Marketing Associate in Marketing at Mindstream Media Group (Marketing & Advertising, 51-200 employees)
Chose Constant Contact Lead Gen & CRM
SharpSpring has an abundance of features, technology and value for the cost, especially compared to other platforms. We needed a large number of contacts and email allowance primarily. Either the other platforms didn't stack up in terms of features or functionality, or the cost …

Director of Marketing Technology in Marketing at Millennium Marketing Solutions (Marketing & Advertising, 11-50 employees)
Chose Constant Contact Lead Gen & CRM
SharpSpring compares very closely with HubSpot. They have many of the same features and abilities, and their pricing is close. We preferred SharpSpring's monthly contracts over HubSpot's which is why we went with them.
As for the other tools you can't really compare. Zoho CRM is …

Solutions specialist in Sales at LSEO (Marketing & Advertising, 11-50 employees)
Chose Constant Contact Lead Gen & CRM
Not to sound like we are rookies in the game, but the LSEO team was using the Google Drive suite of products in the past; everything from tracking, to data, to touches, all was in the Drive suite. It was painstaking and made the process much more difficult. SharpSpring has …

President in Marketing at Spider Marketing Group (Marketing & Advertising, 1-10 employees)
Chose Constant Contact Lead Gen & CRM
We chose SharpSpring over HubSpot and Mailchimp mainly due to the wide range of features SharpSpring offered at a very competitive price. HubSpot was similar but almost twice as expensive and Mailchimp's features were not as comprehensive. We also felt that SharpSpring was more …

ActiveCampaign is a solid email marketing platform that includes many automation features. Sharpspring is more of a fully featured marketing automation as opposed to an email marketing platform with automation features. We chose to move to Sharpspring as it included …

Chose Constant Contact Lead Gen & CRM
I tried several platforms before deciding on SharpShpring. Most are very good and get the job done. Some are more focused on users at the enterprise level. Others on the SMB marketing. The main difference for us is that we are an agency focused on the SMB market. The …

Chief Operating Officer in Corporate at Palmetto School of Career Development (Education Management, 51-200 employees)
Chose Constant Contact Lead Gen & CRM
SharpSpring was the best combination of affordability and features that I found. Zoho has lots of features but they are spread across multiples services within Zoho and the price is too high for the complete suite. SugarCRM is basically an expensive calendar/Excel sheet …

Chief Marketing Officer in Marketing at Get Above The Fold (Marketing & Advertising, 1-10 employees)
Chose Unbounce
SharpSpring integrates well with a robust CRM, but is more difficult to use. Again, I think Unbounce does a really great job of providing a landing page solution that provides the necessary functionality and tools to do a decent job. I'd like to see Unbounce expand its ability …

Constant Contact is excellent for small businesses wanting a simple email to their customers and leads. We've found that it's not the most robust solution for more complex funnels involved in e-commerce or information publishing. For instance, setting up specific flows based on user behavior, VIP status, and other attributes is lacking.

The landing page builder is a bit hard to use. Doesn’t have much flexibility.
Sometimes confusing between types of workflows to use. Opportunity versus visual.
If you imported contacts that weren’t formatted correctly. It is hard to delete a bull amount. Need to type DELETE for each one manually. No bull options to make changes.

One of the cons of Unbouncewas the learning curve. We are very familiar now with the ends and outs but in the beginning, it would have been super helpful to have some sore of learning up front.
The pricing structure is not great for our particular organization. We will never need unlimited page views but we do often need more landing pages we make it work but the pricing model could be improved.
The reporting could be a little better. We supplement with some of our own trackings but for the most part, the reporting from Unbounce is a basic level understanding of how the page is performing.

We have been very impressed with all aspects of this software and the potential for it to radically change how we operate is huge! Support has been exceptional and we have discovered many extra uses for the software than originally thought. Not only will it give us benefits for our company's growth, but for our client's growth as well.

The nonprofit discount makes it so affordable that my client was happy to continue their subscription all year round. They have used it to build landing pages to capture expressions of interest for their next recruitment window. It hasn't quite produced the sort of results we were hoping for, but I'm not sure that's Unbounce's fault.

This rating is coming from an administrative perspective. With so many features, workflows, dashboards, and more, there is certainly a lot going on, and even the most savvy software user can get a little overwhelmed when trying to decide how to best implement and utilize the platform to its full potential. That being said, the SharpSpring platform is well-implemented and well-organized, with most solutions being fairly intuitive, once you have a grasp of the software. It is fairly easy to learn, but difficult to master. Just like any powerful platform, however, the complexity is worth it, and once you are comfortable navigating and problem solving within SharpSpring, it becomes a great marketing and sales tool which can do virtually anything you need it to.

Unbounce made it easy for my team to build landing pages for website and email. We gained valuable A/B testing insights and gathered information from visitors effectively converting them to leads. The Editor is straight forward and I was able to learn to use it on my own without instruction. CRM integration was easy and consistently worked.
The support is great which really helps overcome challenges if you become stuck and the training videos are great too. Same-day replies are great and I even got some help with some CSS code on the chat. Not many organizations would do this or even respond.

Unbounce customer support is very strong. We have been able to connect with them via email and telephone mediums. They are very knowledgeable and can effectively help resolve difficult problems that are slowing us down. Overall Unbounce customer support is very professional. Our wait times have always been small or at least reasonable.

Overall I would say to be patient and bring everyone who will be touching the platform to the onboarding sessions. The Virtual Classroom lets you onboard as quickly or slowly as you want. Sales, marketing, design, account management, get 'em all in on it. For the most part, they will be happy to use this platform. I recommend getting as many people as possible to see the SharpSpring demo.

Choose a subdomain that is appropriate for multiple types of pages. You don't want to have to keep changing it. Think about using Google Tag Manager to manage your Google Analytics code and event tracking. Build one landing page to completion. Then make a copy of it if you need to create variant pages.

Despite my review for unbounce being not the greatest review or score in the world, when stacked up against its two biggest competitors, I'd prefer Unbounce over Leadpages and Instapage. Leadpages drag and drop editor, integrations, and overall UI/UX is 10x worse than unbounce and unbounce really leads in the category of nice templates and quickness to a production landing page with much better options and integrations.

Streamlined Processes - sales and marketing are now all in the same place.
Reduced Number of Platforms/Tools - CRM/lead management, email, automation, landing pages, forms, etc are all in the same place rather than using multiple tools.
Time-saving - sales pipeline is very easy to use for sales. For marketing, we have dozens of workflows that eliminate much of our manual processes from the past.
Return on Investment - We're more focused on moving the building the business than ever before because SharpSpring has simplified so many of our business operations and we're seeing massive results!
Lead generation - Up SIGNIFICANTLY (between 3x & 4x) since setting up SharpSpring.
