    Pros
    Drip Global, Inc
    • Simplicity + power. Drip is one of the quickest platforms to use in terms of setting up simple drip email sequences. Yet it also packs enormous power if you need to do complex automation.
    • Drip's direct integrations with other systems mean you can easily create hyper-personalized communications and anybody can set this up.
    • Drip's Javascript embed is easy to setup and great for helping to build deeper insights into customer behavior as well as triggering automation.

    Cons
    Drip Global, Inc
    • Possibly more email design templates for "new" users to automation, HTML coding, integrations, webhooks, etc.
    • Any supported integration partners are always good to see. They have expanded in this area, recently.
    • Some sort of WYSIWYG, drag-and-drop email editor, wouldn't hurt.
    • Sometimes, when trying to implement advanced HTML coding to an email template, the code doesn't stick, save or format as "native HTML."

    Again, this is dependent on the use case. If you are a small- to medium-sized business that doesn't have a sales team, this is likely a great product for you. It is also a good price compared to larger enterprise software. Other software I have used worked better for other companies I worked for, but Drip fits best for my current company.

    I use both SimplyCast and Act-On. Act-On ties in with our database, I use SimplyCast in order to send e-mails that don't look exactly like our other e-mails

    • We do get responses from our e-mails
    • Do not get a lot of information like we do from Act-On
