Cheetah Digital vs. CodeTwo Email Signatures 365

I think CheetahMail, being one of the main ESPs in the market, is a quality choice. However, I would suggest that it's really only valuable for a bit larger of an organization, generally having staff of 100+ and revenues in tens of millions -- this is mainly to justify the amount of investment required, so may be cost-prohibitive to some. You also need to make sure that you understand the entire "level of support" you will gain through your specific contract.... the key is understanding what types of resources are within your organization (who's doing the coding? who comes up with the next campaign? What's the overall strategy?) Depending on these questions and resources, may help determine your final needs from a services point of view. CheetahMail can provide a wealth of various services specific to needs (and changes over time as your business changes), but a clear understanding of what you have before you bring them on will really help getting up and running quickly. Also be sure to truly understand the costs for the initial integrations, setups, IP senders, etc.

As an MSP, we can have our creative team create one signature (or many) to deploy to a client, which gives them a consistent message and helps them look more professional than a business of their size might otherwise be able to. The integration with Microsoft 365 is simple to set up.

• Internal management - This is a great web-based tool that allows our users to see what emails go to whom.
• Organization - Many layers of organization for templates since there are many types of remarketing emails that we send out.
• Historical Records - CheetahMail sends us the raw text files of all email actions so we can upload them to our database.

• Uniform Signatures: CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 allows administrators to create and manage email signatures centrally, ensuring all employees have consistent and professional signatures across their entire organization.
• Automated Disclaimers: Automatically appends legal disclaimers and compliance-related information to all outgoing emails, which is crucial for industries with strict regulatory requirements.
• Promotional Banners: Allows the inclusion of promotional banners, links to recent blog posts, or company news in email signatures, turning every email into a marketing opportunity.

• The organization of CheetahMail could at times be better, as you create more and more mailings, they just pile up in a long list. It would be useful to be able to create folders to store specific mailings in. (ex. editorial, newsletters, marketing, etc.)

• I would absolutely love to see the introduction of being able to force a branding format (Font, size etc) across our email real estate, this was a feature moons ago but would love to see this come back especially when Microsoft can kill all this for you at the drop of a hat....erm Aptos makes me sad!
• Easier to navigate training and how to videos to allow you to work out how to make changes and be creative yourself more
• I genuinely cant think of another point here!

As I have begun exploring competitors, I've come to realize that every competitor offers so much more functionality and integration than CheetahMail does. When we first signed our contract, CheetahMail was much more innovative and at the forefront of email. Since being bought out by Experian, we've seen a huge decline in service and innovation. They have laid off much of their staff and moved their account representatives to Costa Rica. They also heavily rely on on third parties which you will have to pay large amounts of money for while other Email Service Providers have integrated new technologies into their platform. You will get more for your money going to a different email service such as Responsys, Silverpop, Listrak and the like,

The solution is pretty much set-and-forget. It does what it needs to do, nothing more, nothing less, and it does it very well.

CheetahMail has a high learning curve to master and requires a lot of backend work with tech teams to set up. Navigation is not the best and everything that should be automated is still extremely manual.

As already described, the set-up process is kept totally simple. This makes setup quick even for untrained administrators. If anything is unclear, you can find all the information you need on the manufacturer's website. As access and configuration are carried out via the web browser, adjustments can be made from any end device. Whether on the move, in the office or at home.

We have not witnessed any downtime so far ...

There are no performance issues related

I've been very satisfied with the support given by Cheetah, they are always asking and looking for areas where they can help you improve upon your business. They are very knowledgeable and are able to quickly find any answer you are looking for.

No problems but we had a couple of questions about functionality or edge use cases and anytime I contacted CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 support I was absolutely happy with their responses. Very helpful, polite and smart people are working over at CodeTwo Email Signatures 365 support. I would suggest other companies to take note on CodeTwo Email Signatures 365's quality of support and service.

It is important to make sure Active Directory is correctly populated and that content is standardized, eg telephone number formats.

I believe Cheetah DMS is a bit more complete and a lot more complex to use than Mailchimp. Mailchimp was born as a mail marketing service while Cheetah has always worked across the whole online advertising spectrum making it a better solution for clients that need a certain level of service and sophistication.

The Office 365 integration and the email profile management was tighter looking in CodeTwo Email Signatures 365, which is why we selected them over the competitors. I also liked the ability to use logic and variables in the signatures to allow us to be a little more creative in the applications.

The product is very reliable :-)

• Our efficiency has decreased with CheetaMail actually. Too many service calls to find out why something isn't working as expected, account setup questions, issues with PiP, takes too long to get a simple form built, customer service response time, etc...
• Reporting is not very streamlined. This has caused us to take our reporting offline and use a method with better visibility.
