AllProWebTools vs. Marigold Engage

It works very well for my cooking business.

Message Studio/Selligent is great for reliably sending high volumes of both manual and automated email. The intuitive user interface promotes fast turnaround times. Aside from some data integration issues, it's the best email service provider I've used for sending large volumes of email.

• The CRM holds all of my contacts and it is already integrated with all of my other tools.
• The Email Management system is already integrated with all of my other tools. This means that I do not have to download CSVs and upload them to a separate email program everytime I want to send out an email blast.
• I can take payments in the same system that has my email marketing and CRM. This means that I can create tags and send different email campaigns depending on if I have received payment or not.
• The website hosting means that I can use the same software to update my blog and gallery of food pictures.
• I can sell tickets to my cooking classes from the same software that manages everything else that I do in my business.
• I use the task manager that is built in to remind me of things I need to do. I really like that it is tied into my CRM so I can tag tasks to specific clients.
• The built in timecard system allows me to "clock in" to whatever client that I am working on so that my time and hourly rate are automatically calculated for me. My invoices are sent automatically on the first of each month.

• StrongMail does open and click tracking very well. The detailed level of data they provide is exceptional.
• StrongMail does failure data and bounce codes extremely well. The granularity of the information is invaluable to our business and used by us every day.
• StrongMail's Message Studio EAS is a widely user friendly platform for technical and non-technical users alike.

I used to use Microsoft Excel to organize my business - but it got pretty crazy pretty fast.

We did not evaluate other products exactly. We upgraded from an inferior production to StrongMail based on demos and other people's reviews.
