I am committed at the moment.
Rebuilding the automations I have would be a huge time drain.
Plus the cost of learning a new system and the risk to deliverability of porting a 6,000 person list to a new platform.
Also, AC offers everything I need ast a reasonable (but a little high) price.
So, why not a 10?
Because, early 2023, AC dropped a massive 2x price hike on long-term customers.
They knew few would shift, so this feels like a cynical cash grab and left a bad taste,
If they do something like this again, this camel will have a broken back.

I have been using ActiveCampaign for my business for over two years and it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. The platform is very easy to use and has allowed me to automate and optimize my marketing effectively. I have seen a significant increase in lead generation and customer retention thanks to the custom campaigns I've created in ActiveCampaign, plus the tech support is exceptional and they're always willing to help with any questions or issues you may have.

We have been extremely pleased with ActiveCampaign so far. It is easy to use and provides reliable deliverability. A change in pricing may encourage me to change to a different software as our email list grows.

It is easy to use for a person wearing all the hats in the business with little tech expertise. It makes it easy for me to build powerful tools quickly that integrate effectively into the other tools I use for my business regluarly.

For our clients (Course creators, event hosts & managers, business leaders that have existing marketing in place and want to grow past 6 & 7 figures), we highly recommend ActiveCampaign, because:
  • Broad capabilities - ability to create individual emails to specific segments (the right people) at the right time (predictive sending for the greatest likelihood of conversion) and automated flows so that our clients are generating revenue
  • Integrations - We run ads for our clients, and ActiveCampaign automatically creates dynamic audiences for our social media platforms so that our ads are going to audiences that have just opened or clicked emails (or that follows up with people who haven't engaged). The number of programs that ActiveCampaign connects to makes the marketing a seamless experience for our clients.
  • Visualization of data - With the flow builder, you can see where people are in the process, what tags are being applied overall - makes it so much easier to create email marketing solutions for clients.
  • Reporting - The ability to see specific open, click, and conversion rates in one place.
  • Outstanding customer support - Having the ActiveCampaign team behind you makes it easy to recommend and use it for clients.

The data that you get about your customers, especially for us because we are using Shopify Plus and it connects so perfectly, is priceless. We are saving almost $2500 per in just the use fee versus what we were using before, which is also a nice benefit. Everything we need it to handle it does perfectly well and we couldn't be happier.

Our use case is primarily product-focused. We've adapted the functionality to work for our needs, but we don't use it as much for its intended marketing functions. Once we evolve our product to a more traditional LMS, we won't need ActiveCampaign anymore.
