Spotsaas Editor’s POV

Salesforce Marketing Cloud Account Engagement (formerly Pardot) is a marketing automation platform built for B2B teams already using Salesforce. Its integration with Salesforce connects sales and marketing data directly—lead tracking, nurturing, and conversion workflows pull from the same system. The platform handles email automation, lead scoring, segmentation, ...Read more

Feature-rich and intuitive

What do you like best? Automation rules; Engagement campaigns and the ability to streamline marketing processes. What do you dislike? Analytics lacking out of the box -- Wave Analytics solution does not actually pull directly from Pardot. Not out of the box existing Account detection to flag Leads vs. new Contacts.

Helpful but not used to max potential

What do you like best? Pardot has helped us add a layer of intelligence to our agency operations. What do you dislike? Pardot sometimes feels a little lacking compared to other marketing automation systems, but it could be that I've not explored it enough. Recommendations to others considering the product The UX isn't as friendly as some other marketing automation tools. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We use Pardot for ...

New User - Easy to Use

What do you like best? I like that Pardot is easy to use. When I started working at my company, I'd never used it before and quickly picked up on how it worked. We're even doing more training so we can learn to better utilize it. What do you dislike? I wish the social media tools/functions were better. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We're maximizing how we reach our clients and bettering how we communicate our message to ...

Good integration with Salesforce, easy to use. Wish there were more integrations with third parties

What do you like best? Pardot is straightforward and easy to comprehend and use. Pardot plays nicely with SFDC. What do you dislike? A lot of marketing SaaS offer direct integration into competing products, like Marketo. Pardot is sometimes slow to implement new features. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? This product helps us

Easy to set up and use, super simple connection with Salesforce

What do you like best? The integration with Salesforce is EXTREMELY easy - unlike any other system I've ever had to integrate in the past. It truly takes less than an hour. What do you dislike? It doesn't have as robust of features/functionality as tools like Marketing Cloud or Eloqua for rules based decisions. It also has a somewhat small limit on the number of automations for our package, 100, when you really want to do robust lead scoring/grading or automations it eats those up ...

Very efficient use of time for email marketing efforts

What do you like best? Engagement Studio and the email templates What do you dislike? Unable to export part of pipeline report What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? Being able to see from start to finish when and how our customers or visitors are coming to us. Definitely able to see how they are using the content we send and where their interests lie therefore being able to understand their needs more clearly.

How did we work before Pardot?!

What do you like best? It's easy to use and has wonderful functions built in to manage full marketing campaigns. Before Pardot, we weren't able to track our campaigns effectively and now we can get detailed analytics on everything we're doing. What do you dislike? Sometimes it's hard to get quick answers from the help desk and outside agencies aren't always familiar with it so it's not always easy to integrate. What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits ...

Pardot a first time user review

What do you like best? I like the fact that Pardot is very intuitive. They have lots of training as well as insightful blog posts and knowledge base to help with day to day questions. What do you dislike? The only thing I do not like is that you have to upgrade for some of the better features. I feel like they should offer more for the price you pay for it. Recommendations to others considering the product I would totally recommend this product to other organizations. Pardot makes ...
