What do you like best about Iterable?

I love Iterable because since I started using it the product has improved a lot and has become more innovative. I am pleased when my team needs product changes, as they are ready to listen to my needs and do their best to improve it. It has a clear, adaptable and comprehensive interface to build the automation of the campaign workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

I can affirm that the most painful part of Iterable is the design of templates versus messages since sometimes it is a nuisance to edit a template and make it not be reflected in a message the way you thought. On the other hand, it can have different projects, but there is no order on a project. There is no control panel for several projects to check trends in those projects.

We use Iterable as an instrument for user retention because it allows design and marketing to help retain users and increase revenue without having to rely on engineering to post messages or workflows. We also use it to send emails to the marketing team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Iterable?

I enjoy the ease of reviewing each campaign from the Messaging page and then having the ability to double-click to understand more data about a specific campaign. I also appreciate the heatmap as we are able to see which types of content in the email resonated most with our users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

The confusing jargon that we need to use to create segmentations can be improved. For example, "is on or after" is a very confusing term. I think this needs to be rethought to make it easier for users. I need to utilize a diagram that one of your technical CSM uses for me to make sure I am targeting the appropriate group. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Iterable solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are looking to target dozens of different creator segments with different types of messaging. Iterable is able to help us reach the audiences we need with the ease of a pretty straightforward platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Iterable?

As a non-technical marketer, I can use and create create campaigns and emails easily. It gives me autonomy over my work and how fast I can accomplish it. Their support team is very helpful as well when I've run into roadblocks or don't understand how to use a specific feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

Overall I think their documentation is lacking into how to actually use certain features. Their support articles say what they are, but you need to email back and forth with support to understand how to use it.

One issue that I've had a few times is duplicating blast campaigns, and the previous A/B test duplicates as well. Two times it has happened when I didn't realize it and the email went out with the wrong A/B test. They should make this more explicit - I feel it is a UX problem, not a user problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Iterable solving and how is that benefiting you?

The primary benefit of Iterable for our company is creating transactional or event/trigger-based emails. It requires a developer to create the event but once that is largely done, a non-technical marketer can handle the majority of the tasks. It is great to not require the use of an email develop or agency to manage the emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about Iterable?

Iterable is an easy to use, intuitive ESP. We are able to use Iterable automate our entire marketing program with dozens of campaigns and journeys, each with various dynamic fields and templates.

I'm impressed with amount of data Iterable is able to hold and reference.

Lastly, the customer support through the platform and through our account representative is always immediate and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

The journey capabilities could be further built out to allow things like a send limit per day (not just per minute). We sometimes have to come up with creative workarounds for features that do not exist, such as a daily send limit.

Additionally, we would like to see better alerting built into Iterable. Right now, alerting is very limited - you can't apply specific alerts to a specific campaign. We would like to see this limitation changed to avoid the need for 3rd party services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Iterable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Iterable allows us to automate most of our email marketing campaigns. This prevents us from having to build net new emails daily in order to keep the program running. Secondly, Iterable's features allow for a lot of testing, which helps us learn about what works and does not work.

Iterable allows us to populate data in dynamic templates and fields live. This is a small feature that saves us a huge amount of time. We are able to test different versions of the email live in the platform as opposed to having to build out numerous templates and or having to send proofs to our inboxes to view different versions of dyanmic templates.

What do you like best about Iterable?

Firstly their customer team are great. Really pleased with the level of care we get since we're not a massive customer and they're very responsive (shout out Claire). Same goes for thier support, often have to get them to do some odd requests for our quirks but they're normally very good and really fast.

As a service it does what we need it to and often without fail. Fairly easy to use, you don't have to be an developer to get something out of it. We use it for all of our event based notifications including push and email, across multuple languages as well, and that's okay to set up.

The most useful part is being able to deep dive in to the event history of any user and see exactly what they were sent. Has helped us diagnose countless bugs over time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

I just wish we had more time to get to grips with it. If you know how to use it you'll get a really good product out of it, without that time we've just always scraped the surface.

The language used to desrcibe the different features isn't always the clearest and it's not always obvious what is the right way to set something up until you've done it a few times to see what works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Iterable?

I like how well the CRM and the messaging section works together. We are able to send very targeted email campaigns to our customers all by using the audience segmentation. The journey program is also very easy to understand the basics of and makes it nice to build a user journey with a very visible flow map. Other softwares I have used in the past do not have a journey map available so when you are building it, it is harding to visualize the steps that the customer would be taking through the journey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

Unless you are an html coder the basic wysiwyg and drag & drop email builders make it difficult to build out certain layout designs. Also wish they had a better list in the knowledge center for what personalizing handlebars are available. The support page provides good articles about personalized handlebars, but also can be difficult to put the correct versions needed into your email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Iterable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Iterable has released more ways to use design templates. Insted of having a whole email as a template, you can now templatize certain sections of your emails. This is nice when you are running a longer campaign that needs to be added to your other emails; it makes it much easier to bring in that one specific section into an email you already have built out.

What do you like best about Iterable?

Iterable has been one of the most useful platforms for our company. It enables us to send out millions of emails within a few minutes. Their transparency with system statuses and their proactive communication during outages or maintenance windows have built a strong sense of trust.

The user interface is simple and easy to us, and their support team is responsive and knowledgeable. Overall, Iterable has significantly improved our marketing operations and customer engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

It would be nice to have a snippet API endpoint in order to streamline our internal processes. A proper sandbox environment would be extremely useful as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Iterable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Iterable allows us to send emails at a rate that far surpasses Marketo. Their system uptime has also allowed us to consistently reach out customers with little worry about issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Iterable?

First and foremost, Iterable's premium support via Slack is some of the best support I've ever received from a vendor. Secondly, this platform honors its name - Iterable's product development team really is constantly 'iterating' on this platform and improving it at a pace that is almost challenging to keep up with. As a whole, this tool lets us accomplish particularly custom journeys via filtering that limits our dependence on our own engineering team. Overall very satisfied with the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

Reporting is powerful but clunky/doesn't answer all of our questions and we ultimately just refer to connected data in Looker. Could also use an alerting interface given how massive the processes are that we run out of this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Iterable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Iterable helps us automate over 500 campaigns via 175+ automated journeys across email, push, SMS and in-app channels to consumer and partner audiences. It supports our hyper-personalized dynamic content needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Iterable?

Overall I find the platform pretty easy to use. I am most indulged into the automation of processes, such as through Journeys. Our experience with your customer support is mostly great as well, the team is very responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

I think the analytics could be a bit more granular. I think the platform is very well suited for bigger teams, while it makes it difficult to justify the high cost of Iterable subscription for a small indie team like ourselves, where it is mostly just 1 person operating it on part-time, with many other assignements along with the CRM tool. A smaller package for such a team would make a lot of sense for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Iterable solving and how is that benefiting you?

The biggest addition is email marketing. Along with that we use it for Push notifications, although we still send a lot of those hard-coded as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Iterable?

I like the User experience and user-friendliness of Iterable and find it nice to look at generally. We also have the ability to do lots of things in different ways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Iterable?

I wish you could delete profile fields and rename snippets. I would also like to be able to use dynamic lists with catalogs.

I think there could be UI improvements on the Experiment section within campaigns. It is kinda hard to click and see the different versions clearly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Iterable solving and how is that benefiting you?

Iterable allows us to personalize our content based on things like wherever someone is free or paid, a student, a certain type of professional, etc. We have lots of control over audiences and visibility on how journeys play out for our customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
