What do you dislike about Adobe Marketo Engage?

Occasionally, large smart lists or segments with a lot of data can take some time to load. While this isn't a significant problem, it can be a bit inconvenient when working under tight deadlines, as even a brief delay can impact your workflow. Aside from this, the tool remains very stable and delivers strong performance overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful Automation and Seamless CRM Integration for Effortless Marketing"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Adobe Marketo Engage?

What​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ I like the most about Marketo Engage is that it offers a lot of power in automation of marketing tasks but at the same time, it does not complicate the process too much. Essentially, I am able to create campaigns, define triggers, and handle customer journeys in a pictorial manner which is very logical. There are also a lot of segmentation options available which means that it is very easy to target the right audience without generating heaps of lists that are difficult to manage. additionally, I find that the analytics are sufficient to reveal the good and the bad of the executed actions. So as not to endanger the entire campaign, the platform allows for emailing different versions of a message thereby giving me the freedom to test new ideas.

Additionally, if the setting of a workflow is the only thing that you need to be concerned with and once it is done correctly, then it will continue to function in the background without requiring much manual work. In addition, it is well integrated with our CRM, which ensures that everything is kept in proper synchronization. In brief, it facilitates the execution of marketing activities in a well-organized and dependable ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Marketo Engage?

Marketo​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ is a platform that sometimes makes me quite irritated when I feel that certain parts of the interface are somewhat old-fashioned and not very intuitive. There are moments when it is necessary to perform an excessive number of clicks in order to locate basic settings or modify workflows that are already existing. The difficulty level to master it is quite high for sure, particularly for newcomers who have never worked with marketing automation tools. Although there is some documentation, not all things are clearly explained, so I occasionally need to consult online forums.

Also, the email builder seems to be less advanced compared with other instruments, and there are times when the formatting changes in a way that you do not expect. Reporting has a lot of capabilities, but it can be quite difficult and time-consuming to set up custom dashboards or metrics. Moreover, if something is not working, for example, a trigger that is not firing correctly, it is not always straightforward understanding the reason behind it.

These problems do not make me stop using the platform, but they certainly do slow down the process ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Campaign Management with Powerful, User-Friendly Features"
4/5
What do you like best about Adobe Marketo Engage?

What I appreciate most about this tool is how effortlessly it allows me to run and monitor marketing campaigns, thanks to its user-friendly interface and the convenient drag-and-drop email builder. Setting up automated workflows is simple, enabling me to quickly tailor outreach and follow-ups based on customer behavior. I rely on it frequently because it saves me time and helps me stay organized, even when managing several campaigns simultaneously.

The tool offers an impressive array of features, covering everything from lead management to reporting, and integration with other software is generally seamless. Customer support has been reliable whenever I’ve needed assistance or had questions, and the onboarding process was smooth, making it easy to get up and running. Having all the necessary tools for managing leads, emails, and analytics in one place has made my work more efficient and allowed me to achieve better outcomes for our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Adobe Marketo Engage?

One aspect I find challenging with this tool is that some of the reporting features and analytics require a bit of an adjustment period, particularly when I’m trying to explore more advanced metrics. Initially, it can feel somewhat overwhelming, and I often have to spend extra time figuring out how to extract the specific data I need. Additionally, making adjustments to templates or setting up complex workflows tends to demand more technical expertise than I anticipated. At times, I’ve experienced delays when syncing data or integrating with certain third-party platforms, which can be frustrating if I’m working under tight deadlines. While support is generally helpful, there have been occasions when troubleshooting took longer than I would have liked. Overall, the tool meets my needs, but there are times when I wish it were easier to navigate or offered a bit more flexibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
