    APSIS International AB
    Works well, relatively easy to use - but lacks some up-to-date and modern features as well as look and feel. The support provided is OK but not world class. It is too bad as APSIS as a company is quite good at inspiring and providing insights into trends in email marketing.

    ClickDimensions is great for SMB companies looking for an easy to use, robust platform especially in situations where there are only a few people within the Marketing Department.

    Pros
    APSIS International AB
    • We have a pre-designed template and pre-build elements and thus it is quite easy to compose nice looking newsletters.
    • Doing split-tests on subject, clicks etc. is quite easy and requires no tech help.
    • Imporing new contacts and adding to the list is straight forward.

    • The nurture campaign builder was great. Easy to use and to follow along with.
    • The drop and drag editor was easy to use and you could start using it with no training.
    • I always like when a service offers a certification for their product. ClickDimensions training was easy to follow, gave good content/tips/tricks and really helped me learn the platform.

    Cons
    APSIS International AB
    • The user interface is not good. Too much scrolling and too many menues to navigate. Half of the pages are updated to a "new" look with the rest still being the (really) old design. This badly needs a make-over.
    • There is no one-click "send reminder to those who did not open". To send reminders, it is nescessary to build a filter a do a new send using the filter. Such a simple and often repeated task should be automated.
    • It is not possible to add a "Why did you leave us?"-page for opt-outs... Really misses this.
    • The statistics are too limited and to difficult to use - mostly due to the UI design as described above.

    • Creating lists based on customer email behaviour was technically possible, but in practise nearly impossible
    • Managing customer preferences and subscriptions felt extremely convoluted
    • Interfaces generally not intuitive
    • Reporting was not in the class of competitors
    • Deliverability - seems like in onboarding basic things weren't checked off. We really needed a platform expert to implement.

    I see no reason for us to deprecate use at this point. It is important for us as a business to maintain our partnership with them and keep on the pulse of leading technology. ClickDimensions is a marketplace leader for the world of marketing automation, and in coordination with CRM, it's all the more relevant.

    I want to stay neutral. It's not that this product doesn't have appealing features or capabilities, it's that they aren't consistent and stable. So you lose data or your data is not accurate. Or some connection fails and the workflow doesn't trigger as it is supposed to, or the visits or clicks or other metrics contain bad data one month, then the next they're back to normal. This company needs to focus on getting their core product right and not on new features.

    You submit a ticket and they will always come back asking for more information. So the next time you try to be proactive and add that information to the original ticket, but then they come back and ask for something else. It gets to the point where you have to believe it is a stall tactic. You ask for more detail into their processes and you get the runaround. 9 times out of ten they will point the finger at Dynamics 365 as the culprit. It is like pulling teeth to get to Tier 2 support and then the questions start all over again, even if you send screenshots.

    MailChimp offers more flexibilty but also seems a bit more complicated to use. We did not use it long enough to really get an idea of the positive and negative.

    Clickdimensions is severely impeded by its integration into Dynamics CRM. Consequently it lacks the Intuitiveness of HubSpot, and the straightforward usability of MailChimp. It is a perfect system if you want to exist entirely within Dynamics, but it requires a high degree of expertise in Dynamics to get maximum value out of it. We're currently migrating to HubSpot, and while the initial integration is proving challenging, I already sense we will be able to deliver a lot more of our marketing goals much more easily, and see an ROI.

    Return on Investment
    APSIS International AB
    • We are still trying to figure out how to use this medium for sales. We have had some success with Black Monday sales, but in general we do not have much response to our emails.
    • We have increases our visibility with our customers by making sure to land in their mailbox regulary with nice looking messages.
