### "One of the best out there!"

March 25, 2026

5.0

Great, great design, ease of use, albeit it does require some setting up and maintenance, but once it gets going, you'll love it.

Pros

The best tool out there for email marketing by far and without a shadow of any doubt! Go for it and rely on it!

Cons

Pricing must be the most important thing out there, but if it helps us make money, the it's fully justifiable.

December 11, 2021

5.0

overall I am very happy I am using activecampaign, compared with two other email autoresponders I have used it is userfriendly and offers a lot of options (which I know I am using only a small part of it yet)

Pros

managing my contacts, the easy creation of email automations even without much training I can create complex automations.

Cons

the price going up quickly with more contacts

### "AC from a user's perspective"

July 3, 2020

5.0

I like it. Took a while to really understand everything I wanted to use however.

Pros

The automation is good once you get the hang of it and understand how it all fits together.

Cons

Not enough initial trains or on boarding. Would have been nice to have help getting set up initially.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

Recommended by a friend.

### "ActiveCampaign is a worthy investment for email marketing."

June 15, 2022

5.0

Recommended this software to several of our clients as well.

Pros

Email marketing with ActiveCampaign is relatively straightforward, and relatively easy to learn to use.

Cons

We got flagged for inappropriately using the Unsubscribe link, however we reached out to customer support and got this sorted out. Goes to show that ActiveCampaign protects both its users, and audience base, taking care not to spam audiences with email.

### "Robust"

December 14, 2020

4.0

Pros

Active Campaign provides a lot of customization for email marketing and automation, more than what a person who is just starting out in business needs but has the opportunity to grow with you.

Cons

I haven't come across major issues but I wish there was an auto-save feature. I've lost many emails or email edits due to some connection issue and there is no way to save as you go unless you exit the page.

September 30, 2022

4.0

Pros

Produit simple d'utilisation avec de bonnes fonctionnalités dans l'ensemble

Cons

Le logiciel gagnerait à s'étoffer en fonctionnalités : celles proposées restent basiques et pas assez poussées.

### "My review of AC"

March 14, 2022

4.0

Felice anche se potrei esserlo un po’ di più.

Pros

Intuitivo, veloce, buoni template, ottimi report,

Cons

Prezzo forse un po’ alto per chi ha una piccola attività e peccato per non avere la possibilità di agganciarlo ed utilizzare tutte le funzionalità relative ad un ecommerce nel piano lite di active campaign

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

Perché per alcune caratteristiche preferisco active campaign

### "Love Active Campaign !"

February 11, 2019

5.0

Great - integrates into my sales funnels really well.

Pros

I tried many others, and they were either too expensive, or cheap but not enough functionality. With A/C I get everything I need including CRM which reminds me to phone potential clients and close business!

Cons

Nothing really - love A/C. I guess if I said one thing, it could be a bit cheaper - cheaper always helps !

### "The Best CRM Software"

December 23, 2022

4.0

ActiveCampaign (AC) is primarily used by me for automated email marketing and newsletters. It enables me to automatically nurture our leads and produce sales. Leads are added to ActiveCampaign when they sign up for a lead magnet, and for days to weeks prior to receiving sales emails, they receive nurture emails. After a customer makes a purchase, we continue to nurture them using ActiveCampaign. We keep our customers "warm" by sending them emails over several weeks about what they can expect because our product is a test that requires time to produce results.

Pros

It can accomplish my needs and much more. Even some of the features I don't think I'll ever use. Support is also fantastic if I need it.

Cons

It's hard to use it if you don't have any experience.

### "Helping me to grow my small business"

July 26, 2020

5.0

When I started with ActiveCampaign, my email list was 1,000 contacts...now I have about 25,000 active contacts. I find the support to be good, and when I need help to figure something out, like a more complex automation that I want to set up, they help me quickly.

Pros

Active Campaign is easy to setup and get going, and yet, it has all the features I need for long term growth. Tagging, automations, campaigns are all pretty simple to use.

Cons

Automations can be a bit tricky to get right, but I don't think that's unique to this software.

### "Really helps us to track leads and manage our sales process!"

May 10, 2022

5.0

We were really struggling to track leads and likely missing out on many opportunities. Active Campaign has changed that and now we have a much better handle on our pipeline.

Pros

How easy it makes us to track our leads and keep an eye on sales progression.

Cons

Nothing that I can think of - it has everything we've needed so far.

### "Active Campaign is the what keeps our business alive"

November 24, 2021

5.0

Pros

Active campaign is extremely adaptable and customizable for any business. We never had a CRM before and now I don’t know how we ran our business before active campaign. Make the investment and you will see it pay off.

Cons

I am not a huge fan of how the custom fields translate from contacts to deals. There’s a lot of work around necessary but it does work

### "Perfect for Small Teams!"

August 31, 2020

5.0

Pros

I love the tracking features. They're extremely helpful for our sales team, as well as our support team. Our sales team can use it to track engaged prospect's activities and follow up with them when they're the most likely to close. The support team can use these same metrics to reengage with current customers to reduce churn.

