SalesPanda vs. SwiftERM

SalesPanda is great. It's a multifaceted user-friendly platform to find your target market, determine interest, and help drive your market. I've reviewed a LOT of software on this same platform and while I can sing the praises of this all day, it's not much different from the other software that's already readily available. I will say this is great for a mid-size agency, as there's no option to purchase separate components separately, and that can be a bit pricey.

SwiftERM only works on specific ecommerce platforms including Magento, Shopify, Woo Commerce, and OpenCart. It is intended for regular communication with consumers who visit that retailers site more often. so it works well for food and drink, fashion and pet food etc. People selling beds or something which you buy less frequently would get lower returns.

• They offer a free trial – I know this sounds pretty basic, but not all software offers that. Especially in a market saturated with marketing campaign software, this is a HUGE plus.
• SalesPanda offers training through online webinars – there isn't a need to go searching around on YouTube if you don't understand something. Additional plus!
• Their customer support is top-notch. If we ever ran into an issue, we were never on hold for longer than a couple of minutes. Excellent attention to customer care.

• Automatic email marketing
• Predictive analytics
• Publicises our Trustpilot product ratings

• We didn't like that SalesPanda came as an entire package (which can be pricey). It would be nice if you could purchase different parts of it separately.
• There's no A/B testing. This is something others offer that SalesPanda doesn't.
• While customer service is great, their business hours are a little wonky. I'd prefer to have 24/7 customer care rather than 8-5.

• Introduce an SMS version
• Making the reporting system more idiotproof

It is the only system we have able to find in the world that is 100% automatic. There is an element of automation in many email products, but these always require some input, if only setting the distribution time. No other analyses down to individual consumer level. No other system in the world is authorized to send Trustpilot product ratings in outbound emails. This really is superb.

Setting up is a simple plugin. I did my own in three minutes including the registration. As it is automatic, there is no need for training or paying for users, etc. In six years we have never needed any support, but I know there is a team of developers there if that day ever arrives.

Zoho Campaigns is super affordable, but very basic with what you get. SalesPanda is similar, and while that may be appealing to a smaller company, I would say take the leap and spend the extra money. SalesPanda isn't perfect, but it's the best bang for your proverbial buck. Our clients have been very happy with the results.

Mailchimp, DotMailer, Emarsys. But none of these does exactly what SwiftERM does, leaving us in a situation where we now run both SwiftERM and Mailchimp.

• SalesPanda has given us a stable platform to advertise our clients' strengths through its easy-to-use content marketing tool
• They have templates that allow you to market initiatives to help boost productivity (by saving time). Definitely a plus.
• SalesPanda focuses on content and generating leads...we use it to post our clients content to blogs, case studies, etc. Very nice!
