The trade-offs
Strengths and Limitations
Mailmodo
Strengths
- AMP interactive emails with forms, surveys and carts inside the inbox
- AI generates templates, subject lines and segments
- Email sequences and prebuilt automation templates
- Integrations for HubSpot, Customer.io, Clevertap and Zapier
Limitations
- Higher entry price than most email tools, from $149 per month
- Plans start at 500 contacts
Salesforce Marketing Cloud Account Engagement
Strengths
- Scores, engagement history and attribution sit directly on Salesforce CRM records, with no connector between marketing and sales
- Multi-touch attribution models and B2B Marketing Analytics report campaign effect against pipeline rather than against opens alone
- Einstein covers both sides of the job, scoring prospects and drafting email and landing page copy
Limitations
- Priced per organisation from $1,250 a month billed annually, so the entry cost does not scale down for a small team
- Contact allowances are the real cost driver, and extra blocks run from $100 to $400 per 10,000 contacts and month depending on edition
- Business units cost $2,000 per unit and month on top of the edition price
- The value rests on Salesforce being the system of record, which makes it a poor fit for companies running another CRM