Cons

I haven't found a scenario that the automation feature within ActiveCampaign can't handle. If you're willing to put in the time on the front end, the functionality is limitless.

### "One of the best options if not the best"

January 25, 2021

4.0

Pros

The level of automation and customer experience is awesome

Cons

The pricing. Double the price for having more than 500 subscribers seems a bit too much.

### "It's easier than it should be!"

July 18, 2021

5.0

Pros

It goes without saying that AC is very intuitive to get set up. Even if you get stuck somewhere, there are tons of step-by-step videos to get you back on track. If you have some more advanced questions, or need a walk-through, the support staff has been stellar and professional. They've never let me down!

Cons

I wish I got started sooner! For years, I muddled around piecing other solutions together like duct tape. Not fun. Now I do everything inside Active Campaign!

### "Surprised by affordability, industry leading app, easy to use"

November 30, 2018

5.0

ActiveCampaign has everything, and I'm not having to workaround missing features. Not every process is as slick as I would like, but that happens with more powerful apps. But I haven't had to wonder whether ActiveCampaign can do anything, because the answer is that it can. Highly recommended. It's worth spending a few bucks more on a system that is here for the long haul and has everything most businesses will need for email marketing.

Pros

I love that ActiveCampaign is fully fleshed out. I use a lot of smaller apps, and there are usually features missing. But I recently started using ActiveCampaign for email automation and campaigns, and it just has everything. And the cost for the core functionality is actually more affordable than I thought it would be. ActiveCampaign is widely known as one of the best email marketing applications, and it is.

Cons

I wish there was a smaller plan for those wanting the full-sized CRM. Right now, the starting price for those wanting the full CRM is a plan with 25 users. I just need a couple. So the price for jumping up to that is a bit steep for a small business.

### "Fácil incluso para personas 0 de marketing"

February 14, 2023

5.0

Tiene además la opción de personalizar tus campañas, pues dispone de un montón de plantillas que modificar a tu gusto con colores, formas, letras... Francamente para personas que como yo, nos introducimos en en tema de email marketing, una vez pasas el primer paso de conocer la plataforma (recomiendo ir abriendo secciones para familiarizarte), puedes ir construyendo fácilmente tus campañas de forma amena, fácil, rápida y por supuesto con infinidad de soportes y facilidades que encuentras en la plataforma.

Pros

La automatización del marketing, para mi que coordino mi empresa y me faltan horas, es ideal poder escribir un solo mail y lanzarlo a diferentes grupos de personas según la lista de contactos que elija y que ya te preparan des de la plataforma.

Cons

Al principio que todo es nuevo, es como mucha infirmación que asimilar. Hay varias pestañas que te direccionan a diferentes lugares. Al ir avanzando con el paso a paso, te das cuenta de que en verdad es muy intuitivo y que todo está ordenado por categorias. Además el soporte al cliente está ahí para solucionarte cualquier duda.

### "The best ESP out there."

April 15, 2019

5.0

Pros

We've used a lot of different email service providers and ActiveCampaign is by far the best one. It's customizable, easy to learn and it can grow with us as we grow.

Cons

I wish there was an easier way to understand some of the lingo. For example, what is a deal? It means something different on each platform, so a hover with a pop up would be helpful.

February 9, 2022

It was recommended to me and after trying out so many different platforms, I found it to be the best value

Pros

I appreciate all the well-thought out tutorials and the easy framework to just get set-up and go.

Cons

Not being able to embed video; there are a few small features that I find not intuitive

March 22, 2021

4.0

Pros

Great features. Easy to implement. Easy to use.

Cons

I have been a customer and user for over 4 years. Two years ago they stopped paying my reseller commission and I have had dozens and dozens of emails with them about this. I always get the run-around and the "we will be back to you shortly" email. Con artists.

### "Si vous deviez recommander un outil d'automatisation du marketing pour les petites entreprises"

December 26, 2020

5.0

Pros

AC offre la meilleure combinaison de possibilités, fonctionnalités, d'expérience utilisateur, facilité d'utilisation, et de prix est abordable !

Cons

Dans certaines situations, vous pouvez vouloir un outil au niveau de l'entreprise, par exemple, Salesforce qui peut offrir plus d'options et couvrir plus de lignes de produits réels. Je pense que c'est très situationnel. Mais pour le marketing par courrier électronique et l'automatisation du marketing pour les petites et moyennes entreprises. AC est presque toujours plus souhaitable que d'autres plateformes considérées, par exemple, plus d'opportunités offertes que MailChimp, meilleur que le terrible système qu'est ConstantContact, etc..

### "Great product. Great value for money."

September 2, 2020

5.0

Overall, positive but I'm seeing a shift from their small business base to larger scale businesses.

Pros

It integrates very well with other, best of breed services.

Cons

If you're looking for a CRM, this may not be the solution. There are better ones out there that integrate very well with ActiveCampaign.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

Better value for money.
