Integration Capabilities: ConvertKit's ability to easily integrate with other tools in users' tech stacks was highly praised. Reviewers found it convenient to set up complex automations by seamlessly connecting ConvertKit with their existing systems.

Cons: Limited integrations: Some users have expressed that ConvertKit lacks advanced marketing features and has limited integrations with other platforms such as BigCommerce, Google Ads, and HubSpot Marketing. They feel that the integration options with CRMs or other tools are not as extensive compared to alternatives like Mailchimp. High pricing: The pricing of ConvertKit is considered higher by some users in comparison to similar tools. They mention that they are paying for features they don't use, and as their email list grows, the cost per subscriber can become expensive. This may pose a disadvantage for small creators or those on a tight budget.

They acknowledge that there is a steep learning curve but mention that it becomes easier with more experience.

  1. Users highly recommend ConvertKit for its easy email automation and creating automations. They find it simple to automate email sequences and create customized automations.

  2. Some users suggest using a different page builder as ConvertKit's capabilities are limited when it comes to creating sales pages. It is advised to explore other tools specifically designed for this purpose.

  3. Users recommend signing up for ConvertKit's emails as they provide helpful business information. They also highly recommend joining the ConvertKit community of creators and for valuable insights and networking opportunities.

These recommendations are based on users' experiences and emphasize ConvertKit's strengths in email automation, while also mentioning its limitations in terms of building sales pages.

  • Emails landing in subscribers inbox.
  • Free mailing address that customers can use.
  • Robust tagging system for managing funnels and targeting users with optimized emails.
  • Broad integrations available for other platforms and optin form plugins.
  • Pricing.
  • Google Analytics integration.
  • Email templates and a modern interface for composing emails.
ConvertKit would be well-suited to an established business/blog that has a steady revenue stream to afford the investment/cost of this premium email service provider. It is especially useful if the needs of the organization include needing to setup many advanced funnels/automations or other drip-content style email chains. A small business or new blog that is not monetizing its online presence should consider more affordable/free options.
  • Incremental traffic generation from a reliable source.
  • High-converting leads from sales funnels.
