### "ActiveCampaign Takes Your Email Marketing to the Next Level"

October 6, 2021

5.0

There was admittedly one time where we experienced a significant delay with emails using ActiveCampaign, but support was very quick and helpful. I would wholeheartedly recommend this service to anyone interested in upping their email marketing experience.

Pros

ActiveCampaign's automation features are, hands down, amazing. Coming over from another email marketing system, I was SO impressed with how much more they had to offer. It truly took our emails to the next level!

Cons

There is definitely a learning curve, and it can be frustrating to figure out when you first get started. There are so many options, so many things you can customize, that it can get a bit overwhelming. I would not recommend it for beginners. That said, if you stick with it, it's incredibly powerful.

### "The best tool for email marketing, segmentation and contact management"

June 19, 2020

5.0

The best on the market, as it has advanced marketing, segmentation and targeting options and it's easy for clients (not tech savvy) to use.

Pros

Easy to use, the best value for money. Advanced features that most softwares don't offer unless you pay $$$$

Cons

Email designer is sometimes clunky. There should be an 'undo'/redo' option when designing. More fonts.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

considering Infusionsoft was the best at the time - and the AC was the only one on the market that had advanced tools, like contact scoring, interest tagging etc...there was no better option. Keep up the good work :)

### "Longtime ActiveCampaign user (and fan)"

June 2, 2021

5.0

Pros

I have used ActiveCampaign at several companies (software as a service companies) -- onboarding is a key experience to marketing, customer experience, and the business overall. WE've created multiple onboarding automations with AC's features that allow for granular targeting and dynamic content. and I'm still just scratching the surface of what's possible.

Cons

I think that the reporting could use some improvements to pull actionable insights. Also, have had problems when tracking too many events for a huge list, so sometimes "less is more" is the right approach.

### "Very useful software with reasonable pricing"

August 28, 2020

5.0

Pros

We have used ActiveCampaign to automate many areas of our business. It usually works well and their pricing is reasonable. I have saved a lot of time using this software so far and know that it will help me save even more time as I continue to use it.

Cons

The load speed and some features can be improved. But this is not something that stops you from utilising the software to help your business.

[Keap](https://www.capterra.com/p/76390/Infusionsoft/)

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

I thought ActiveCampaign would be easier to use compared to Infusionsoft. Their pricing being more reasonable with no setup fees also made me lean more towards using ActiveCampaign instead.

### "Easy to use but a bit pricey in the long run"

January 18, 2022

4.0

Pros

When it's your first time to use an email marketing software, Active Campaign is fairly easy to setup and work with. It has a tons of very detailed tutorials that lets you learn your way around the software.

Cons

What I didn't like about the software is the need to upgrade your subscription when the number of people in your list increases and the onset 2-year lock-in period upon sign up. It's quite unreasonable if you ask me.

### "Micro Business Owner Opinion"

November 14, 2022

3.0

At the start, my experience was very good, back when I started using it in 2017. Over the years it became too expensive, with no real benefits for me. As of November 2022, I have decided to part ways with Active Campaign, because I cannot afford it anymore. If you are not on a shoe-string budget like myself, then this would be a fantastic product for you.

Pros

\- Relatively easy to use- Seems like a legacy system that some might like.

Cons

\- Too expensive- Very clunky- Templates are not very nice.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

Seemed better and easier to use.

Configuration is one of the best feature, speed and ease of use one of the best advantage, sending follow-up emails is one of the featured i liked very much

Cons

### "My ActiveCampaign Review"

May 18, 2021

5.0

I love it

Pros

The pricing and ease of use are the two main reasons I love this software. Not to mention great deliverability. It allows you to do everything you need, and more. And it's easy and user friendly. Plus you get a lot out of what you pay.

Cons

It took me a little while to get used to some of the automation processes. But once I got used to how it is set up it makes perfect sense.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

It came highly recommended from many people

### "I will recommend ActiveCampaign over and over again"

January 9, 2022

5.0

I am using ActiveCampaign to automate emails to clients based on their relationship with our brand. It's like having a virtual member on the team

Pros

The major things I like about AC include; - Tech support is second to none - User friendly interface - Fantastic automation tools - Automations and campaigns are very easy to set up - It has cool templates to suit the purpose of my campaigns

Cons

There are two things I don't like about ActiveCampaign; - The reporting is too basic for a start, when advanced reporting is needed one will need to pay more - Price increases as the number of contacts increase; I think it should be fixed regardless of the number of contacts - my opinion though

### "Good platform to manage incoming lead's and form submissions"

November 19, 2022

4.0

Overall, the platform is perfect for form submissions, and being able to see all contacts generated in a list is a great feature. I would recommend to those who need a form on their website and that want a separate form from another platform.

Pros

We use ActiveCampaign to manage lead generations from a form we built on it to get requests for information. The form has great usability and we really like the customizable fields in the forms.

Cons

Some of the fields are not fully customizable. We had an issue once where form submission emails were being sent non-stop due to a glitch, but I believe that was due to user error.

### "Good product for sending newsletters"

March 17, 2021

5.0

Pros

There is a small learning curve, as with any software, but once you get the hang of it and organize your leads/contacts/campaigns, it's very easy to customize and launch newsletters. The program has all features that you'd expect: tracks opens and clicks, number of clicks per contact, allows sending to multiple contact lists, and allows a good overview of campaign performance. I use ActiveCampaign to send weekly or bi-weekly newsletters - and the only difficult part is coming up with content, haha!

