How should I shortlist Marketing Automation?

How should pricing be compared?

Use a three-year total-cost model covering renewal price, seats, usage, add-ons, implementation, migration, integrations, training, administration, and payment or transaction fees.

What should a product trial include?

Use representative data and complete one end-to-end workflow, one exception, one report, one integration, a permission test, and an export.

What matters in this decision

Marketing automation should connect audience data, consent, journeys, and revenue measurement rather than simply send more messages.
