    It is perfect for artists and content creators. It is perfect for service based providers who want to house their potential leads. Entry level entrepreneurs can also benefit. It is not an all in one type of platform, but it is useful for list building and setting up automation. If you have less than 1K subscribers, this is the route to go until you need to use automation. Then, just feel free to upgrade.

    Appropriate for large organizations who want customization in their emails. The tool - while intuitive if you have previous background - is hefty and large in scope of capabilities. It's great for organizations who have multiple users and shows the name of person who last made changes. The reporting is really good - but may be a bit overwhelming for organizations who don't need a lot of detailed information

    Pros
    ConvertKit
    • Literally unlimited templates for designing the Email campaigns
    • Launching a landing page to capture leads (emails) quickly
    • Analytics to track almost everything including delivery rates gives the ability to optimise next/future campaigns accordingly
    • Newly launched journey or drip email campaigns is great as well

    • The support we receive is very good.
    • The reporting feature is good - a lot of detailed information.

    Cons
    ConvertKit
    • I think the dashboard could benefit form allowing more customization
    • The way you format email templates is pretty limited
    • The saved footer options seems glitchy. I can never get it to work right.

    • The tool could be improved to "remember" where you last left off (specific user). Having to constantly retrace steps if you get logged out is annoying.
    • Hitting the "back" arrow sends you back to a main section, when it should send you back to where you previously were.
    • It would be nice to see performance reports available within the campaign itself, as well as within the reporting section.
    • Ability to NOT be able to change anything in a campaign after it has launched. This has happened multiple times. We usually copy a previous campaign to start a new one but often, we end up changing content on the version we are copying from -- this is very annoying and dangerous.

    Can be summed up in three words that 'It just Works'. Crafted for creators and artists in mind, it offers all they need for start building up list. Free tier is really a good move to test out stuff. I am staying with them considering their good email delivery and simple interface and easy integration with our website software. WYSIYG Editor, Standard reporting but not deep level analytics gives all the basic tools needed to support the business.

    The other products I have used are not available on TrustRadius. I used ConvertKit before I used these other products because I need an all in one platform.

    While both Epsilon Agility Harmony and Oracle Responsys are great for larger organizations that send a lot of emails, I think Epsilon Agility Harmony is more robust than Responsys and is easier to use. It is significantly more complex than HubSpot and requires previous knowledge of using an email tool that has content blocks and or dynamic content.

    • Increased email production = more communication to customers.
    • Better reporting = determine areas for improvement or scale up efforts.
    • Working on getting our triggered emails optimized - there's a great opportunity for this with this tool.
