Likelihood to Recommend SendPulse is great if you want to connect with your list on a more personal basis, and making sure that your email reaches your subscriber when it is best for him/her. You can also use the SMS function (though I haven't used it yet). Let's say you have clients and want to send a message to them automatically on their birthday, SendPulse allows you to do that. It allows you to add in specific fields that are relevant to you, in order to customise your messaging as much as you want and need.
Read full review If you have a large or small blog following/audience, this is an excellent tool to help keep readers engaged and on top of your new content releases. You can also utilize this product for automated DRIP campaigns that will, following a schedule you create, notify users at preset intervals to help nurture your leads or existing customers as part of your sales funnel. Even new bloggers with smaller audiences can utilize a tool like this to help generate more consistent web traffic to your content. I am averaging a +16% clickthrough rate regularly on my RSS to push notifications after just a few months of use.
Read full review Pros One of the best features of this software is its user interface. I found it very intuitive. It has sms feature also which is a great add-on to this software. It has live chat support feature. And I find it very helpful when i find any technical problem. Read full review Easy-to-use admin system; even non-technical team members could understand what to do without training. Flexibility of configuration and visual previews of what the alert experience would be like made it easy explain options before implementation Segment system and API gave us enough control to serve notifications in the right language, which was important for our multi-lingual website Read full review Cons I like its Drag and Drop function to design e-mailers but it lacks in some functionalities. Foe example when I write two different contents in a same box I need a line to show separation between my contents in the same box but this feature is unavailable in SendPulse. They should include more fonts. Every product or service needs different kind of fonts to make a right impact on customers. With limited option of fonts it restricts user's creativity. It is good to have templates to give users some idea for designing campaigns but here SendPluse has nothing much to offer. They have very limited number of templates. Read full review I can tell they are based somewhere on the other side of the world, so when it's middle of the day here in the USA, they aren't always very responsive. There have been a couple hiccups with billing issues that mainly stemmed from them not having an internal billing system, but had it outsourced to another company.

Read full review Usability I find that overall SendPulse is very intuitive to use and the support is there to help you out in case you don't find how to do what you wish to do. The drag and drop functionalities make it easy to create the newsletters you want. Every field is explained and small tutorials are included to show you how to create a new template, newsletter, etc. which makes it very easy to use.
Read full review Support Rating Every time I contacted the support team with a question or a problem, they were very fast in replying and helping me out solve it. Usually latest within 10 minutes I would receive a first answer, and the problem would get solved on the same day.
Read full review Their support staff are experts who are beyond helpful! I needed support with a certificate issue, after migrating one of our sites from HTTP to HTTPS, They handled it and helped very effectively, absolutely loved the cooperation. They saved me a lot of time with guiding me over the issues and I didn't needed to search on forums and read technical documentation on my own.
Read full review Implementation Rating When implementing SendPulse, it is a good idea to have a transition phase where you still use both systems, in case anything goes wrong.
Read full review Alternatives Considered For SendPulse's price point, I consider their competition to be the likes of
Mailchimp ,
ConstantContact , etc. While SendPulse rates roughly average across the board in all areas, for businesses looking for the cheapest option (which comes with a lack of features/quality),
ConstantContact beats them. For quality/features/value, I'd say
Mailchimp is the best option for small businesses.

And this software played a major role in doing so. It made brand building very easy among my clients. Read full review More return. In general the people who sign like the notifications and usually return. Organic growth. The list of subscribers increase over time, so is a well worth the investment. It's a bit expensive, so the ROI at the beginning is not the expected because the cost. Read full review ScreenShots
