(1-25 of 41)Say yes to Yesware!
- Tracks email open rates
- Tracks click rates
- Mass email campaigns
- Organizational tool
- Being able to send mass flows, need better interface
- Inserting images in emails, sometimes doesn't show up
Save time with templates and campaigns
- Email templates
- Customizable merge fields
- Better logic with recipient emails in campaigns
- Editing campaigns can be clunky
If a recipient replies from an email alias, they won't be removed from the campaign, which has caused communication issues for me in the past. If this could be addressed, the campaign tool would be nearly perfect.
The nature of templates and campaigns lends itself to be tricky to use as a team if you want to modify or personalize the templates. But for quick emails that need to have the same messaging, the Template tool is super valuable.

-We needed a solution to be easy to use point and click and did not require any setup.
-We needed to have a better solution to YAMM.
A must have tool to improve sales results!
- Provides insights on which subject lines are resulting in the highest open rates
- Allows us to send proposals or any attachment and get granular data as to how many times it was viewed, how long they viewed a particular slide, etc.
- Track engagement
- Sending to multiple recipients: No insights as to which specific individual opened, clicked, etc
- Can’t track for some organizations that block the ability to do so (not really something Yesware can control)
- Direct dials from email inbox
Less appropriate for internal tracking (sales people don’t care to see who viewed something if sending internally)

- Email open tracking.
- Links in emails clicked.
- Emails forwarded.

