    Mindfire is good when using direct mail pieces. You are able to analyze the web and print pieces together. However, it doesn't allow for good scalability of campaigns. While the templates are decent, you do need some coding knowledge to make these campaigns web compliant.

    I would NEVER recommend Signposts! Signpost's fee is very expensive for a small company like ours, so I had to cancel the service - or at least TRY to. I contacted them the day after they billed our card for another $2,000, and I was told that we were automatically on the hook for another year, with no exceptions and no recourse. Very greedy and desperate; this doesn't seem like the way to keep happy clients.

    • The best feature that I like the most and have been using for some time is their marketing tool. Signpost makes marketing an easy task. It has enhanced our productivity.
    • As I did things manually in the past but now Signpost has made this very much easier for me to just trust their marketing tool to do marketing according to the algorithm.
    • It helps me to have more organic views on the platform and more positive reviews on the newsletter.
    • The automated system asks for reviews from the customer which makes it even more helpful in changing and advancing new things.
    • It also changes our approach to the work and with the automated extremely functional setup it increases our positive reviews which is good for the organization.

    Cons
    MindFireInc
    • The UI is dated and needs to be updated. The ability to delete elements after publishing and going back to edit mode. Better UX needs to be implemented.

    • Provide user a way to cancel their service.
    • Get rid of the very aggressive sales staff.
    • Refund money for unused moths. Do not be so shady!

    Mindfire wasn't my choice. The only reason it is being used is because it correlated with direct mail.

    • The support team is very professional. I had problems while using Signpost in the past and I contacted their support on that matter.
    • They responded very professionally, listen[ed] to each and every problem related to the work, and doing hindrance to the flow of work with the full-fledged solution to the problem.
    • This makes me more confident in using the platform more in depth.
