"Buggy and old-looking"

2/5

What do you like best about Oracle Eloqua?

Eloqua is robust and does more or less what it promises. It has all the basic email marketing automation tools, as well as lead qualification etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Eloqua?

The software is just extremely buggy, insanely unintuitive and not userfriendly. It does not lead the user easily through the email campaign process but expects the user to know what they want - and you must do it in one, specific (illogical-)Eloqua-way. I dont personally like the user interface, which is old-fashioned and engineering style. Looks like it was coded in the beginning of 2000s and never updated afterwards. The user experience follows the same pattern, as there are many illogical steps one has to do, which are simply not acceptable for a software in 2020. For example, Eloqua does not remember in which folder you were before you opened the email draft or campaign draft, and when you go back you have to start the path to the right folder from the scratch. It does not have any autosave, so you have to remember to save everything you were doing every few minutes. Because if you don't, some bug (which are common) probably strikes on the way and wipes out everything you were doing. I can't recommend this software, there are so many more user friendly, modern and cheaper options available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Oracle Eloqua:

Probably suitable if you like old and engineer-styled software and are ready to big penny for it. If you need something flexible, agile and modern, do not bother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Oracle Eloqua solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Eloqua mainly for email marketing automation, which it does - but in a slow, unintuitive and demanding manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Eloqua: Powerful, Scalable, and Exceptionally Flexible for B2B Campaigns"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Oracle Eloqua?

Eloqua is a powerful and reliable marketing automation platform that scales extremely well. The campaign canvas, segmentation tools, and data management capabilities make it easy to build sophisticated journeys without manual workarounds. I also appreciate how well it supports governance — shared assets, user permissions, and templated processes help maintain consistency across multiple teams. After 10 years of using Eloqua, I still find it one of the most flexible and robust platforms for executing complex B2B campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Oracle Eloqua?

Some areas of the platform feel dated compared with newer tools. The email and landing page editors could offer more design flexibility, and reporting isn’t always as intuitive or real-time as you’d expect. Integrations are powerful but often require specialist knowledge to set up or maintain. Pricing for advanced features and add-ons can also add up quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Oracle Eloqua solving and how is that benefiting you?

Eloqua centralises our marketing automation, helping us manage campaigns, data, and customer journeys in one place. It solves key challenges around lead nurturing, data governance, segmentation, and campaign efficiency. Automated workflows reduce manual tasks and improve speed to market, while integrations ensure alignment with CRM and analytics. Overall, Eloqua helps us deliver more personalised, consistent, and scalable marketing experiences that support pipeline growth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Incredible platform for B2B Marketing"

5/5

What do you like best about Oracle Eloqua?

What I love about Oracle Eloqua is how it takes the guesswork out of marketing, it feels like having a personal assistant that knows exactly who to reach and when, also the way it personalizes messages makes campaigns feel more genuine and less like mass marketing.
