MarcomCentral vs Yesware

MarcomCentral did exactly what we expected. It helped us automate our design and printing process by creating templates that took the place of our one-off designs. We were at a point where every business card, in a corporation that had 5,000 employees, was created by one of our designers. We had great support with our implementation team and customer service. They are constantly improving their product, which was great.

Overall, our five-year relationship with MarcomCentral has been positive. While we've hit our roadblocks, the team always arises to the challenge. The software helped us create an environment where local markets can autonomously create marketing/event materials, while achieving brand consistency by locking down the branded design elements and incorporating an approval workflow. The platform, however, is not particularly strong with copy fitting, and the rich text editor does not entirely fill the design gap, so most of our more complex brochures have to be custom designed. Over the last 5 years the software has significantly progressed to incorporate our enhancement suggestions and keep up with industry trends, though at times we've experience long turnaround times for work and requests. Though, the new support ticketing system gives greater transparency into the process.

The benefits is having a location for all things brand from Sentry. We want to keep it simple for users to know where to go, and have quick and easy access to what they need to enhance their workplace duties. The software provides the resource for supporting and strengthening our brand.

What do you like best about Yesware? Ability to get real-time feedback to see when the email is opened or reopened. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Yesware? Vague on who is opening email if a colleague is copied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Yesware: It is a great tool to use in sales process. I would be interested in how others have used the scheduling or attachment tracking aspect of the software. When I have used it in the past, people have had challenges in opening it so I decided to stop using that feature. I would recommend if you are working with a colleague on a project not copy them as it is difficult to distinguish who open the email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Yesware solving and how is that benefiting you? Ability to see if proper follow-up is needed. If email is being opened multiple times or shared with others.
