### "Greate Value"

January 22, 2021

5.0

Terrific experience with our Customer Support team. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\], our on boarding coach did a fantastic job of understanding our needs and making sure that we knew how to address those needs.

Pros

The cost vs features are a great value. Easy and super supportive on boarding process. Checked all the boxes we were looking for in terms of email marketing and customer tracking.

Cons

The CRM has not shown to be an asset for us, it is not really geared towards the type of business we typically take part in.

### "Easy to manage automations"

July 25, 2019

5.0

I started using ActiveCampaign last year because a client was using it. After that, it was hard to use anything else! I switched another client over and plan on moving my own list over to AC by the end of the quarter.

Pros

Lots of other softwares have the "tagging" capability, but not all others have perfected it. My favorite thing about ActiveCampaign is the visual way to set up automations. In marketing, it's so important to be able to customize the email nurturing sequences you send out, and ActiveCampaign makes it so incredibly easy to do! Their templates are a useful way to get started and building emails is easy.

Cons

I wish reporting were a bit more intuitive. You've got to do a bunch of different clicks to drill down to get a report you need. I'm still not sure I've got it 100% figured out.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

Started with Drip and hated it. ActiveCampaign was so much easier to use!

### "Easy to use & powerful "

November 21, 2020

4.0

Overall, ActiveCampaign is a great product. Nice and simple UX great feature set, plenty of integrations, vast training and support documentation library, friendly team.

Pros

We migrated to ActiveCampaign from another tool. The AC team took care of most of the migration, it was quick, went smoothly, and reduced the pressure on our team. The features they offer work very well, the software is reliable, and they are still improving it.

Cons

Their are occasional glitches, and sometimes things are not where you would expect to find them. Email messaging and automation related windows open quiet slowly. Support sometimes takes a bit too long to reply.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

Activecampaign was much more affordable than Pardot or HubSpot and the feature set and user interface looked better than Autopilot's.

### "Easy to use marketing automation tool"

October 31, 2019

4.0

Overall, ActiveCampaign is a great tool if you're ready to get started with Marketing Automation for your Small/Med sized business.

Pros

ActiveCampaign is an easy to use Marketing Automation tool for those used to working with such tools. I really like the visual builder and this type of campaign flow creator put this way above more expensive tools that don't have it.

Cons

So far I have discovered that a few connections (e.g Salesforce) are not built out as they should be and so they fail.

Overall we have had a really good experience with the product and are very happy which is why we have stuck with it for over a year now

Cons

Some of the function shave glitches that we needed to work through or start all over because things werent working as usual or expected

### "ActiveCampaign is worth the money!"

September 22, 2020

5.0

Pros

The automations have been amazing. Every time we receive a customer order we have a whole system set up of automatic emails and tasks so that everything gets sorted neatly. This has saved us hundreds of hours of manual labor.

Cons

It took a little bit of getting used to - is has so many features that obviously learning how to use them takes time. But, it is worth the learning curve!

August 27, 2019

4.0

Pros

ActiveCampaign has great delivery rates. We also love the automation tools and integrations. It makes our lives so much easier and saves a ton of time.

Cons

The software sometimes has some random errors or is slow. We'd also love some more bells and whistles, like being able to schedule exports and reports.

### "Easy and Effective"

September 20, 2020

5.0

It was easy to start using, I didn’t need to hire someone to do it for me, and I can see the immediate results of my efforts.

Pros

My open rates skyrocketed because I actually used the system REGULARLY! It didn’t take a ton of onboarding to understand, and it helped me intuitively organize my leads.

Cons

I wish the price were a little lower... but it cannot be beat, as far as literally everything else.

November 6, 2021

5.0

Pros

I like the automations best and the ability to re engage with inactive subscribers. I also really like the availability of one of the techs \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] who has been dedicated to helping me optimize the platform.

Cons

I don’t like that I cannot bulk import contacts or that I’ve gotten my account put on hold a variety of times without clear explanation.

Pros

Ability to design great email ads, retargeting based on clicks, opens, etc. marketing automation based on certain pages or links clicked on, very user friendly CRM, Reporting on all services within the software.

CRM could be better but it's still user friendly

### "Active Campaign, a good choice for an autoresponder with good deliverability."

May 13, 2020

5.0

I really like it after having used it every day for some months now. I have switched from other software and focusing on this. So it's got a big thumbs up from someone who has tested over 7-8 different others.

Pros

The emails are sent, they get delivered, and I see stats very easily. Active Campaign is delivering on most of what I need. Segmentation, easy funnel overview, resend options.

Cons

When I have sent a campaign, I can click re-send to people who has not opened this campaign. When I do that I can change the subject line, which is good. But a greater option would be to even be able to edit the email body as well. Thanks

### "Plug and play platform for email campaign"

March 24, 2022

4.0

Pros

The engineer team was able to offload the build of email campaigns by only submitting contact information to Active Campaign through the API, the marketing was able to build email campaigns on their own removing the overhead of syncing teams

Cons

The main issue is that it is not the industry standard and most collaborators want to use Salesforce instead making onboarding new collaborators slower

### "Easy for this solopreneur"

December 29, 2020

5.0

I needed some hands on help making sure I was making the right decision for my business and also with an integration once getting started...\[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] at customer service were prompt and very supportive - they listened to my questions and needs and provided specific support.

Pros

I am getting back in business on my own after taking a year off...I wanted something that had plenty of functionality but that I didn't need someone to set up for me. ActiveCampaign is proving to do just that!

Cons

I would have loved if there was a scheduling feature, however after showing around I do know that is generally separate or comes with higher ticket plans.

### "The perfect all in one marketing software - But why i do not use it anymore"

April 10, 2018

2.0

Pros

ActiveCampaign has probably the most intuitive and understandable visual automation composer! It is just perfect! The support was friendly and fast but not so helpful.

Cons

The main reason I switch to another software is that my email base constantly growing and their servers become slower. There was a dependency between the number of contacts I had and the speed of the application. I had 23000 contacts and with that number building, an automation with the visual composer was a great experience for my nerves. On every single click, I had to wait for about a minute. The combination of exponentially increasing prices based on the number of contacts pushes me to find an alternative.

March 17, 2021

5.0

Have been learning so much of marketing, user experience, sales, community, at the same time I give a better experience to my community. It has been an amazing journey.

Pros

Being able to personalize your costumer/community experience takes engagement to the next level. Giving them the opprotunity to hear from you as often as the want/need

Cons

It is taking me some training to be able to use more features each time, however ActiveCampaign has an amazing training team and resources. It is all worth it!!

### "Great in comparision, but..."

March 4, 2021

4.0

Pros

Active Campaign is easy to setup and use. Very intuitive. The customer service is fast, amazing, courteous -- overall it can't be beat. I love all the educational opportunities the company provides to help you get acclimated to learn their product and services but also marketing in general. I've learned a lot from reading their blog and attending free webinars that they host. It also integrates with all of the other apps I use with no problems at all.

Cons

Their sales pages and shopping cart experiences are not the best compared to some others I've used. The sales page I created was not very professional looking at all. The templates are limited and the overall aesthetic is not very detailed. The price is a bit high for the small list that I have. There are cheaper alternatives, but they may not have all the tracking features.
