I use it as both a contact database as well as an event planner and event evaluator. We're a small group and I needed to leverage limited resources with outside tools beyond Excel. It allows me to keep track and share information with vendors that I'm using on the logistics side.
- It's a simple tool without all the bells and whistles. It's intuitive and allows me to use it without crawling through manuals and contacting the help desk.
- The templates are clean and well done. In many cases, there are suggestions that I've not considered but make me go "duh" as a new piece of data that I should be gathering from customers
- Very cost effective and no annual contracts.
- The on boarding could be better done. Products like TurboTax have both data entry and "questionnaire" mode. I would like to see more guidance
- A list of sample projects (e.g. event planning or email campaign) with all the pieces profiled as suggestions would be helpful
- Easy on boarding allowed me to be productive on the first project
- Professional templates with "hints" helped make sure I covered all the bases
- We'll be running larger and larger campaigns soon. Too early to see what the ROI is but the "I" is relatively small so I suspect we're already positive.

I've used Salesforce (not Pardot) in the past. Hate it due to the sheer complexity of the product. I looked at Marketo and HubSpot and we weren't open to signing a year-long contract for a product that we didn't know well. Much better than cobbling together email, excel, Survey Monkey, etc.

As a communications department we are using this for communications automation rather than traditional marketing automation. 7Sheep really works for us, not just for e-mail marketing (which is fantastically simple) but we also use the integrated forms with events, feedback forms and surveys. We enjoy the mini-sites and built in templates a lot as well. We use the automation/triggers not just for drip campaigns but also for match triggers.
- Their support is fantastic - even helping me think through the logic of my campaigns with their concierge service and offering advice on how to save time. Their new online manual is excellent too. Very clearly written.
- The flexibility of the 7Sheep form builder allows me not only to automate a lot of outbound marketing but I am also consolidating a lot of my communications activities in one place. This is great when handling a diverse portfolio of campaigns.
- Being able to integrate our forms within our own website wipes out the need to create standalone landing pages: we save a lot of time and keep an integration and overview with this. Love it. (Our client feedback scores have gone up since we used 7Sheep as well.)
- I know that they are working on a simpler way to send a test e-mail to yourself. This will streamline my activities as well and I look forward to that system change (which was suggested by a client. I have also suggested improvements which have been implemented.)
- I miss an easy unsubscribe feature (like you get in MailChimp). Overall, 7Sheep's system is more flexible (good) but that does make it more complex to split up (not so good).
- Setting up the SPF record in our DNS system was flexible and easy but for DKIM integration we had to contact the 7Sheep support. They do not check or show the necessary records in the tool. Customer service was great, though, so not a very big problem, just a bit of a nuisance.
- I was previously part of a survey with 7Sheep and results showed that we were saving 20 mins per participant per event we held, a working week for an event of 100 people.
- Automating our operational logic with the admin triggers in 7Sheep means there is no time lag between tasks and teams, certainly greater efficiency.
- Tracking engagement on our site and with our outbound campaigns means better and faster reporting and enables us to report on impact in a more quantifiable way. (On the human side, my team members get positive feedback from our target audiences which is very motivating. It is nice to see data backed up by people.)

It offers automated marketing with an integrated communications approach which enables my entire department to use the tool for a wide range of tasks. As a non-profit we don't need a traditional enabler for a sales tool but we do need the marketing, awareness raising and communications tools which we get with 7Sheep. For the number of contacts that we deal with, and as a non-profit, the fixed monthly cost is affordable even with the extra services we asked for.

Our organization, which includes offices in 5 different countries, uses 7Sheep on a daily basis. We use 7Sheep as a contact database, as an event registration tool, for sending out newsletters, for managing lists and segmenting, and we use it for reporting. I have used it most often when preparing for events.
- When preparing an event, 7Sheep takes care of pretty much everything you need to select, inform, and register participants, as well as prepare materials for the events, such as name badges and signature lists.
- We also use 7Sheep for reporting on communications activities.
- 7Sheep allows you to build simple or complex forms and questionnaires which we use both for events and independent surveys.
- The drag and drop HTML editor makes things look good without a lot of extra effort.
- It would be useful if some standard email templates were available.
- They could find a way to make the form questions easier/quicker to reorder.
- I would like to be able to change user roles so that only certain people could see certain contact lists.
- 7Sheep has definitely had a positive impact on our organizational objectives. Thanks to the event registration tool, our event preparation and implementation runs a lot more smoothly.
- By allowing us to share a contact database across several offices, we save a lot of time. No more sending Excel files full of contacts from one office to the other.
- Being able to see how people respond to our mailings (for example, a periodic newsletter we send out electronically) gives us the opportunity to make changes in order to better engage our audience. Generally, it's a great tool for reporting.
- By allowing us to export data about participants at our events (for example, based on what country they come from) we can quickly and easily identify which parts of our target group we are reaching and which parts we are missing.

I've used MailChimp before and I liked their product as well, however, data protection is key in our organization. As we are working in multiple countries, some of which have very strict data protection laws, and it was important that we kept the data stored on servers in Europe. MailChimp's servers are in the US, as is the case for many other similar companies. That alone was a major reason for us to go with 7Sheep, which is a European company that keeps all data stored on servers in Europe.

Project managers use this tool most. Since we organise events across Europe, we often use 7sheep as an event registration tool. This allows us to send out automated mailings to participants when they are accepted or rejected from an event and even include surveys about what topics should be covered in the event invitation. While most of our events are in English, 7sheep allows you to create events in multiple languages. Also, you can very easily gather statistics about participants at an event and export information from the system to excel or word templates (for signature lists, name badges, etc.).
