### "Perfect for prospection and automatizing processes."

February 7, 2025

4.0

Very good, very complete and not as expensive as other prospection tools.

Pros

It is very easy to automize sales processes and uses AI to personalize the messages I send, as well I like that can automatize simple tasks such as visit the profile in linkedin.

Cons

It doesn't cater to the personality as other tools.

Awful - will not communicate; will not return my money

Pros

Nothing. Received no valid leads and paid $1600.

### "Easiest bluk email tool for those with little experience"

June 18, 2023

5.0

My team uses lemlist to run some of our email campaigns. Even though email outreach isn't our primary area, we were very quickly able to get to grips with it thanks to the simpe interface. All in all, it's a very simple but effective outreach tool

Pros

I just love how simplistic the interface is. It's definitely ahead of its time in that aspect. It make sit very easy to quickly set up and track email campaigns.

Cons

I found its features a bit lacking considering the price. I think it would be better if there were supplementary features added to make the email campaigns work more effectively. Namesly, the email validator, which costs extra for some reason

### "Great for small marketing & sales teams"

April 30, 2024

5.0

Pros

It’s easy to create campaigns with both email and LinkedIn automations in a simple workflow. Offers A/B split testing, contact enrichment & verification (emails and LinkedIn profiles) and removes a lot of manual data cleansing work.

Cons

It’s difficult to manage contacts across different campaigns (eg automatically add contacts to another campaign if they do X in a different campaign).

### "Terrible customer support and they removed a key feature we were using."

May 3, 2024

1.0

I would not recommend them to anyone. Especially for how many great companies are out there that do what they already do.

Pros

I used Lemlist for several years and I liked it. Their email editor was easy to use, and apart from little annoyances, I was a happy user.

Cons

Their customer support is incredibly friendly and utterly incompetent. Their support is not technical and only relays what their technical people tell them, so you can never get a straight answer on anything. I could point them to specific problems and I would be told vague answers and never get a resolution. I finally had to give up on several key problems and just move to a new provider. The final straw was they removed support for a type of email connection (SMTP) they had supported. They did this without warning and in a way that broke their UX so that I couldn't create any new campaigns or update login/password info for those connection methods. They refused to grandfather me in, which is their right, but they also didn't refund me for the massive pain they caused our operations team. I politely reached out to their \[sensitive content hidden\] to chat with them and never heard back anything. Given how often they invited users to contact them, I was a bit surprised.

### "Lemlist Rocks!"

June 4, 2020

5.0

Warming up campaigns is definitely one of the biggest wins. I love how you can still use lemwarm even after warming up a campaign to keep your inbox engaged and healthy. The statistics for lemwarm and many others make it very easy to keep your inbox happy and healthy. The dynamic images and pages definitely help break the normal boring messages that most of us have all received at some point. It creates a very personal touch even if it is automated. They amount of templates available straight out of the box, definitely helps someone get started.

Pros

The ease and flow of the UI/UX is absolutely beautiful. Very Dynamic software and very creative with dynamic images and Landing Pages. One of the biggest things that brought me to the platform from using a different service is "Lemwarm" and the ability to automatically warm up your inbox before getting ready to launch a campaign. So many amazing features. There was definitely thought and intention with the entire platform to embody everything needed to launch a "cold" email campaign that doesn't feel so cold.

Cons

Downsides? What downsides? ;) i definitely haven't found anything about the platform or Lemlist, that I don't love!

January 7, 2025

4.0

The support is great and very responsive when I have questions.

Pros

Easy to use. Extensive database has many filtering options

Cons

The reporting is confusing. Would be nice to have more advanced reporting and ability to create lists based on reports (ie non-opens, clicks).

### "The no 1 tool to use for outbound email marketing"

August 28, 2024

5.0

My overall experience has been great, the product is fantastic, new features are consistently being added and their support team are extremely responsive and helpful.

Pros

Lemlist is by far the easiest to use email automation tool I have used. It has a clean user interface. I also like the campaign automation steps you can set up. For example integrating an automated linkedin step that will automatically view a prospects linkedin page and then follow up with a connection request.

Cons

Had some issues with configuring some domains but ultimately got this resolved.

### "Great platform, great support"

September 28, 2023

5.0

The application is really central to our outbound efforts and has helped us run multiple campaigns to reach target audiences we've previously found difficult to connect with. But their real asset is the support and guidance, continuously providing ideas and ways to improve. This have been really valuable.

