  PROS CONS
SALESFORCE SEND EMAILS
  • Reuse a previous send to reduce the need to configure all send components at every send (efficient and less risk for error)
  • Name the email send as desired (valuable for reporting & troubleshooting)
  • Stay organized by placing email sends in folders
  • Less modern interface
GUIDED SEND
  • Send via an intuative, step-by-step wizard which is easily navigated to while creating an email
  • Must configure send components for every send (inefficient & increased room for error)
  • Randomly named email send (difficult to troubleshoot and creates reporting limitation)
