Salesforce Marketing Cloud review

Salesforce Marketing Cloud is the most powerful option here, but it is built for companies with a Salesforce team and an enterprise budget. Salesforce's pricing page lists Marketing Cloud Next Growth Edition at $1,500 per org per month billed annually, with a Campaign Agent, agentic content, multi-channel journeys, forms and landing pages, consent management and campaign attribution reporting. Advanced, at $3,250, adds agentic campaigns, conversational email, RCS, SMS and WhatsApp, custom automation events and AI-powered engagement scoring. Salesforce Personalization for web, app and email is a separate product from $8,000 per org per month. Because it runs on the Salesforce CRM, marketing journeys can use the same accounts, opportunities and service data that sales and support teams already maintain. Smaller teams should note that the same page lists a Salesforce Starter suite with marketing, sales, service and commerce from $25 per user per month, which is a lighter way to start.

Who it is for

Larger companies already on Salesforce that need multichannel journeys and attribution at enterprise scale.
