PathFactory is a winning platform for content marketers
Overall Satisfaction with PathFactory
PathFactory is primarily managed and used by the marketing department, with some spillover use by the sales team.
Pros
- Micro-level content engagement metrics by time spent and key topic areas, extremely useful for sales intelligence and ABM
- Easy to deploy curated content tracks that turn a single piece of content into a binge-worthy experience
- Customer specific content pages (explore pages) are easily deployed and highly effective - and make the prospect feel good about the effort we're putting in
- Time-specific engagement triggers make our lead scoring much more intelligent
- Unbelievably comprehensive reporting system is intuitive and offers many insights across both content utilization, ENGAGEMENT and ROI
Cons
- Inability to automatically organize list of content items by reverse chronology means new content must be drag-dropped to top of page. Not a huge deal but a minor annoyance.
- Much improved optimization of content based scoring leads to higher quality MQL triggers to sales
- Binge rates of content are sky high
- Form submissions are much higher than previous solutions due to being able to gate things in more creative, engagement based methods rather than a hard form up front
- Intelligence fed to sales team via salesforce integration is an amazing resource
I used the incumbent for probably 6 or 7 years across 3 companies. I made the switch due to enhanced analytics engine and the sophistication of the track based content system that is offered by PathFactory. I am very happy with my decision and couldn't imagine doing content marketing and engagement any other way.
