Pros
"Analytics was a good part of Adobe Campaign."

More Adobe Campaign Pros →

"I think the product's best feature is its analytics, as that's where customers derive value. The second thing is its ease of implementation.""Marketing Cloud has improved our productivity and our team enjoy using it.""The ability to automate processes is one of the most valuable features of Salesforce. This sets it part from other systems. We use the journey builder to design a fully automated journey.""Email automation is most valuable.""I like the user interface it has a nice look and feel.""This is a very powerful and scalable solution.""The notification system for customer alerts, including the integration of various communication channels such as email, SMS, and mobile push, is excellent.""The automation is great. It saves us a lot of time and it makes us move faster."

Cons
"The problems we faced with Adobe Campaigns in my company stemmed from the fact that it was very complex software."

More Adobe Campaign Cons →

"The product could use a little bit of BI in the sense of rule-based building.""Managing large volumes of data takes too long.""In a future release, adding end-user personalization would be a benefit.""The cost is always a concern for anyone using a SaaS product.""When you use your iPhone or Android phone, Salesforce is not as user-friendly as it could be. That UX needs to be improved.""Salesforce Marketing Cloud could improve by having more graphical options because a lot of tables are now only numbers and percentages and data. I prefer graphs, lines, and pie charts. I know there are ways to receive this from Salesforce Marketing Cloud. It doesn't play a huge role in my daily work to invest the time to figure it out. I feel that it would be time wasted. They could make the graphical options easier to find and use in the future.""Marketing Cloud's forecasting could be improved.""The general setup and understanding of how to use it can be improved. There should be easier self-service for setting up dashboards. Currently, we have someone setting them up for us. I wish it was easier."
