We use Mailshake for our cold and lead email outreach. It solved the issue of send emails one by one and also sorting opens, replies and leads responses
  • Connect email accounts of multiple providers
  • Email automation
  • Zapier integrations
  • Email cleaning
  • Pricing
Mailshake is best-suited sales, cold, and leads email outreach, the amount of personalized email you can send is excellent plus the follow-up. The sequence and lead catcher feature will save so much time.
  • On a positive one good lead email can cover your subscription
  • Mailshake has helped my clients acquire writers for their blog in a short space of time via email automation.
You can use Mailchimp or SendGrid for similar use, with Mailchimp the email automation is limited, and SendGrid holds up quite well. However, Mailshake is strictly designed and well equipped for email outreach and unusually cold emails, and its usability is second to none.
Mailshake support is outstanding, and they provide an excellent knowledge base for its users. If you have any issues, they respond ASAP without delay.

We have been using Mailshake for our drip campaigns to our email subscribers for about 3 years with incredible success. We had issues with email flow before and now everything works as planned. As a Marketing company, we feel confident to use the tool because it helps with our drip automation and follow-ups.
  • Extremely easy to use.
  • The interface is very clean and intuitive.
  • Sometimes it lacks some of the more advanced flow features.
  • Cannot tag emails.
Mailshake is an awesome tool to create a simple drip campaign with rules. The integration with a third-party email-sender is great and gives you full control of your campaigns with a dashboard to track how the responses are being handled by the system. If you need a more advanced drip campaign, I'm not sure if Mailshake is the right tool for you.
  • Increased engagement.
  • Increased deliver-ability.
For more advanced email campaigns, I use ActiveCampaign and the email sending provider because it gives more control and options related to the drip rules. Besides that, for simple campaigns that need to be followed up in a great, quick, and simple way, Mailshake is perfect from my point of view.
Quick support. They offer very extensive and detailed tutorials on how to use the tool, as well as how to succeed in sending emails the right way. It probably reduces the number of support tickets and general support needs. The videos make it very easy to use their solutions. Great way to educate new clients.

An important part of my position is lead generation. I prefer to make the first contact with other business owners by email. For that purpose, I use Mailshake weekly to plan and execute my outreach email campaigns.
The key here is the personalization of all email messages. Mailshake is the indispensable tool that saves me an incredible amount of time by automating the whole process but letting me still staying personal in my approach.
I quickly set up automatic follow-up messages for the recipients who do not either open or reply to my initial email. The best part is that once someone starts the conversation with me, I take over with personal email.
  • Saving time by sending pre-defined follow up messages to those who do not open the email or respond.
  • Great detailed stats in the dashboard.
  • Integration with CRM for automatic import of leads.
  • Great deliverability of emails with G Suite integration.
  • The CRM integration is only with Zapier (extra steps and costs).
Mailshake is a great tool for salespeople, business development departments and for anyone who can benefit from the automation of the email outreach process. Mailshake does all of this without appearing spammy. Mailshake lets you be visible in your prospect's inbox that is flooded by mass emails sent by your competition. The personalized approach makes sure your messages stand out in a positive way.
  • Time savings by automating the lead generation process.
  • Improved open rates of email campaigns resulting in more conversations started and better ROI.
  • Professional approach makes our company and brand more reputable.
These tools are undoubtedly reputable products that are used by millions of users. However, for the goal of lead generation by cold emailing, Mailshake shines by its genius approach of highest possible personalization of the messages. We see incredible results with every campaign; literally, multiples more of reply rates than we were able to achieve with the traditional email tools like Mailchimp.

We use Mailshake in our Sales department for sending out highly targeted outreach emails to a selected list of potential prospects. We are able to track the important metrics in the real-time (opens, clicks, bounces, replies) directly in the dashboard for a quick evaluation of every campaign. The campaigns can be automated to an extent based on the actions the recipient take.
  • The tool is very easy to set up. Once the list of recipients is ready, it takes only minutes to start sending the emails.
  • Offers Zapier enabled integrations for more advanced automation of campaigns.
  • The scheduling of emails to ensure the domain is not flagged for sending to many emails at once.
  • Mailshake works only with Gmail/G Suite accounts.
  • The only option for customizing emails is in the CSV file. It would be great if there were a feature in the tool for this.
  • Missing starts about the total number of opens of an email (it is only tracked once).
Mailshake is a handy tool for quick email campaigns with the capability of automatic follow-up emails and drip campaigns. It saves time by automatic sending of follow up messages to those recipients who did not open emails or did not reply.

Mailshake would not be suitable for users who do not use Gmail as their email platform.
  • Time savings thanks to automatic follow up messages.
  • Better email open and reply ratios with personalized emails.
  • Improved ROI with more business closed with email outreach campaigns.
While Mailchimp is an established email marketing platform, it is more suitable for jobs like sending out email newsletters or welcome messages.
Mailshake is a niche product that shines in cold email and drip campaigns that are highly personalized for each recipient. However, it relies on the Gmail infrastructure, which is great for those who already use it for emails.

Mailshake has become an indispensable tool for marketing and new customer outreach. Mailshake allows us to create email outreach campaigns with multiple and smart follow up emails based on the actions or non-actions of the receiver. Setting up complex email automation like this used to be confusing and complex but Mailshake makes it simple to setup these automation campaigns. Training of our marketing team took about an hour before everyone was comfortable with the software and setting up campaigns, really could not be easier to use. The ability to duplicate existing campaigns makes the whole process even easier.
  • Simple to set up and use. The interface is laid out in an easy to understand way and just makes the whole process easy.
  • Once a campaign is set up, all you need to do is add new emails and Mailshake does the rest.
  • The ability to set up custom email send schedules and follow-ups based on the needs of your campaign.
  • More detailed analytics and reporting options would make this an even better tool
  • Currently only works with Gmail and Gsuite, needs more email integration options
  • An in-app support chat function
If you use cold email outreach as part of your sales and marketing strategy then Mailshake is the perfect tool to do this easily and at scale. It is an easy to use email outreach tool and takes no time to train your team on how to use it. Once campaigns are setup then all you need to do is add emails to keep your funnel full.
  • Our lead generation results have doubled since using Mailshake at a minimal cost
  • We now have an easy but powerful lead generation channel setup
  • Mailshake integrates with via Zapier, so we are still able to streamline all leads to our CRM
We looked at several email marketing solutions to find a solution for our email outreach campaign but decided to go with Mailshake because of it's deep focus on email outreach, ease of use and pricing. Mailshake also integrates well with other software via Zapier so we did not have to make any changes to our existing contact management.
