Mailshake vs. Reply

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.

I find this tool to be the best and most precise Sales Engagement Software that is currently available on the market. [Reply] has some great automation tools that so beautifully keep all the leads on track, which can easily create content and even lead to a better presence in the market arena. Hence, with all that being said, I highly recommend this software to businesses, especially to implement within their Sales and Marketing teams.

• 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.

• While building campaigns, Reply shows you how likely it is that your content will receive a reply.
• Reply has useful training material.
• The insights are great. I can see when an email has been opened or clicked.

• 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).

• There's not much editing options in terms of the email design, but it's not really a con since it allows the emails to get through picky Gmail and other email providers' filters.

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.

I generally receive a reply in no time at all and found not only the support org. but the sales team to be extremely helpful. Additionally I found a great onboarding process with plenty of resources to consume.

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.

We
use Reply for our outbound sales initiatives, and the system performs
excellently for us, outperforming any other platform. This is a fantastic
product that offers excellent value for money. I chose this above others for a
range of factors like it has made it simple for us to start up cold outreach
campaigns and execute quick and easy messaging tests. I think the Reply tool is
best for our company because it does a good job of solving our problem of
scaling outbound sales effectively and at a very reasonable price.

• 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.

• Reply has helped us successfully send hundreds of invitations that turned into customers that attended our events.
• We have lost money through the inability to export results of campaigns and therefore lost data and leads.
