Absolutely necessary for email performance insight
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I'm an email developer. I use Litmus more often to QA my emails. I check how my email will render on multiple devices. I also check my accessibility rating to ensure my email is inclusive and accessible to my subscribers. If I build emails from scratch, I will often use Builder to help fix any rendering issues. I build my interactive models with the help of Litmus' Personalized Content modules. Beyond QA, I also use Litmus to track deliverability and analytics for all of my emails.
Pros
- Access to device renderings
- Personalized Content modules
- Providing insights regarding your code/content - accessibility, links, tracking, load speed, spam testing etc.
- Community
Cons
- I would like to be notified in the platform when new email clients for testing are made available.
Likelihood to Recommend
Proofing your emails is necessary. This is a tool that allows you to see how your email not only renders on multiple devices but how it performs. Some email building platforms will tell you their drag and drop templates are ready to go, however they stop short of analyzing accessibility, checking links, load speed among other things. I've also experienced drag and drop template issues as new email clients are released. Litmus provides peace of mind that you did your due diligence on crafting your email. While Litmus does provide some reporting you will not see every typical analytic an email report offers. However, you can use your Litmus data to enhance your email reports which in turn creates a robust view of email performance.
