Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why

Super easy to use and easy to understand. The functionality and support are right at your fingertips, and getting the system up and running was quick and easy. We love it at our company!

It can be pretty slow at times and auto save has messed up more than a few times when we've had multiple editors on an email. I wish versioning was handled better or that you could automatically sync and export emails to a Git repository. I really wish that you could have CSS as a partial instead of just a snippet. I would love to be able to tweak the CSS in a template or partial and then have it change all the emails with that template or partial. Despite all those shortcomings, it's the best email building and testing tool out there right now by far. It's also priced fairly for small teams and is usable by people who aren't very familiar with HTML and CSS. I have built out a complete email design system in Litmus, and it has greatly decreased time to build emails.

This is a solid platform that is fast and straightforward when it comes to learning and incorporating the "bread and butter" Litmus capabilities. And those work well, work consistently, and are readily available at scale. The complications in the more advanced (aka what will set you apart) functions are, clearly, more advanced in the setup, modification, deployment and monitoring but THOSE are the challenges that, when Litmus is the right tool and you invest the time AND resources to set up, will differentiate the work your team delivers.

Litmus has integrations that make the software an integrated part of my work every day. Being able to test right within my email builder is just brilliant. Daily I also use the web interface to review analytics and spam testing. Overall it is one of the pieces of software I use daily without any complaints or issues.
