GetResponse vs. Maxemail

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.

Maxemail is perfect for sending newsletters to customers, as well as triggered emails and lifecycle emails. It proves vast ability for you to use customer data to make rich personalisation, and gives excellent deliverability.

• If you understand coding the ability to use dynamic content based on smart searches was very useful.

• Maxemail provides fantastic deliverability for our emails.

Incentivized

• Lists are rejected on baseless grounds.
• They recommend a service to clean lists and even after being cleaned, emails and lists are rejected.
• They purged 80% of our email list because they were not interacting regularly enough with our emails.
• Their drag and drop editor is set up poorly, if you have similar look and feel emails there is no way to know which you are in.
• Often email templates do not save and you have to start over.
• Sometimes scheduled emails don't even send.

• Maxemail lacks a lot of the 'add-ons' companies like mailchimp and others provide - such as landing pages and Zapier integration - but they don't need these features really and the features they do have excel above and beyond other companies.
• Maxemail user interface looks daunting and was hard to teach to some people.

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

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.

Maxemail had the perfect blend of the features we needed with pricing that works for us and incredible customer service. They did not have pushy sales, just transparent quality.

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• Maxemail was more experienced than our previous provider but the additional cost is small compared to the much higher quality.
• Maxemail has given us flexbility to try a lot of things that have improved our email metrics.
• Maxemail's customer service is quick and responsive so saves us time trying to get things done.
