How Customer.io wins
Messaging automation for the whole lifecycle
Customer.io offers an intuitive workflow builder for seamless multi-channel messaging. In contrast, Marketo’s complex campaign creation demands extensive support and incurs additional costs for third-party tools, making it an expensive and resource-intensive choice beyond email.
World-class customer support from day one
Customer.io has a world-class technical support team, boasting a 99% CSAT score and a two-hour first-response SLA. Benefit from a 90-day onboarding with a dedicated CSM for a smooth setup and first campaign. On the other hand, Marketo sells service plans separately, often leaving customers without vital technical support and strategic guidance. Choose Customer.io for immediate and comprehensive support, ensuring a swift start to your messaging success.
Unlimited messaging automation
Enjoy unlimited messaging automation with all plans, providing limitless user seats, segments, attribute storage, events, workflow triggers, and more. Marketo restricts basic campaign-related features like users, API calls, and custom objects, often dependent on plan type.
With the flexibility and interoperability of Customer.io, we’ve been able to build some truly insane and elaborate onboarding flows. We’re sending webhooks, moving people down different paths, A/B testing, adding dynamic content with liquid, and automatically segmenting based on where the user came from.

Our CSM surfaces and fixes issues before they even arise. It’s been amazing having an experienced partner to rely on who I trust.
Heloisa Assis, Marketing Manager, Olivia
Messaging frequency is key for our strategy. We can’t email our customers daily, so increasing frequency with a multi-channel strategy is how we can scale message volume. The conversion rates prove that strategy is working.
