### "Excellent full featured CRM!"

January 20, 2021

5.0

Pros

This software has transformed the way my firm communicates with our clients and prospective clients. The level of automation possible is staggering, and compared to other similar offerings made far easier by the countless automation "recipes" included for free with the software.

Cons

With the number of features, it was hard to know where to start. It's also confusing to know when to use contacts vs deals, and when to use lists vs tags.

### "One of the best CRM softwares"

December 26, 2022

4.0

The waiting time for customer service could be shortened as well as more billing options could be added.

Pros

Among the majority of the softwares Active Campaign is really effective.

Cons

It may seem difficult to use at first, especially if you do not have any experience.

January 21, 2023

5.0

Pros

Very easy to use. The implementation was easier than I thought. Also, the ability to make changes as needed.

Cons

Not that I can think of at this time. I wish I would've taken advantage of all the free training and onboarding made available.

### "Great choice, priced well"

July 27, 2020

5.0

I recommend it to my clients regularly. It's a good entry-point option. It might not be able to compete with something like InfusionSoft/Keap for features and more complicated execution, but my guess is 90% of businesses don't need that level of execution.

Pros

I am not a heavy user of email campaigns and automations, but I have been frustrated with other products. Either they don't have a reasonable price point for the occasional user, or they're overly complicated and have tons of features I don't need. AC is streamlined and priced in a way that makes sense for my purposes, and it was easy to navigate without being an expert in email automation.

Cons

I initially hoped I would be able to build landing pages here, but unless I've missed it, that is not an option. However, I am able to build simple landing pages myself and it just pushed me to go that route. Connecting the form there was easy enough.

July 17, 2022

Pros

The contact import and segmentation is very easy. There are multiple template to email campaigns and can be used to set drip campaigns.

Cons

It means I’ve been able to start a mailing list for group members and send out reminders for sessions as well as starting a newsletter soon

Pros

I love that it’s easy to use. You can send out newsletter or offers

Cons

It’s sometimes hard to find what I need to do but customer service is outstanding if I’m unsure where to find what I want to do they help out in minutes over the chat.

I am able to segment our audience and send them tailored emails. The email builder is easy to use and I have used a lot of the pre-designed templates. The training is fantastic, I am still very much in the learning phase but overall pleased with how much I have achieved in a short space of time.

Pros

I like the automation capabilities and the customer service has been fantastic so far.

Cons

it can feel a little clunky at times, the pages are often slow to load.

### "So easy to use!"

February 4, 2021

5.0

The benefit of using Active Campaign is it takes that extra step out of my hands and goes straight to my customer.

Pros

It was so easy to integrate into my business, and I love using the automations! I can also transfer these automations to my team and they can create from there end using the template.

Cons

If I miss a step, it's hard for me to figure out how to go back and fix it.

December 3, 2020

4.0

great for customer support but not always conclusive. A lot of automation available, need a lot of time to configure and acquire all the knowledge to set all up. the software is incredibly powerful.

Pros

Contact management, automation. All the software is incredibly powerful and combines an e-mail marketing tool with a contact management one. really useful to have a all in one tool.

Cons

I have a lot of problem with an automation and it's almost 2 months that we find a solution. No possibility to search contact who not are in a list.

### "Great for reaching customers"

January 5, 2021

5.0

I met a little while ago when I started in the digital market, without this software it would not be reaching the number of people I reached for a respected client portfolio and the more I use the more experiences and knowledge I discover

Pros

With this software, I can reach customers I would never know in the traditional methods of campaigns with customers

Cons

Once you know the software, it becomes very practical to work with it. contacts are not organized in an organized manner and enables future marketing efforts

### "So good it's the only tool we recommend for our students"

May 15, 2018

5.0

Pros

I'm in the internet marketing world and there are tools for everything and some of them are great, most of them are garbage. ActiveCampaign was so good, and so intuitive to use that it has become the one tool when it comes to email and automations that we recommend our students to use. I'm not particularly a great tech person and even I can use AC with ease. I particularly enjoy that for our students, instead of having to re-create all the steps and automation that they can simply download the automation straight to their account.

Cons

After 6 months, I'm still trying to find a con. My team might have a few, but from my experience it is brialliant.

### "Powerful email marketing automation tool"

March 24, 2018

4.0

Pros

Makes it drop dead simple to create automatons for your emails. I mean, my 10 year old brother can do it. Also, the ability to pass in dynamic fields and conditions into email is gold.

Cons

Not being able to specify our own custom SMTP server was nearly a deal breaker for the team. With Activecampaign, you're stuck using theirs. Also, you can't cc/bcc your crm from automated emails.

### "Recommend Active Campaign"

February 3, 2022

4.0

Their support is very good.

Pros

Affordable and good value for money compared to alternatives in terms of how it can integrate with Salesforce. I like the 'Advanced Search' features with highly filterable values.

Cons

The integration with Salesforce was rather easy to implement but we feel the two-way integration could improve and be more granular. Integration with GoogleSheets could be better.

Don't know how I'd run my business without Active Campaign.

Pros

Active Campaign provides all features that I would want for email campaigns and contact management. My contacts enjoy the very readable format of my messages, which means they get opened more often.

Cons

Occasionally I have email formatting issues, but the customer service team is always available to help me out.

It saves time, it has a good price for what you get and it has a very robust email automation features.

Pros

ActiveCampaing has been an usefull tool in our digital marketing strategy. The emails are getting to the right people, at the rigth time with the rigth messege. becouse we can see patterns of behavior trough the tracking

Cons

The learning curve its kind of long, but in comparasion with other tools that do the same its pretty easy. Altoough it has multiple channels for customer sopport, sometines they take too long in giving you an aswer (specially the live chat). Also, I would like if they had more predesign email templates.

### "Total Beginner - It takes a bit of learning but then adds a lot of value"

August 31, 2020

5.0

I am able to send coherent and cohesive emails to my mailing list and track who is most engaged / least engaged with my content. My emails look professional, and when there are challenges customer support responds immediately to help me.

Pros

I like that I can automate mail sequences, that I can track metrics per campaign, and that it's easy to edit formatting, etc in each email or campaign I send.

Cons

I haven't yet figured out how to best track who writes me in response to a campaign via ActiveCampaign. I believe there are a lot of features that I don't fully understand and don't know what could serve me best. Some more guidance here would be super helpful. I also wish I could create landing pages within ActiveCampaign to connect to my website to make signups even simpler.

### "Excellent automations"

July 26, 2019

5.0

They've made it easy for me to transfer my list and automation. It's easy to use also.

Pros

I switched to Activecampaign after my former email service provider made some changes. I chose Activecampaign based on a recommendation, and I'm glad I did. I have an automation that I wanted to transfer, and the customer service helped me do just that. They also have a ton of training videos and a complimentary 30-minute one-on-one session for any questions. Subscribers are also counted once even if they're on multiple lists.

Cons

The price. It's a bit steep. But I'm hoping I'll take full advantage of that as I'll be making more complex automations and growing my email list. Phone support hours are also not available 24/7, which can be hard since they're in US time, and I'm in Europe.