Pros

Application is really easy to use. Easy to personalise email messages and create follow ups to generate leads. Thery're continuously improving the platform and it's now easy to message linkedin contacts within each campaign. Data can imported directly from Linkedin or other sources and have features to ensure email addresses don't bounce.

Cons

After an import, reviewing contacts can be time consuming especially in multi touch campaigns. I end up deleting emails deemed risky or undeliverable one by one as I haven't worked out how to filter them and skip a predefined batch.

### "Good for Email Marketing but Pricey "

March 15, 2023

4.0

Have an average experience using Lemlist

Pros

Lemlist is an excellent email marketing tool due to its user-friendly interface. The option to review before sending is especially helpful for those who want to add a highly personalized touch to their message. Additionally, implementing and scaling dynamic media add-ins such as video thumbnails and images is effortless.

Cons

Although the tool enables users to create a sequence and move contacts through an email flow, it lacks complex automation features. Consequently, constructing intricate flows that direct contacts to different lists and sequences based on their actions or inactions becomes slightly more challenging.

### "I have only tried it a few times"

April 12, 2018

4.0

None yet.

Pros

I've bought it almost exclusively because of its option to send each recipient image with different text over it.

Cons

Currently I am using gmass.co (integrates with gmail and sends emails with custom variables from google sheets file) and SEO PowerTools LinkAssistant (sends emails with custom variables from its outreach table) for outreach. I have also used ARP reach and some other software packages extensively in the last few years, so I would say that I am proficient in outreach. In order to use Lemlist more I need to see three things: - ability to use my own SMPT server - editable table with contacts (name, email, other custom variables I might need) which is easy to use (something like a google sheets. It doesn't have to have many options, just editing fields in the table would do). This is needed so that I can easily see list of recipients and add/edit/delete them as necessary - ability for Lemlist to warn me if I am sending an email to a a contact which I already contacted with the same email template There are more, I am following your Trello feature request board. All in all, you are on the good path and I am excited about new options. All the Best, Vojkan

### "Customer Service / Billing will take your money"

February 8, 2023

2.0

Terrible. Avoid it at all costs.

Pros

Nothing to be honest. It wasn’t easy to setup and I didn’t find that it made a difference.

Cons

The customer support / billing has been atrocious. I cancelled my account months ago and they have continuously charged our account - trying to get a refund has been a disaster.

### "Experience is great. Now I can send multiple customized emails with a few clicks."

March 28, 2018

5.0

Lemlist saves my time, business cost and allows me to be more productive. Also, sending out customized email to my clients is now a breeze, only through Lemlist :-)

Pros

Since most of our business clients are based in different geographies all across the globe, scheduling the emails according to client's time zone is a great feature. Also, the cusomized auto follow up helps in saving time, enhancing my work schedule and an increased productivity. Lemlist is an amazing tool for all sales professionals and other ones looking to send out bulk email and that too customized ones.

Cons

Initially, I faced a bit of concern while changing the way I worked on my leads through excel and now transitioning over to Lemlist. However, once I moved past that phase, I think Lemlist is seriously helping me save time and business cost.

Pros

### "Changed my cold email game"

May 20, 2021

5.0

I wouldn't be able to do the prospecting and sales activities without lemlist. Plus, the Hubspot integration makes lemlist a true part of my sales process.

Pros

The customization possibilities. Sending cold emails with a personal twist increases my open rate and overall campaign response. Lemlist allows me to do this at scale.

Cons

The Chrome extension is glitchy, I had to remove and install multiple times to get it to work. That said, their support helped a lot.

### "Very decent product. The user interface can be easier to use and navigate"

April 1, 2018

4.0

Ability to set custom schedules per campaign going out? Image templates allowed to get a higher open rate on client emails

Pros

Advanced image templates: You can create, store and use their templates for my emails and that really helps me stand out with my emails to prospective clients Easy to add new leads to an ongoing campaign Custom tracking domain when sending emails

Cons

Not the most intuitive interface Campaign setup not quick and easy (should be a lot more seamless) Documentation of instructions can be more thorough, I had to question the developer too many times Can't use more than one gmail address at once on account Not enough automation with the campaigns. Would like a little more functionality apart from stopping on click, but it's a decent start Customer support could be faster in their response times Not possible to organize email templates in sidebar
