Featured Reviews

Shakti Anand - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Manager- Admissions at Sector 125
Automation has transformed admissions follow-up and now drives higher lead-to-fee conversions
LeadSquared can be improved on various parameters. The platform should onboard various other vendors, such as a voice bot, which is a crucial requirement in the current market. LeadSquared is currently in the development phase of a voice bot, which is essential for connecting with prospective leads in a short duration. Improving the Converse feature, which is currently complex, will impact costing; however, if Converse is implemented, there would be no need to associate with other life or chatbots. Converse would suffice the requirement for voice and chatbots, and the voice AI could also replace the voice bot currently sought in the market. Regarding reporting, it has become easier with the new UI platform, but the reporting section can still be improved by providing an easier view for the analytics section. The current setup is slightly complex for a normal sales user to access and understand reports pulled from LeadSquared. The analytics section needs improvement, and there are filters that also require work. Triggering the number of leads that have not been connected after multiple dialing attempts requires multiple combinations through advanced filter options to pull out that data, which is complex for sales users. Certain tabs based on customer requirements and customization should become more accessible for the calling team to help them achieve connected call goals.

Integration with CRM and third-party systems significantly boosts campaign management
The native integration could be improved, as Oracle Eloqua has decommissioned it. Manual uploads require changing the data priority order to top priority. Sometimes form capturing data fails, and campaign response issues occur. The pricing of Oracle Eloqua is quite high as it is an Oracle product. Compared to other marketing automation platforms such as Marketo, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, and Pardot, the price point is higher. The technical support is rated at eight because it can be difficult to get in touch with them after working hours. Support is only available during business hours, so if assistance is needed outside of the nine-to-five window, users must wait until the next day.
