    HeyReach
    We use it for all of our LinkedIn outbound internally, and it only takes one employee to oversee. We have 5 senders, so something that would have previously taken a lot of coordination and education (writing SOPs, training the rest of the team, overseeing that they follow the process daily/weekly/monthly, etc.) is now handled by one person in a few hours every week. If you compare it to legacy, enterprise tools–it's a no brainer. For a fraction of the cost, you are getting the same (or significantly more) value and features, no complicated annual contract that ties you down. Not to mention that they have incredible customer service and content. I habitually speak with the founding team, have asked for features and then seen them in the product within days/weeks. You can't get that at any of the competitors.

    For businesses requiring advanced email marketing features like sophisticated automation, in-depth analytics, and extensive customization, VerticalResponse might fall short due to its limited featuresVerticalResponse is ideal for small businesses or freelancers who need a simple, straightforward email marketing tool. Its ease of use and basic features make it suitable for those without extensive technical expertise in email marketing

    • I love the ease of list builder because we often times have a lot of data to import. It would be simply impossible without this tool, considering the amount of customer data we have for any one given email.
    • We really enjoy the ease of use of the HTML wizard as well. It helps even a novice be able to make a beautiful and attention grabbing email.
    • The dashboard is functional and easy to find when you need with a quick search.

    Cons
    HeyReach
    • The master inbox could be improved (better hot keys, smoother experience)
    • Probably on the roadmap, but the ability to create sub-sequences

    • The type face is small. Not sure if this is to avoid overwhelming the reader, but I could see this being an issue with vision-impaired people or people who don't see small print well.
    • Sometimes I find it takes multiple clicks to make one simple change. I wish there was a search field at the top of the screen that allowed me to jump directly to a client's entry to update it there.

    Product is easy for both technical and non-technical people to use. A cost effective solution for sending out large number of messages. We can manage unsubscribes by individual accounts, so we can have multiple multiple accounts combined to maximize our buying power on credits. Effective API for sending/receiving data makes tool a valuable asset.

    Usability
    HeyReach
    It is a very good tool especially the way they are improving themselves, as I have been using this platform before they even launched properly, & they are giving the requested features as well. The only thing is that as they scale, they need to have a better customer support team to handle the issues

    I truly love this product. We are moving to an all-in-one system next year and my greatest fear in doing so is how much I will miss this platform. Although we are excited for things ahead, I will always keep Vertical Response in my back pocket incase I don't love the new platform as much

    At Vertical Response the help desk associates are courteous, knowledgeable and helpful. You can tell they enjoy what they do. And clearly, they are well trained because most times, the first point of contact is able to resolve any issue you may have. There have been very few times where an associate has needed to get back to me or escalate me to a supervisor

    Many of the competitors aren't listed in TrustRadius. But there are dozens more. They are either very enterprise or quite new (small challenger companies). HeyReach makes the enterprise options look wildly pricey and unreasonable, and they stand out from the other challengers by their approach, content, and roadmap. I've used so many tools and HeyReach has definitely made its way into our standard rotation.

    In addition to using Vertical Response personally I also manage email marketing for clients that already use Mailchimp, Robly and Constant Contact. While most of these platforms all offer similar features I choose Vertical Response first if the client does not have a platform in place. Typically I am also teaching the client how to use this tool and the Vertical Response visual interface is very easy for me to teach a client how to navigate and create their own campaigns.

    Return on Investment
    HeyReach
    • It is good for ROI if you have multiple accounts to connect as it is very cheap
    • It is bad for ROI if you are looking to connect lesser accounts as there are better tools with same pricing at a smaller scale

    • We were able to blast out promotions our company was having to customers which created an increase in business.
    • By blasting out any service issues, it keeps our customers informed so that they are not wondering what is going on.
    • Allows us to store unsubscribed emails so that we are not constantly pestering people who do not want to be emailed.
