What we need in today's world is smart solutions within few dollars so that those who really need it can leverage the most; Solution leveraging absolute free infrastructure on storage side, on SMTP, mobile messaging and relevant context generation, most likely as paid but available on usage basis; And you should have it in 10-20$ to start with first 1000 customers :-)

The strongest marketing automation platform in the market

Valuable Features:

I love the breadth of marketing activities you can do and manage with Eloqua - lead and account scoring, lead management and nurturing, email marketing, hypersites/microsites, social components, reporting (ROI on marketing spend), event management and the list goes on. We needed a solution that could scale with our business - and it doesn't get better than Eloqua.

Room for Improvement:

Who doesn't want to pay less!

Other Advice:

A small team can operate at a large scale with Eloqua. We deployed it worldwide with success. We love the nurture system we were able to create with Eloqua.

Eloqua is primarily targeted towards outbound marketing and a bit difficult to handle when it
comes to deployment. It’s a well-known fact that outbound generates more traffic, but if someone is
looking for a product that can also handle in out marketing, there are many products out there in the
market that excel in this sub-domain.

Eloqua gets modern marketing. Get with the times.

Valuable Features:

Eloqua gets modern marketing, plain and simple. The technology component of your marketing mix is essential to scaling your business. You can make a dramatic difference out-of-the-box, or can morph it to fit your business's specific success metrics.

Room for Improvement:

To get the most out of your investment you'll want to have a dedicated admin or team if you are able. This will allow users to take advantage of the great education programs Eloqua offers and dive into some of the powerful features below the surface.

Other Advice:

Eloqua is the engine of our marketing operations. It integrates with our CRM platform and allows us to close the loop between sales and marketing for all of our enterprise demand generation initiatives.

Eloqua Changes the Way You Think About Marketing

Valuable Features:

Ease of use for all users (marketing and sales), the Eloqua online community makes it so easy to connect with other users, ability to automate our event processes, and it's FULL integration with Salesforce.com (our sales organization loves the behavior based information they have visibility to)

Room for Improvement:

Pricing - if you can swing it, Eloqua is worth it!;

Other Advice:

Eloqua has always adapted to the needs of their customers which is visible on the new Eloqua 10 platform. We are in the process of switching to E10 and couldn't be more excited. Prior to Eloqua our processes were cumbersome and clunky. This tool made our marketers feel the power behind our campaigns and gave them the tools and confidence to execute campaigns themselves.

Easy integration and intuitive user interface, but not suited for small companies.

Valuable Features:

Eloqua10 is a great tool for marketing automation for both B2B and B2C companies. It easily integrates with SFDC or any other CRM system. The user interface is intuitive and continues to get better with each release. The platform incorporates a broad range of processes including lead scoring, segmentation, lead capture, email automation, and reporting. Product support is available and one of the best features of Eloqua. They also offer multiple classes to help new and experienced users better use their product, and have a users forum (Topliners) for customers to search for answers to questions and interact with Eloqua power users.

Room for Improvement:

Not suited for small companies. Pricing makes it better suited for mid-size firms and enterprises. However, if you can afford it, get it. Worth every penny.
