

Act-On is limited because campaigns must be based on a list. Very inflexible.
Chose eTrigue

Many of the CRM systems meet some of these "must have" criteria. However, among the products in the market today, my experience is that eTrigue Demand Center and, just as importantly, the employees behind the eTrigue product, consistently outperform the competition on every …
Chose eTrigue
eTrigue DemandCenter was easier to use, more visual and intuitive, tons of features and the support team was the best to work with.
Chose eTrigue
eTrigue is far better than other marketing systems we have used because of the drag-n-drop, advanced search, ability to launch campaigns when all assets are not ready, and THE BEST SUPPORT I HAVE EVER USED. We tried Marketo and Pardot, then tested Act-on. With the other …
Chose eTrigue
It is easy to use, and is organized the way that marketers think. That is incredible. Top 2 for sure!
Chose eTrigue
Great value against all the top providers. Performs like the big dogs.
Chose eTrigue
When I first saw DemandCenter I knew it was different. With DemandCenter you "storyboard" your campaign. That one unique feature sets DemandCenter apart from the rest of the market. Consider the "storyboard" as the controlling document to all of your campaigns. From there, you …
Chose eTrigue
Ultimately, we selected eTrigue because of their stellar customer service. We are a small company and it SEEMED that it would be a good fit.
Chose eTrigue
In 2010, we evaluated Marketo and Pardot alongside eTrigue. And eTrigue was considered the 'Cadillac' of MA tools. More recently, we've checked out Eloqua and Hubspot. All of these are more-or-less clones, having all the same core features. Except for HubSpot, which should be …
Chose eTrigue
No comparison. Eloqua is clunky and time consuming. They both have the same features but eTrigue is cleaner, simpler, faster and less expensive. By comparison, Eloqua implementation and training took 2 weeks and an onsite paid consultant. eTrigue implementation and training …

Multi-Channel Campaign Management: I have found Adobe Campaign to be excellent for managing campaigns across multiple channels, including email, mobile, social media, and web. Its centralized platform allows me to plan, execute, and track campaigns effectively, making it ideal for organizations with diverse marketing channels. For example, when I was running a campaign to promote a new product launch across email, SMS, and social media channels, Adobe Campaign provided me with the tools to orchestrate and track the campaign seamlessly. I could ensure consistent messaging and a cohesive customer experience across different channels.

I would not recommend DemandCenter for anyone who doesn't know what they're doing or what they want. That sounds like a no-brainer, but it seems like a huge number of organizations want something to fill that "Marketing Automation" gap, not having the marketing infrastructure in place to support it. That is, a technically savvy person to design complex campaign logic and manage data, good web people for designing landing pages and emails, and content writers & managers & marketing specialists for everything else. Investing in a marketing automation tool does not mean you can exclude these resources - it simply means you can DO MORE with those resources. If you don't know what you want, and want to be babysat through the whole process but don't mind the limitations, you can always go with the MA tool that rhymes with "BubSpot".

Pros
  • What we like most about this application is that it provides us with the creation of ads to generate presence and impact on different channels at minimum cost.
  • It has a section where [it] [helps] us determine our preferences in terms of marketing by private messaging and offer a report of actions.
  • It also provides analysis with percentages to determine how many customers actually received our e-mail advertising.
Read full review
  • Putting prospects in the system from spreadsheets is easy. Contacts can also be automatically brought into eTrigue from your CRM. (If you have Salesforce.)
  • Campaign reports show the actual numbers of prospects at each step of the campaign. The detail behind the number is available just by clicking on it.
Read full review
Cons
  • It requires administrator rights in order to deploy into an environment.
  • We do not want changes directly in a production environment so deployments are a bottleneck since only a few have access.
  • Performing user audits are difficult or even impossible in certain cases to determine who started/executed/made changes to a workflow.
  • There's no easy way to roll back changes.

  • I wish they could be able to customize URLs for landing pages for better SEO and branding.
  • Better SEO functionality and ability to customize those options on landing pages would be nice.
  • More useful and better detailed analytics would be nice.

Despite the shortcomings of user interface and basic troubleshooting difficulty, Neolane is much more robust and delivers better capabilities to our sales and marketing staffs than any other product we have used here or any product our staff members have used at other locations.

We rely on this tool. Going forward as we implement new back end architecture we may be forced to change to an integrated platform with our master data management infrastructure, but we will do so kicking and screaming. While marketing gets to make the choice, we will choose eTrigue.

Usability
Thanks to this tool we are taking more internal control of the creation and deployment of campaigns with less dependency on an ESP. We can pre-program marketing publications, being able to concentrate on the target audience. It helps me manage email campaigns with real-time tracking.

Support Rating
Although there is a lot of material available on the internet to answer questions, I still feel a lack of commitment and delay in the responses of the support, but as a whole, it leaves nothing to be desired. I believe that, in the great majority, companies sin in the desired support, but we cannot generalize. But this one, in particular, has a wide range of specialists and well-qualified management, but I believe that it is not so bad.

You will need to think about which users you want to have each role, and the features allowed in each role. You should watch the training videos before you get live training. It saved us several hours as they had already answered 90% of our questions.

Sender also offers multi-channel marketing capabilities, allowing users to engage with their audience through different channels. However, the range and depth of multi-channel capabilities in Adobe Campaign are generally more extensive. So after using both the platforms I selected Adobe Campaign for my email marketing purpose.

As an agency we have experience with several other marketing automation platforms. We support clients that are not using eTrigue DemandCenter-- we'll work with them to create various campaign assets. This said, if our clients want us to also run their marketing automation campaigns-- implement the campaigns after the assets are created, we only work in eTrigue as this our platform of choice. Our ability to support the robust and fast-paced needs of our clients requires us to use a platform that they can easily implement and that we can easily work in, make ongoing changes in. eTrigue DemandCenter is the platform that delivers.
