Mailshake vs. Sugar Connect

Mailshake is great for cold prospecting and drip email campaigns. I do not think Mailshake is well-suited for hyper-personalized one-to-one emailing.

It is a fantastic and very useful application. It has many customization options, but it does not have the power that a giant company requires.

Incentivized

• It has an email editor which is easy to use.
• Email sequences are comprehensive in their functionality--all the options you would expect from a cold emailing solution
• Campaign and List management are also good

Incentivized

• Makes saving emails in SugarCRM really easy
• Flexible as to which types of records you can save to
• Accurate reporting on opens and clicks
• Easily add new records to SugarCRM from Gmail inbox

Incentivized

• Mailshake works only with Gmail/G Suite accounts.
• The only option for customizing emails is in the CSV file. It would be great if there were a feature in the tool for this.
• Missing starts about the total number of opens of an email (it is only tracked once).

Incentivized

• The payment plan that Collabspot provides does not have many advantages over the free plan.
• The scores do not reflect the true assessment towards clients and candidates.
• Mail templates have an outdated design.

I found it pretty good - we were able to put email templates and campaigns together almost immediately. The reason I gave it an 8 is because if you want to edit those templates, the saving and making sure they were part of the campaigns was a little tricky and not intuitive.

Mailshake support is outstanding, and they provide an excellent knowledge base for its users. If you have any issues, they respond ASAP without delay.

For more advanced email campaigns, I use ActiveCampaign and the email sending provider because it gives more control and options related to the drip rules. Besides that, for simple campaigns that need to be followed up in a great, quick, and simple way, Mailshake is perfect from my point of view.

Very similar. Two different layouts for two totally different systems. Collabspot/Sugar is my primary system, but when I was an SDR, I used HubSpot for prospecting primarily because of email automation. Now that I'm a Territory Manager, I don't use HubSpot much anymore as my time is filled up with partners and clients--I do less "hunting" these days than I did as an SDR. Our company uses SugarCRM and Collabspot is integrated so I use Collabspot almost exclusively now. Right tool for the right job, I guess.
