GetResponse vs. MailCampaigns

GetResponse is good for marketing automation newbies that want a powerful platform without a steep learning curve. It appears to have a strong set of tools for creating automated sequences, but it's not your solution for large enterprise usage. Also, seeing as how competitive the market's become, while it's not expensive per se, it is a bit on the pricey side relative to some.

It's particularly well-suited for e-commerce businesses looking to send targeted product recommendations based on browsing history and past purchases. However, it may be less appropriate for organizations requiring extensive design customization or those with simple, low-volume email needs. The software is HIPAA compliant and has a SOC 2 certification, which are both huge factors considering we work with sensitive customer data that as a company have to be compliant to do everything within the necessary regulations of data protection.

• Often email templates do not save and you have to start over.
• Sometimes scheduled emails don't even send.

As I mentioned before. I believe that the platform is easy to use. Simple and easy process from start to finish. Email efficient and get to the client quickly. Catch errors that would prevent getting to where i need it to go. Overall great experience and would renew without question

In fact, we started seeing ROI on the MailCampaigns app in the first three months of using it. The time needed to setup and learn quickly paid off later when we started seeing better campaign performance and more revenue for our email marketing campaigns.

Excellent general support. However, in case of an escalation, their turnaround time over email (follow through) can go higher

Over the years we have worked with quite a few email platforms. We feel that GetResponse is a solid competitor. The CRM side is not as strong as a product like Keep but we don't expect it to be. If we are really being fair and comparing apples to apples, then GetResponse is as good as any of these other products. Especially in the area of the visual builder, I honestly think it is just about as good as Keep. And it is better than some of these other products. Again, keeping in mind the cost and the niche GetResponse fills, it stacks up very well against the other products we have used.

Prior to MailCampaigns, I used Mailchimp and Constant Contact. While both are solid options, MailCampaigns offers superior segmentation capabilities. Unlike Mailchimp, which limits the number of segmentation conditions, MailCampaigns allows for unlimited layered segmentation

• Our marketing emails have been much more professional, scheduled, beautiful, and manageable since switching AWAY from GetResponse, so in that sense the platform did not provide the kind of ROI we'd prefer.
• For delivering our regular daily newsletter, GetResponse has served us well and has delivered at an above-average rate to our mailing list.
