Likelihood to Recommend 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.

Read full review Pros 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. Read full review Simplicity + power. Drip is one of the quickest platforms to use in terms of setting up simple drip email sequences. Yet it also packs enormous power if you need to do complex automation. Drip's direct integrations with other systems mean you can easily create hyper-personalized communications and anybody can set this up. Drip's Javascript embed is easy to setup and great for helping to build deeper insights into customer behavior as well as triggering automation. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review Possibly more email design templates for "new" users to automation, HTML coding, integrations, webhooks, etc. Any supported integration partners are always good to see. They have expanded in this area, recently. Some sort of WYSIWYG, drag-and-drop email editor, wouldn't hurt. Sometimes, when trying to implement advanced HTML coding to an email template, the code doesn't stick, save or format as "native HTML." Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review Again, this is dependent on the use case. If you are a small- to medium-sized business that doesn't have a sales team, this is likely a great product for you. It is also a good price compared to larger enterprise software. Other software I have used worked better for other companies I worked for, but Drip fits best for my current company.
