System Reliability system-reliability
We’ve made further improvements to the core Marketo infrastructure, including better sequencing, fewer mismatches, and improved Munchkin stability.
SFDC Sync Performance sfdc-sync-performance
Take advantage of richer and faster synchronization across Marketo and Salesforce. Data changes that require bulk updates on accounts or leads can be split into parallel queues to avoid backlogs. Events and tasks now also synchronize up to 50% faster.
Analytics Performance Improvements analytics-performance-improvements
Recent infrastructure improvements offer increased uptime and stability within the Marketo reporting and analytics tools, allowing you to build ad hoc reports more quickly.
Recipient Time Zone recipient-time-zone
With this new feature, you can now hold and deliver email according to local time zones. Email and engagement programs can be configured to be delivered in the recipients’ time zones, eliminating the need to create multiple programs—send once and Marketo will automatically hold the email until the correct local time. Lift email metrics, observe local practices, and save time by using a single program globally.
Review Sample Emails by Segment review-sample-emails-by-segment
Marketo has a new option to pick a segment when sending sample emails for review. You no longer need to manually determine which segment a lead belongs to, making it easier to send emails containing dynamic content to different segments.
LinkedIn Lead Gen Custom Questions linkedin-lead-gen-custom-questions
Customize your LinkedIn Lead Gen forms to collect custom lead attributes. You can now ask up to three custom questions per form, choose from single line text input or multiple-choice questions, and map back to Marketo lead fields.
Slack Integration slack-integration
We released two features as part of our new Slack integration:
- System notifications: Get Slack notifications regarding important events in your Marketo instance, like alerts about current campaign statuses and any issues that require immediate attention.
- Interesting moments: When a Marketo Insight has been triggered by a known individual from a sales account, lead owners can be notified via Slack. Notifications include lead information as well as details about the sales account.
