New team members can easily pick up Instapage for building campaigns and landing pages. Helps the company minimize training time to get employees up to speed. Very short learning curve!
The fact that it auto-builds a web-version of your page - saves a lot of time having to manually do it. Big time saver!

Pros

Easy to use landing pages.
Good a/b testing.
Already pre-built templates.

Not robust enough to be your whole website.
Somewhat expensive. We'd love it to be cheaper, or have a free option for smaller clients of ours.
Could have a whole followup mechanism for people who convert on these pages.

Josh Summerhays View profile

VP of Product Development in Product Management at Elevated Worldwide (1-10 employees employees)

Pros

Instapage makes it easy to frame out a landing page really quickly. They provide template blocks for various components of a landing page (header, features, testimonials, etc.) that you can easily modify for your own needs. Other tools provide whole-page templates, but I much prefer the section-level templating. It's more convenient to assemble a page this way and add the details on top of that versus taking a finished template and peeling away design and functional elements to get what I want.
Instapage's mobile auto-resizer works better than other platforms I've used. I found that I had many fewer adjustments on their auto-resizing of the full page than I've experienced with other tools. I still had to work with text size a bit, but they generally did a better job of ordering elements for mobile the way I would want and maintain proportionality of page elements better.
Instapage has a lot of integrations that marketers will love. I don't know if they particularly stand out in this respect, but this is a particularly important aspect of their tool that most marketers will care about.

Cons

Instapage is a bit rigid when it comes to text. You get to choose one font for headers, one for your body copy and you are restricted to those styles throughout your page.
Layout and positioning controls are very precise. You will see pixel distances as you're dragging elements around the screen (though they often didn't measure from the other elements I would have preferred to see), but there's no fine-grain control of pixel positioning of elements. This ultimately was a deal-breaker for me. I didn't want to eye-ball everything I was putting on a page.
You only get two choices of page width, 960px and full-width. If you want a fixed width larger than 960? Tough cookies. This was another deal-breaker for me, ultimately. I had to have more flexibility.

Return on Investment

We never really got out of the blocks with Instapage because of the limitations I mentioned before. We were paying customers for a month and then switched.
