And I agree with that sentiment, it's always preferable, but in our use case a margin of error of +/- 1 day is acceptable, so I'm going to save the headache of troubleshooting date objects and using the proper libraries for another day

I think I found a simpler way of doing this. Excuse me if I leave out something obvious because I'm new to velocity, but it's working in my tests and seemed conceptually simpler to me. The idea is that you convert each date to integers, and then simply subtract the two.I'm trying to determine that a...

Hey Austin - follow me and then shoot me a private message me with a link to your unsubscribe page. I can take a look and try to help you out. We recently deployed SSL without problems.

Also, let's not forget about the massive infrastructure and processing speed improvements that happened over the last couple of years. Remember how that smart list that now takes 5 seconds to load used to take 10 minutes? It hasn't been visible, so I don't think it's received the credit it deserves,...

I have to admit that getting charged for SSL, although a small charge compared to the overall contract, does sting. Security warnings on pages without SSL are now becoming standard across the web. It should be self-provisioning and default in new subscriptions. It's the kind of improvements they cou...

Our experience has been the opposite, and I think this may simply vary by your CSM and/or their manager. When Marketo was owned by Vista, we felt like our CSM was very aggressive and we were being arbitrarily squeezed, where as our current CSM seems more focused on building a healthy long-term relat...

Regarding the email program, I think it's a great example of how Marketo was struggling with its direction, and tried to hobble together a flashy new feature rather than continuing to improve on their core platform. It's useful primarily for two things: A/B testing and sending in time-zone. Why not ...

I was formerly a support engineer at Marketo before moving on to be a Marketo admin myself several years ago. From what I recall, each server will have several different customers on it, and each server has some extra resources that can be assigned to speed up an instance's SFDC sync. HOWEVER - if t...

Update: they told me they had to roll back the last one and a fix is scheduled for August.
