He has really helped to elevate our understanding of how to use the software to its maximum potential, and has taken the time to demonstrate exactly what we need to do in order to customise our own newsletter. Full marks! Cons Nothing to say here - I only wanted to leave a review for \[sensitive content hidden\], not on the capability of the software itself.

KF Karen F. Product & Marketing Manager Leisure, Travel & Tourism ### "Worked with Forfront since 2011" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 January 17, 2023 We have worked with Forfront for 12 years, after switching from a different supplier. They are competitively priced which is an obvious advantage, but just as important in our view, is the ease of using the software and the customer service we receive. If we have an issue with something not working or, on occasion, we dont know how to do something or rectify and issue, they are available instantly. Live chatting and coming back to us if it is something which needs additional investigation or dev management. The tools are easy to use and extremely flexible, resulting in us being able to produce attractive e-mails, varying in content but maintaining our company style. We can manage and screen our clients engagement on each distribution and improve performance. Pros The flexibility of the software. Our product varies greatly (we are in the travel industry), depending on whether we are working with a destination partner or communicating on non-promotional material. We can apply our company design and style with ease and vary the content.Managing our contacts is very easy too. Being able to clearly see, whether as a snapshot or in-depth, who is engaged and with what part of the communication is vital in our marketing planning. Cons We sometimes have issue with mobile compatability of our designs. However, Forfront have always been very helpful at assisting and running analysis.

Marketing Manager Information Technology and Services ### "Outstanding customer support" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 May 26, 2021 An overall really positive experience. As someone who was completely new to email marketing when I first started to use e-shot, their training and support is what has gotten me to where I am now. The team are exceptionally supportive, efficient, and importantly - friendly! I have been an avid user of their chat bot feature and always leave any conversation wiser than I was before, about whatever the issue at hand was, and with a smile on my face because of their caring and personable approach to customer support. Pros The design feature in e-shot is easy and fun to use. Setting up an email campaign from start to finish is an efficient process, and being able to then check the deliverability of emails before sending via their email forensics features is a bonus. Although I don't have experience using an alternative email marketing platform to compare to, the features in e-shot are generally easy to use, particularly after a training session with one of their team members. They also seem pretty advanced, however you can utilise this as much as is needed. If all you want to do is create and send simple emails, you can. If you want to level up your email marketing strategy, you can. Whenever our tech team have has questions about integrations with external software, the team have been knowledgable and supported where they can. Cons I do feel there are aspects of analytics that could be improved. For instance there are aspects of clicking analytics that have never made sense to me - namely Link Statistics and Click Overlay, even after inquiring with the team. It seems the number of clickers is always far higher than is actually shown in the overall analytics of a campaign.

Response from Vendor July 6, 2021 Thank you for your lovely review Zhila! The team are always thrilled when they hear that they have been able to make a very real impact on our customers' success. It has been a pleasure working with you... With regards to the Analytics, we are working on improving the user interface of this section in much the same way you will have seen other areas updated recently. AU Anonymous User Fulfilment Director Marketing and Advertising ### "Competitive email marketing software backed by great customer support" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 February 23, 2021 We migrated all our email marketing activity painlessly from another provider around 3 years ago and have not looked back since. Pros The software is easy to use and has a good email and template editor. Delivery metrics seem good and the software support is usually very quick to respond to any queries. Cons We have to purge lists that are often used after a years worth of sends due to either database design oversight or the software not having a purge, or archive function. We automate a lot of emails through the API so this could be a issue that few users come across. Switched from [Spotler Mail+](https://www.capterra.com/p/168304/SpotlerMail/) Pure dumped support for our bespoke perpetual license and left us with no option than to go elsewhere.

Pros It is user friendly. The structure is great, I'm able to find what I need quickly.

It's an effective way of keeping in touch with our clients and prospects. The reports after each mailing make very interesting reading too. Pros The Drag and Drop element. It makes creating our newsletters pretty straightforward. Also, the support team are fantastic at helping me when I get stuck. Cons The Contacts and Groups sections. The design element was pretty easy to master, but I don't always understand the bit where we upload or update contacts. I usually stab around for a while before getting it right!
