Good support that makes me feel comfortable talking with them and trying their service.
Chose Makesbridge
Support...unmatched, personalized, and always there for you. Have yet to find another company that comes close. They are at a great price too!
Chose Makesbridge
When I first got started I used Zoho. I was frustrated because the customer service was non existent. Whenever I take on a new project that is a little out of my scope I need to have someone who can walk me thorough it. Makesbridge does that better than any other company that I …
Chose Makesbridge
Makesbridge was easier to use and has a much better help desk. We were originally impressed with sales and then the technical side. At one point we handled e-mails with an internal program, what a headache, especially the list management.
Chose Makesbridge
Makesbridge had forms capability, nurture/drip campaigns and the price was much more reasonable when compared to other Salesforce-integrated systems. The capabilities were more robust and allowed for automation.
SALESmanago
Chose SALESmanago
Better contact with the supplier, great support during implementation, more intuitive tool
Chose SALESmanago
SALESmanago is the most extensive tool among those that I have used so far. The customer service is also one of the best.
Chose SALESmanago
If we are talking about ecommerce I think SALESmanago wins for the variety of tools he has. Hubspot clearly is better than SALESmanago on CRM and reporting are area but it doesn't have the same variety of tools such as RFM, Website recommendations, social proofs and so on. The …
Chose SALESmanago
Freshmail has fewer features. It helps in managing emails, but they are not as extensive as SALESmanago. In SALESmanago, the analytics are more accurate and show more information. I can also set up automatic email cycles.
Chose SALESmanago
I use many marketing automation tools, and I choose the right tool for the right job. I like to use SALESmanago because of its great support and very good price for the product.
Chose SALESmanago
In my opinion, SALESmanago is a system that gathers plenty of important tools in one ecosystem and it does it mostly smoothly.
All the tools on SALESmanago seem to be well connected between each other.
This system was chosen by my predecessors and specific details about decision …
Chose SALESmanago
We use SALESmanago [CDP & Marketing Automation] because we want to ease efforts in inbound marketing and multichannel marketing automation. Tool is user friendly UX.
Chose SALESmanago
SALESmanago competes well on functionality with other offerings and we agreed to work with them because they were very aggressive in the beginning, but every customer we sent their way was turned off by the sales personnel.
Chose SALESmanago
Salesmanago is more affordable and has better behavior analytics when compared with others.
Chose SALESmanago
I highly recommend SALESmanago because it simplifies and automates the work for any business. Unlike many other alternatives on the market, it really is a solution capable of delivering the promised results.
Chose SALESmanago
Much more features for much less price. Much better dynamic content.

Well, Makesbridge provides fast response and good support from their support team. Everything in their platform is fine; just maybe need more user friendly ways to create templates or HTML. Once you click return error, you will need to redo your template again.

I find SalesManago to be a good tool for email marketing and automation processes. They live chat service allows fast and direct communication with customers. Website personalisation (tools like pop-ups and browser notification) work fine but I'd like to have a bit more personalisation options to be avalaible to users.

Pros
  • Service: I have been so impressed by the service team. They are extremely responsive and knowledgeable!! Probably the best phone/chat tech support I have ever utilized.
  • Segmenting by targets, lists and tags. We can divide and target our contacts by who they are, how they interact with us, what URLs they visit and their activities.
  • Forms. I use their forms for subscriptions and surveys, as well as to take in information about meal and seating preferences for our events. I love that the forms can update contact records in Salesforce.
  • The system appearance. Love the graphic presentation.
  • Did I mention how good their phone/chat tech support team is?!! Fantastic (Ehsan and Mansoor are fantastic!)

  • The solution is easy to use, once you learn it. Given that the marketing automation software is very complex, they managed to create a user-friendly interface, easy to use even without programming knowledge.
  • Educates users and customers - It is impressive how many resources SALESmanago invested in educating customers. We are talking about video tutorials, webinars every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, blog articles, infographics, free eBooks, Marketing Automation Day, events etc.
  • Multiple tools integrated into one - it's a habit that you find all the information and tools you need in one place. There are other solutions on the market, but SALESmanago is among the only ones that provides an overview
  • 30 day free trial - the advantage is that you do not have to pay first to use the solution. In the 30 day trial you have the opportunity to discover all the secrets of this tool and see if it fits to your business.

Cons
  • I want them to do ALL My marketing :-).
  • I want them to update and send messages on social media and track responses.
  • I want to be able to sort Targets by email opens and clicks.

  • Their expansion into the US has not been very successful, and if you are a West Coast customer want training, be prepared to get up at 4 a.m.
  • While their functionality is comparable to competing products there is nothing particularly unique to what they offer
  • Their instructional literature was obviously not produced by people for who English is a first language and they are not particularly English proficient.

Great product, exceptional support. I'm going to be honest and say that I was apprehensive that the Makesbridge team was actually as wonderful as the app exchange reviews claim...How often does that actually happen?! But now, I can honestly say that the glowing reviews are spot-on, and my only concern is that they do not do justice in describing the product, support and service Makesbridge provides.

Usability
I'm not an IT guru. The layout and workflows make sense, and I appreciate not having to involve a developer for every change I'd like to make.

SALESmanago is a pretty big tool (with lots of features), but if you know the principles - everything is easy to find, and easy to understand. Of course there are some settings or funcionalities which needs to be updated but still using SALESmanago is totaly different experience than 5-6 years ago (in a good way)

Ehsan has provided incredible training, making sure my team understood the application. And if at any point you have questions, or need help, they're immediately available. It's like having fractional marketing FTE's on call.

Return on Investment
  • The list management is important to us. We need to make sure that the opt-out lists are maintained and this is done automatically for us. In addition, we can create multiple lists and each e-mail is only sent once. This has saved many headaches.
