"Useful tool for marketers"

4/5

What do you like best about HCL Unica?

HCL Unica was really a useful tool in my freelancing journey. My favourite feature is target segmentation, which is actually a gem for content writers and marketers. It helped me a lot in optimizing content strategy. I didn't have to rely on third-party apps for managing content drafts. The asset library lend me a hand over there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HCL Unica?

I am not sure whether this is a demerit. It was quite difficult to access the platform at the beginning and I admit that I was not that tech-savvy. I took time for me to learn how to use all their features effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is HCL Unica solving and how is that benefiting you?

The more we understand the target audience, better the results will be. HCL Unica helped me with that through target segmentation and analytics feature.

Yet another headache in my job is the need for effective management of content drafts. The asset library platform was really helpful in managing and sharing the content easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about HCL Unica?

One thing I experienced is the learning curve, now if you are from a technical background and understand the nitty-gritty of the tools, then it may get easier for you to understand and get hands-on with HCL Unica. It has some of the features, which will take more time for you to understand. Apart from that server errors are hard to manage, and you a take lot from your resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Robust software with solid community support and customer care!"

4/5

What do you like best about HCL Unica?

What problems is HCL Unica solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest headache in marketing starts after the campaign, during analysis of the campaign's effectiveness. HCL Unica provided data in a much simplified visualised form of flowcharts so that it was easy to consume. As a marketing trainee, I was actually not familiar with automation tools. However, throughout my usage of HCL Unica, I didn't face many issues as there was a user-friendly interface. Above all, thanks to the customer care team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
