Pros

Contact management is robust and reliable, and provides all the capabilities I was looking for.
Marketing automation takes a little figuring out, but it's easy to learn and easy to use.
Deals are highly customizable and incredibly easy to use. I love that you can use it to create all kinds of workflows, not just sales pipelines.
Training videos and webinars are top notch. I've learned a lot from them and always appreciate the email notifications when a new video/webinar is available.

Cons

I use the ecommerce feature for email template design and there's been a bug where I can't change the colours of the shopping block to match a theme. Which is annoying in of itself and is actually quite critical but beyond that it would be nice if they could either fix it quickly or keep me up to date on the progress of the fix.
It could be a little bit easier to find pricing online.
Support isn't online at all times of the day, which is understandable but definitely would be a nice thing to have.

ActiveCampaign 8.9

Based on 18 answers

For our clients (Course creators, event hosts & managers, business leaders that have existing marketing in place and want to grow past 6 & 7 figures), we highly recommend ActiveCampaign, because:

Broad capabilities - ability to create individual emails to specific segments (the right people) at the right time (predictive sending for the greatest likelihood of conversion) and automated flows so that our clients are generating revenue
Integrations - We run ads for our clients, and ActiveCampaign automatically creates dynamic audiences for our social media platforms so that our ads are going to audiences that have just opened or clicked emails (or that follows up with people who haven't engaged). The number of programs that ActiveCampaign connects to makes the marketing a seamless experience for our clients.
Visualization of data - With the flow builder, you can see where people are in the process, what tags are being applied overall - makes it so much easier to create email marketing solutions for clients.
Reporting - The ability to see specific open, click, and conversion rates in one place.
Outstanding customer support - Having the ActiveCampaign team behind you makes it easy to recommend and use it for clients.

Usability

ActiveCampaign 8.2

Based on 33 answers

ActiveCampaign has been the easiest marketing automation software we have ever used. They provide tips throughout the entire process of anything you are building. Their support team through LIVE CHAT has been extremely fast and helpful. The monthly meetings provided with the enablement team has helped us through several large and urgent needs.

Reliability and Availability

ActiveCampaign 9.1

Based on 4 answers

I haven't experienced application errors or unplanned outages at all. Active Campaign is ultra reliable and I would not be using them if that were the case. Also, the helpful emails they send are welcomed and informative, and present very practical tips and guidance for using the platform. They're always demonstrating new features and I'm thankful for that.

Oh my gosh, Active Campaign's performance gets an A+++ in my book. The pages load quickly and so do the reports. I haven't noticed any slowdowns when it's integrating with other programs and it performs excellently on all levels.

This might be the best part. The chat support lady offered to make a video to help me solve my problem. I worked in customer service for years and I've never done that, lol. So, if they're offering things like that, I can only imagine that they'd be able to handle most any issue you throw at them.

Implementation Rating

ActiveCampaign 8.6

Very satisfied with our implementation in our professional medical practice, allowing us to be on top of client service, and not miss out on crucial information and insights. Marketing is often neglected in professional practices and ActiveCampaign solved this problem with aplomb.

Alternatives Considered

We switched away from both Mailchimp and Insightly because running two apps became unwieldy and the data wasn't very clean, there was a lot of duplicating of work. They are both excellent pieces of software in their own rights however ActiveCampaign does the job of both of them put together and while it's more expensive than both together I'd happily suck up the extra cost to save time and have more accurate data.

Scalability

ActiveCampaign 8.5

Based on 4 answers

My web designer told me about Active Campaign and although I don't recall which platform I had before, I LOVE Active Campaign and its user friendliness. The transition was seamless and I've never had a problem with functionality or server failure.

Active Campaign provides so many features, and makes it easy for non-techies to maneuver around the site with ease. They capture information and put it in an easy-to-read format.

At this point, I don't think I'd ever use any other platform!

Return on Investment

ActiveCampaign saved us thousands of dollars over our previous CRM platform.
We are able to track leads through the sales pipeline, seeing exactly how much our efforts are bringing in.
We are able to provide better customer service by quickly responding to forms completed on our website no matter the time/day.
We can run reports to find areas we may be deficient in marketing or sales, and also see our strengths, which is important to our C Suite.
ActiveCampaign Automations save us a significant amount of time.
