That's when you might need some additional help, in my opinion.""API capabilities (including the performance) are minimal and the email workflow capabilities are too rigid, which results in very complicated workflow management."

More HubSpot Marketing Hub Cons →

"The solution could improve by having a more user-friendly interface.""This product hasn't kept up to date on features.""The product's initial setup process could be better.""Eloqua doesn't have built-in features for WhatsApp marketing or SMS functionality.""​Reporting is very clunky and not user friendly.​""The solution should consider adding functionality related to event listening, such as webhooks.""There are some things where improvement is needed. For me, it would be great if they integrated a tool like AI configuration capabilities within Eloqua itself.""The cost of the solution has room for improvement."

  • "I believe an individual license costs $50 per month."
  • "HubSpot Marketing Hub provided me with the startup package with 90% off, but it's still hundreds of dollars a month instead of thousands of dollars a month. There is an additional cost for training and onboarding which is hundreds of dollars. It is expensive and should be reduced."
