Pros

Being built directly into Marketing Cloud is a big plus! The implementation is very light and it can be up and running within minutes. There's really no need for specific training either since the interface is very user friendly and designed on top of MC.

Cons

Pricing goes up as the number of Marketing Cloud BUs increases. If you're working across multiple BUs, it's worth talking to their team to get a dedicated offer.