Great tool for tracking emails

Yesware is great for small teams & strategic outreach
- Reminders.
- Templates.
- Keeping track of emails sent.
- Not as robust as its competitors.
- The sequencing can be challenging and rigid.
- Does not integrate with Gmail as smooth as it should.
Great for sales, but needs some work
- Immediate notifications.
- Allows you to track when an attachment was opened.
- Allows you to create templates.
- Attaching files to Yesware has to be done one at a time. Very time-consuming.
- The notification for when a person opens an email isn't always accurate.
- The templates are very janky and take time to format.
Yesware is helpful
- Yesware does a good job on keeping analytics of the emails. Information that can be very useful for sales.
- A very timely alert of when emails are being opened.
- It does a great job organize email templates and making them very easily accessible.
- Yesware informs me when I open my own prior emails, which can useless and misleading
- Easy to set up and navigate.
- Helpful for tracking email opens and engagement with content.
- Ability to see the geo and device-type that the recipient is using.
- Sometimes the formatting can be frustrating.
- If your Salesforce data includes duplicate contacts it can be difficult to make sure communication is logged on the correct record.
Yes to Yesware!
- Tracking open rates, link click rates, and reply rates. This allows us to compare different templates in order to see which allows for the most interactions and meetings set directly from email engagement.
- Seeing exactly when someone opens an email and whether it is in their normal location. Also if they are opening on a mobile device versus a computer to be able to organize the set up of the email in a more beneficial way.
- Being able to save Templates for Mail Merges to avoid the duplication of effort that other mass email systems utilize.
- Currently, if you send a personal email to more than one recipient it will only tell you that "someone" opened the email, it would be nice to know which of the 4 people it was CC'd to actually opened it.
- With the last update from Google/Gmail, it made it so that Yesware reporting was a bit off. If the sender opened an email they would get the notification that "someone" opened it, despite the fact that is supposed to only be for recipients.
- Despite being a Team Leader or Manager, there does not seem to be a way to track the stats of the others on your team, which makes reporting a very difficult and time-consuming task. If this is possible it is not user-friendly in that it is not easily accessible.
- Sync emails into SalesForce
- Book a Time to avoid back and fourth emails to set up meetings
- Sync Events into Salesforce from gmail calendar
- Track Opened emails
- Campaign reporting. Being able to see where individuals are at the in the campaigns, how campaign templates are doing from a productivity standpoint
- Auto checking invalid email boxes inside of Salesforce
An essential tool for sales teams
- Ability to upload an entire excel sheet/CSV of contacts. Huge for avoiding to have to upload individuals manually.
- The multi-touch function, where you can send a prospect multiple emails, automatically, throughout the course of weeks/months and keep them engaged. Super helpful.
- The scheduling functionality. Some people check email first thing in the morning and are extremely busy during the day. The ability to schedule an email to go out at, for example, 7AM - is extremely effective and gives you a chance to make a touchpoint at a time when you otherwise wouldn't have been able to.
- I used to think that a LinkedIn Sales Navigator integration would be ideal, and then they rolled it out!
- One thing would be to find a way to auto-populate my signature line into the merge as opposed to copy/pasting it every time (but not the end of the world).
Yesware - very solid tool for engaging with prospects, partners, and sales pipeline
- Email tracking, read receipts
- Lead/contact management
- Planned and automated cadences
- Personalizable and shareable templates
- We don't use Yesware's dialer tool because it doesn't measure up to the quality or speed of their competitors
- Yesware has kept on a legacy tool, 'MailMerge' which is essentially duplicative to the main tool 'Campaigns', but has one neat feature that allows us to 'CC' another recipient, which is useful we want to reach out to two people at the same account
- Yesware makes sure that users don't add the same prospect to multiple email/call campaigns, but it does not offer that safety measure across users, so theoretically, two sales/marketing reps can be reaching out to the same person
Yesware is not as well suited for large-scale marketing operations that don't want to take the time to personalize their outreach. It is not a competitor for Marketo, but is more of a personal tool for individual reps to follow up with their leads and contacts.
Yesware direct user point of view
- Dashboards with open, clicks, downloads, and replies help teams track the effectiveness
- Real-time alerts increase contact rates and lets reps know when to reach out.
- Adding custom fields and mapping to a CSV file allowed for a more personal touch in mass communication
- Not being able to change subject lines for email campaigns per recipient impacted open rates
- Suited for teams sending a lot of email campaigns where one-offs would exhaust resources.
- Less appropriate if you are trying to nurture recipients based off of actions or track digital footprint.
- If you have a big sales org and use Gmail the team will love being able to insert templates or run follow up campaigns to re-engage opportunities.
Yesware is great for solo users and small teams
- Drip email campaigns.
- SalesForce integration.
- Automatic data manipulation.
- Managing cadences can be cumbersome.
- The UI's logic (or intuitiveness) could use some help too.
Yesware for Outbound Sales
- Email Tracking
- Email Opens
- Reporting
- Better teams functionality
- Better Reporting
- Clean up notifications
Yesware Rocks!
It helps us do email blasts, see when people open our emails as well as manage email responses & appointments.
- Alert you when an email has been opened by the recipient
- Allows you to include available calendar appointment times into your email correspondance
- Trackability
- Ease of creating campaigns (series of emails pre-planned for delivery over a period of time)
- Allow my appointment setters to use available calendar appointment slots for their sales partner
- Creating campaigns and templates with analytics to show which templates/cadences are the most effective. This has helped us improve our messaging and even better understand which types of companies/contacts we should spend our time with.
- I have used other similar technologies and always run into some sort of problems with my emails being logged into SFDC. This isn't something I have run into with Yesware.
- Sometimes the formatting, when you write a template, doesn't show up the same once you plug it into an email and it can be frustrating to mess around so that the email looks presentable.
- I wish there was an easy way to sort through your email tracking so that you can sort by emails that were opened up the most. This would make it even easier to prioritize where you send your next email.
Good email tracking & reporting for what I need
- Email Tracking - From opens/forwards/replies, it helps provide visibility.
- Templates - If templates are working based on high hit rates, you can save them and use them in the future.
- Reporting - Seeing how many opens/replies occurs gives me an idea as to what needs immediate follow up.
- I'm not sure I understand other pieces of the technology enough to know what else to integrate. For what I use it for, it works quite well. There are probably opportunities for wider engagement based on my persona/use-case.
