Reviews (Snippets from G2)

Pros

  • It's a relatively simple setup process.
  • I like that this tool integrates with other Salesforce features that my client's organization uses.
  • Salesforce Email Studio is the best cloud-based email tool to send a large group of bulk mails.
  • I love the ease of use, customizable features, and database integrations that allow us to easily and quickly reach our customers.
  • It is an intuitive and quite analytical software that collects the information provided by each user and determines their tastes and preferences based on this.
  • Composing email templates and creating drip campaigns is easy with Pardot once you get used to the workflow.

Cons

  • The UI can be confusing.
  • You can't create landing pages on different domains/subdomains.
  • Sometimes, the time out setting triggers while you are actively on the page.
  • There are definite gaps in functionality. SLA for sending automated emails is up to 60 minutes which is absolutely awful.
  • It was a bit tough to understand the UI at first.
  • Reporting is less flexible than I'd like, especially where customization is required.
