Mailshake vs. Sugar Connect

Mailshake is great for cold prospecting and drip email campaigns. I do not think Mailshake is well-suited for hyper-personalized one-to-one emailing.

Great for tracking communications with anyone in your CRM. Because of Collabspot, we have a culture of documenting emails in Sugar. I suppose Collabspot wouldn't be necessary if your CRM had an extension for your email client.

• Saving time by sending pre-defined follow up messages to those who do not open the email or respond.
• Great detailed stats in the dashboard.
• Integration with CRM for automatic import of leads.
• Great deliverability of emails with G Suite integration.

• Makes saving emails in SugarCRM really easy
• Flexible as to which types of records you can save to
• Accurate reporting on opens and clicks
• Easily add new records to SugarCRM from Gmail inbox

• Mailshake works only with Gmail/G Suite accounts.
• The only option for customizing emails is in the CSV file. It would be great if there were a feature in the tool for this.
• Missing starts about the total number of opens of an email (it is only tracked once).

• The payment plan that Collabspot provides does not have many advantages over the free plan.
• The scores do not reflect the true assessment towards clients and candidates.
• Mail templates have an outdated design.

I found it pretty good - we were able to put email templates and campaigns together almost immediately. The reason I gave it an 8 is because if you want to edit those templates, the saving and making sure they were part of the campaigns was a little tricky and not intuitive.

Quick support. They offer very extensive and detailed tutorials on how to use the tool, as well as how to succeed in sending emails the right way. It probably reduces the number of support tickets and general support needs. The videos make it very easy to use their solutions. Great way to educate new clients.

You can use Mailchimp or SendGrid for similar use, with Mailchimp the email automation is limited, and SendGrid holds up quite well. However, Mailshake is strictly designed and well equipped for email outreach and unusually cold emails, and its usability is second to none.

Collabspot offers a better price compared to the competition and many customization possibilities. The emails are more direct and cause a great impact; against the competition, Collabspot has an advantage. Finally, Collabspot belongs to the select group of quality applications and with fairly good prices.

• I'd say it was a net negative for us because the initiative did not lead to sales for us. It was probably HOW we were using it, and not the fault of the product itself. If you have luck with cold emails, and just need a new platform, Mailshake could be a great, and inexpensive option. Our loss was mostly employee time, and learning what doesn't work for us is a positive in the end.

• The staff that enters is of guaranteed quality.
• Customers can respond to our requests quickly.
• The staff of the administration is much more committed to their work.
