Just for fun, what single marketing automation or ESP did you use before graduating to Marketo? Pardot for us.

Mail Chimp.

Constant Contact.

Exact Target.

Email Labs.

Now on a mission to convert a bunch of marketers from Marketing Cloud and Pardot to Marketo lovers. I love how powerful Marketo is. If the interface can be a bit sexier, that'll make my preaching much easier.

Started off in Mailchimp. Used a little bit of Constant Contact before shifting to Marketo in my current role.

Miss the simplicity and quality of the email editors in Mailchimp and CC, but the additional automation functionality in Marketo for emails alone is amazing - let alone everything else we use automation for.

It's quite a change, though.
