Stephen B
CEO
4.0

Stephen: Hi, my name is Stephen. I'm the CEO of Kayak Capital, and I give Constant Contact, a four out of five rating. Before using Constant Contact, I considered MailChimp as an alternative. The reason I chose Constant Contact, it's more widely recognized as a professional service, and it also integrated with my CRM more easily. Integration with Constant Contact was relatively easy. They worked directly with my CRM to integrate it and to upload my contacts into Constant Contact. My recommendation would be to work with Constant Contact to customize your output, to take off the constant contact name off the bottom, that's doable if you pay an additional fee.
