We currently use Aweber in our marketing department exclusively to help automate our user acquisition and retention efforts. It helps us free up our bandwidth by automating tasks that would otherwise be done manually by an associate spending a few hours a week. The reports we export are easy to set up and easily actionable upon by higher levels of management.
  • Great and effective marketing automation makes your strategy more efficient
  • Form templates make building emails so much more simpler without having to know coding
  • Great and reliable deliverability rates for your promo and newsletters
Cons
  • Could use some additional tutorials for advanced usage of aweber
  • Lacking some of the filters for targeting email lists by geographical areas ie zip code or dma
  • Has a bit of a learning curve in order to fully implement the full offering of the solution
Aweber excels at email marketing in addition to the built-in solutions it offers such as automated marketing. This makes it perfect for all the triggered emails you need to create for various situations such as e-commerce abandoned cart emails to retain customers and improve your overall revenue. You'll have to review how you'd use the solution.

Simple easy to use email marketing software! Great inbox deliverability.

We, SeeResponse, are a full-service B2B marketing agency that specializes in email marketing. We provide managed email marketing services and use AWeber to help our valued customers build, launch and manage their email marketing campaigns. These campaigns let our customers promote their products and services and also send informational content like blogs, articles, webinars, and newsletters. The frequency of these emails ranges from daily to monthly. But most of the emails are on a weekly cadence. Though most of our campaigns run on a periodic basis, we also leverage AWeber to send out one-off broadcasts. These usually are product launch emails, corporate announcements, and press releases or news bulletins. The business problem that AWeber helps us and our customers solve is that it eliminates the complexity associated with sending out email marketing campaigns a great deal and provides an easy and simple email outreach solution at a rather inexpensive price point.
  • AWeber provides great email deliverability. Emails get into the inboxes.
  • AWeber's reporting feature and the dashboard view.
Cons
  • The default view that's associated with a list vs. the account or campaigns.

It is a rather strong email marketing software. We love the fact that they provide great email deliverability. We also like their dashboard view. Their reporting interface displays account overview, subscriber stats, metrics from your recent campaigns, and stats from your lists. From the dashboard itself, one can look up a contact from the "list stats" section and can also update contact status or unsubscribe a contact. This saves you additional steps.

AWeber can work on making better the default view that's associated with a list vs. the account -- which is different from most email software out there. To elaborate, the default view will always be associated with a list of what they refer to as "Current List". From a user perspective, this means that you have to skip between the lists to see campaigns send to that list. This as opposed to the more standard campaign list view that most other email software have is a little tricky to get used to, especially when you are starting off new on AWeber.

I am a Digital Marketer, and I use AWeber for my affiliate marketing. The product addresses several business problems for me, including the need to build and maintain a list of subscribers, create and send targeted email campaigns, and track the performance of those campaigns. With AWeber, I can create opt-in forms and landing pages to capture email addresses from website visitors.

AWeber also provides reporting and analytics tools to help affiliate marketers track the performance of their email campaigns and make data-driven decisions about future campaigns. The scope of use cases for AWeber in affiliate marketing is quite broad, ranging from individual affiliates promoting products to large affiliate networks managing multiple campaigns across various niches. Some common use cases include Building an email list, Promoting products, Nurturing leads, Reporting and analytics. Overall, AWeber provides a robust set of tools for me to build and maintain their email lists, create targeted campaigns, and track their performance.
  • AWeber's automation features are robust and flexible. I can set up automation workflows based on a variety of triggers, such as when someone subscribes to a list or clicks a link.
  • AWeber's landing page builder makes it easy to create professional-looking landing pages without any coding experience. I can choose from a variety of templates, customize them with my own branding, and publish them.
  • AWeber provides detailed reporting and analytics on every aspect of an affiliate's email campaigns, including open rates, click-through rates, conversion rates, revenue generated, and more.
Cons
  • AWeber's landing page builder lacks advanced customization options, making it challenging to create unique and eye-catching landing pages.
  • AWeber's email template library is limited compared to its competitors. While the platform offers a wide range of templates.
  • Email is not properly optimized, I mean sometimes email mobile interface is not optimized.
AWeber is an excellent email marketing solution for small to mid-sized businesses, especially those that are just starting with email marketing campaigns. AWeber is also good for bloggers. But it's not perfect for an affiliate marketer who wants to make a landing page on AWeber. Businesses that require advanced segmentation options may need to consider other email marketing platforms.

AWeber beats the Chimp, hands down.

We used AWeber to design and send e-blasts (and track them) for our business WomensHealthMadeSimple.com which was an off-shoot of MenopauseReliefToday.com (for which we also used AWeber). AWeber was very helpful in providing templates or letting us create our own, and it was very easy to track our success with opens and click-throughs. It is MUCH MUCH easier to use than MailChimp. MUCH better UI.
  • MUCH better UI than MailChimp. For those of you who don't know what UI is, it's "user interface." MailChimp's user interface is horribly confusing. AWeber makes things SIMPLE and you never get kicked to a different website for help, and you can find the buttons. I'm a programmer and I am happy that AWeber is easy for people to understand.
  • Easy to use and understand their statistics and their setup. It's also MUCH easier to program your own template. MailChimp makes it really hard with declarations and extra specialized code languaging that's proprietary, and so I loved the fact that AWeber makes things EASY.
  • In addition to my womenshealthmadesimple.com business I used AWeber in, I also recommended AWeber to my advertising and marketing clients from my other business GraphicAlchemyOnline.com that I owned.
Cons
  • The one thing MailChimp has that AWeber doesn't is that test where the template code gets sent to about 15 different browser types on mobile and web. You can view which ones break the code or otherwise show the template very funky. That is most helpful and that is the ONLY thing I'd recommend that AWeber changes.
Are you importing a list from somewhere else and do you think the subscriber is likely to resubscribe? If they are unsure, I would recommend MailChimp because they don't make the person resubscribe. AWeber makes the person resubscribe. When it's an imported list and you're changing providers, you're likely to wind up in spam. So it's kind of irritating that AWeber will kick people off your already subscribed list if they don't subscribe a second time.

Most Amazing Email Marketing Software I ever used! The simplicity is outstanding

AWeber is a great email marketing software for us. As a digital agency we use AWeber to collect for our clients. We also use Aweber into other businesses of ours. It is great platform for automation. We do not have to set up day-by-day emails. We're able to set up and schedule our email campaigns all at once.
  • It is very easy to use and it has friendly user interface.
  • Following up series - set up follow-up emails series so that whenever a subscriber enters into your list they start to receive emails from you.
  • Landing page - basically now if you are tight on budget to psu for landing pages software, on AWeber you can create your own landing page to collect leads.
  • It gives you a 30 day free trial to test things out.
Cons
  • AWeber does not have a free plan.
  • There are some keywords that are not allowed to be used in your emails otherwise AWeber shuts down your account.
  • You're not allowed to import the subscribers that have been bought from third party.
AWeber is suitable for any Internet marketing business whether you are beginner or pro. It has everything you need for Internet marketing. It even supports affiliate marketing some other auto responders do not support. If you are still starting out or completely a newbie, AWeber customer support delivers an outstanding service. It helps to keep track on the campaigns we're sending out to our clients by showing us real-time reports and analytics. We're able to know the performance of our campaigns by showing Open Rates % and Click Rates %.