Cons

The only feature I'm REALLY disappointed by: I organize my leads into multiple lists, usually based on lead source (e.g. LinkedIn), or time in campaign, or profession, or their status in my pipeline. When I want to change a lead's status (e.g. from "new" to "contacted"), I have to unsubscribe them from one list, and add them to another. Unfortunately, they now feature as "unsubscribed" in the system - which makes it difficult for me to keep track of who unsubscribed by clicking the "unsubscribe" link, and who was simply moved by me to a different list.

December 25, 2022

4.0

We expected to carry out a CRM and simultaneously have the option to send off email showcasing and computerization crusades.Because of Dynamic Mission, we had the option to do this rapidly and cost-successfully.The likelihood to have CRM and Email showcasing exercises coordinated in one device, close by a total Promoting Mechanization framework is a truly remarkable point for our business.

Pros

The versatility of the software and the options given

Cons

You need to have experience in order to use it. Not for beginners

February 5, 2023

4.0

ActiveCampaign is one of the uncommon instruments that brings a ton of usefulness together without overpowering you. There is something else entirely to it that you can find on the air conditioner highlights page. Yet, it begins with the center, which is email endlessly advertising mechanization programming.

Pros

This CRM is very effective and professional looking.

Cons

It is not so much user friendly and calls for experienced people to use it.

### "My ActiveCampaign Review"

August 22, 2022

5.0

I unse ActiveCampaign for my simple Email marketing automation with a welcome sequence. That’s still very little, compared to the possibilities I have with ActiveCampaign. I feel very safe here, because ac will be able to keep up with growing demands.

Pros

As a small business owner, I was searching for a solution for my email-marketing-automation. I compared the most common systems - ActiveCampaign convinced me! It is really intuitive in use.

Cons

I wish there were more design options: more fonts/inclusion of my own fonts, freer design of the layouts etc.

### "Good tool to have"

October 18, 2020

5.0

Even though I signed up in June/July, I've only just started collecting contacts from my landing page. I have not taken any training videos due to lack of time but as I learn how to manipulate AC more I may find more things I can do. I still have to fully explore it.

Pros

I can create different buckets for various campaigns.

Cons

I have to choose the entire audience list in a bucket for a particular retargeting campaign instead of selecting only the ones that I want to target from the given list.

### "The best email marketing automation software - I little difficult to learn at first."

November 3, 2019

5.0

Overall I am really happy with activecampaign. It's helping me converting more subscribers into clients, and automating my business.

Pros

I love how powerful it's to create a really good email marketing automation and flow with the builder. I switched from Aweber and it's just another level! Since then I am converting my list at 4%! that it's huge for my industry.

Cons

At first it's a litle difficult to learn how to use it. And it has a lot of features that can discourage beginners.

### "Solo necesita mejorar el editor"

May 28, 2020

5.0

La estoy explotando poco, la verdad. Tengo un autoresponder y monto lanzamientos propios. Envío la newsletter mensual desde ahí y hago crecer la base de datos. No estoy trabajando muy a tope el email marketing, cosa que debería... Pero todo llegará.

Pros

Muuuy bien las opciones de segmentación al enviar campañas y el montaje de embudos. Tiene muchas opciones y no es especialmente complicado. Se basa en etiquetas y listas, lo cual está genial porque da muchas alternativas.

Cons

Sin duda, el editor de emails. Cuando vas a escribir uno no funciona muy allá y parece bastante arcaico. Es muy raro que una herramienta tan completa tenga ese editor tan flojo.

### "Active is Very Powerful and easy to use"

February 1, 2021

5.0

The bottom line is that we are spending less and getting a more segmented and detail oriented program with many more features than we had been receiving on another e-mail service. I strongly recommend them.

Pros

With Active, you really get excellent hand holding service while switching over to use them. Customer Service clearly cares about your company. But the best part is that the program makes it very easy to glean as much as possible from every e-mail campaign you set up. That allows for powerful automation of segmentation of the e-mail list. I also love how somehow Active "knows" so much about so many of the people who sign up. Often, Active will automatically provide you with a twitter feed or linked in that is connected to the person who subscribes to the list.

Cons

There are a huge amount of templates to choose from when designing a newsletter. Perhaps a bit more hand holding there would be useful.

### "LOVE THIS SYSTEM"

November 9, 2017

5.0

Pros

I recommend this system to ALL of my clients. For the price, it's incredibly affordable for such a robust marketing system. The people that do not like it tend to be the people that have not used it to its full capability. We're learning new things every day with this system. The customer service is great and usually pretty fast to respond. We bought ours through a reseller who has an amazing training program so you can either learn yourself or give the training to your VA to learn. Every person I've turned on to this system, LOVES it. I would say that people who like IS but maybe cannot afford it - check out this system.

### "Active Campaign is a favourite!"

December 8, 2021

5.0

Active Campaign is one of my favourite systems to use and recommend to clients. They are always willing to support you as needed if you need a hand and their capabilities are truly endless when it comes to growing a business.

Pros

Active Campaign has some very in depth triggers in the automations which makes the automation piece highly customizable depending on your clients specific needs. I also think their tagging and segmenting features are setup in a great way that is easy to implement and understand. They also have top notch customer support.

Cons

The most difficult thing I find with Active Campaign is that it's not friendly for users with little to no tech experience. Some of my less techy clients have trouble understanding the system or how to even navigate to view reports, etc.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

Active Campaign stands out because their system is such a clean and professional setup. They also offer many more features than the alternatives.
