SAS 360 Plan vs. Smartlead.ai

Smartlead is well suited in many aspects. Thats why we are working on it from past 3-years or so. Running email campaigns can be a challenge because other bulk email providers do support sending email but the accuracy of landing in the inbox no one guarantee. I have used it and based on the experience I am using Smartlead. I have used mailshake, apollo, instantly, salesloft etc. none has given such results compared to Smartlead. When it comes to less appropriate: Smartlead is for sending bulk email, one cannot maintain records on the same. I have to delete the campaigns because it will pile up in the home screen once completed. Also Auto-tagging feature should be there based on the response received from prospect. If we use it as CRM, there are chances it can fail. Since it provides unanimous master inbox- I can not respond to my prospect from the dashboard because other colleagues might see my response. This is a security concern.

It's a good tool and you can figure out your way around it, but overall visibility from a bird's eye view could be better. Oftentimes you have to open up multiple tabs to see different client views

I have used all above platform in my career. Instantly is the nearest one which can compete. relying on Apollo was my biggest mistake over the years in my previous org. Apollo does not give clear picture whether the email is bounced what the health score of my domain. I kept on using the same mailbox and my emails kept on landing in spam. I couldn't understand the reason behind my poor performance until I used Smartlead. All other tools gives fake health score, no AI suggestion on setting up campaigns. Here Smartlead outstand with other tools.
