### "Good marketing automation alternative"

May 29, 2018

4.0

Pros

Have been using activecampaign along with sfiq. It was worked well for us for driving email campaigns. The best part about the product is really nice and interactive templates, have to say Activecampaign has some of the best email templates.

Cons

Pricing is one area where Activecampaign can improve. Also plugins are required to make it a full functional marketing automation product. Overall its a good product.

### "Worth The Learning Curve"

June 30, 2015

5.0

I gave ease of use 5-stars because it is brilliantly designed and now that I've spent a few days learning how to use it everything seems logical. I'm a novelist who uses AC to manage my reader mailing lists. Active Campaign is far more powerful than what I'm used to with one of their competitors and as such it did take me a little while to pick up on the possibilities because I never considered some of their options to be possible. I've only had one brief customer service interaction and it was handled flawlessly. I will definitely be telling everyone about AC.

### "Awesome Software"

August 29, 2020

4.0

My overall experience with ActiveCampaign has been great.

Pros

ActiveCampaign has a lot great features and functionality. It has a lot of the same features as more expense similar softwares, but is cheaper. More bang for your buck. Also, the support is very responsive.

Cons

What I like least about ActiveCampaign, it takes a bit to understand the lay out, where things are, and how to use them. But once you get to used to it, it's a breeze to navigate the software.

### "Most visual system for Email Marketing Automation Strategy "

May 7, 2018

4.0

I could really understand how email marketing automation works by working with the visual map.

Pros

Email Marketing automation has been tough and time consuming. Active Campaign makes it easy, because it gives me a visual interactive map of every element in my email marketing strategy!

Cons

The lite plan lacks CRM capabilities, such as lead scoring and deal flow which means I have to upgrade!

October 23, 2018

They should keep its pricing more competitive.

Pros

I found it very effective application for sending newsletters to my clients. It gives me accuracy and early responses. Its email design editor is very simple and user friendly. I can create newsletters in very less time.

April 5, 2021

5.0

I'm a new user, only had it for about 3 months. It was easy to get my contacts imported, send out some welcome emails and see open rates right away. You don't have to be a power user to get started.

Pros

Easy to get started, tutorials/help pages are excellent and am enjoying it so far.

Cons

I haven't found any yet, but am still pretty new to the software.

### "Good choice for an email automation campaign "

November 11, 2020

4.0

Happy that I went with ActiveCampaign as my choice for email automation.

Pros

Ease of setting up email automation campaign with already made template that can be easily customized for personal preference. The use of forms is also good for blogging that can be integrated with collecting contacts.

Cons

There is no ability to customize the forms within Active Campaign such as changing the layout size, picture, position of text to where you would want it to be other than editing the html itself. Everything is fixed size. A bit tricky to find exactly what you are looking for as things on the site are layered deep within some other contents.

Reason for choosing ActiveCampaign

Pricing was reasonable and some features that I was looking for was here on ActiveCampaign.

### "A solid email platform "

January 10, 2021

5.0

Overall very positive experience. We use it for one-off emails, emails from us, emails sent on behalf of clients, drip campaigns, etc.

Pros

I like that it's pretty easy to set up drip campaigns to automate outreach and keep in front of customers.

Cons

No major complaints. We use it for all sorts of projects and it's pretty easy to work with. I guess UX could always be improved upon to make it even easier.
