Gist is a unified marketing, sales, and support platform. It includes live chat, a help desk, knowledge base, email marketing, marketing automation, opt-in forms, and more.
Mailchimp is great but did not offer the chat feature. ActiveCampaign's price point was too high. LiveChat was cool but did not offer the all-in-one platform that Gist gives. I think Gist will catch up to ActiveCampaign in about another year. Mailchimp is just on another level …
I looked at ActiveCampaign and it was great software and has great reviews, but the simple fact is that it just costs so much compared to Gist. I was originally looking at the former, but in the end, Gist won me over. While I was trialing the software of Gist, I must say their …
No two email and customer automation tools are the same. They each have their little advantages so it's hard to compare them all because they all have little strengths and weaknesses. SendinBlue is a bit more visual - both with their visual workflow editor, and their email …
Gist is slightly slower than ActiveCampaign but MUCH easier to use than Mailchimp. Overall, you can't beat the bang for the buck you get with Gist. And its messenger bot is the best I've used, it works on not only our main site but also our subdomains, kicking the competition …

You can do everything you can with AC or Mailchimp (minus dynamic cart recovery for ecom) at a fraction of the cost, and you can do MORE -- better integration with FB ads than Mailchimp, more powerful workflows, unified inboxes, live chat and chatbot, etc. It's just a more …
I have a lifetime deal with Gist so I may be a bit biased, but Gist is quite easy to use and has a free tier so it's worth a serious look compared to the other players on the market. Personal preference does play a big role in your final decision, as feature-wise, Gist has most …
I think GIST can replace Active Campaign fully. They don't serve the same purpose, but for a marketing agency like us, GIST is very useful and I don't miss Active Campaign.
It is more customizable and brings new features not available in other software. Gist is also a new start-up with a new vision and their customer service is just superb. We choose Gist because of the variety of features at an affordable price, tested it, and saw a return on …
