Likelihood to Recommend Bananatag is very well suited to creating messages that are going to be used on a regular basis but don't require much in the way of changing or amending. It is also a very handy platform to track sending emails and the watermarking technology is very handy. As far as range of designs compared to something like
Mailchimp it doesn't compare well.

Read full review Pros Easy to use and install, particularly with Gmail for business. It has a simple feedback system, if a client reads an email, you get an emailed read receipt telling you the time of them doing so. It runs in the background, is virtually undetectable and will not hinder any communication in the slightest. Read full review This product gives me the liberty to very easily and freely navigate all things on my own, which does not require many skills to start working. This product gives us the leverage of creating our own tailored and personalized templates for our teams in just a matter of minutes. This program is so automated that it performs everything on its own from LinkedIn to email search, to even booking meetings. I found the onboarding process pretty great and efficient. I am really happy with the overall customer support. They are some of the nicest people I have met who are there to willingly help me at any time of need and problem. Their usability is also hands down very good. However, I find their user interface to be slightly less user-friendly, so there is some degree of scope in the improvement of their user intuitiveness and user-friendliness.

You cannot interrelate Reply with other software in a simple way. Zapier is required and even then it’s not perfect. Similar to syncing, there’s no way to export results of particular campaigns. This is awful. If I send out a campaign to a group, I’d like to export the results to enter into a CRM since I can’t sync the contacts. One of these features must be added ASAP. Organization. While Reply itself is user-friendly, keeping campaigns and contacts and results organized is not. You cannot organize campaigns or file them away when they are done. Therefore you have to delete campaigns to stay organized and lose results, which you cannot even export. Read full review Support Rating Have not really had many opportunities to use the support function but my experience was limited and a little bit clunky. It was not particularly responsive or helpful in terms of trying to resolve the query I was working on. I think the problem was solved by another member of the team that worked on designing their own template.
Read full review I generally receive a reply in no time at all and found not only the support org. but the sales team to be extremely helpful. Additionally I found a great onboarding process with plenty of resources to consume.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Bananatag is a free-standing application that plugs into your email service provider. As such, you do not need to be logged into another application to see the results or the real-time tracking of emails like you would with other email trackers. The free application is great if you just need to track a few outbound emails, but the paid plans offer a much more robust tracking service that would allow you to get any and all information you could desire from an email being tracked
Read full review These tools are great, but they aren't built for what we use Reply for. Reply is perfect for doing these outbound campaigns at scale, whereas with
ActiveCampaign and
Vitally we were trying to turn the tools into something they are not.
