Yesware

N/A

WE were looking for a sophisticated tool to solve our outbound efforts and one name keep popping up. Outreach. We tried to set up meetings with them but they discovered us over an email and told us that someone from my org tried to look for their solution however it is not best suited. I replied, that I would still like to look at their tool to understand if this could solve our newly created team for outbound but they decided not to move onto a demo as not having Salesforce kinda was a deal-breaker for them.

Hence, we decided to stick to Yesware as we thought it solved our problem, and outreach maybe just looks for Enterprise level customers.

We use both Yesware and Moosend and they each serve their own purpose. Yesware is better suited for plain text emails, whereas Moosend is best for HTML emails. They do work together sometimes when we need our counselors to have access to an email we built in Moosend when we pull the HTML over to Yesware.

I've had deliverability issues with Mixmax and downtime issues with Apollo. No real service issues using Yesware, but it does lack in some features behind the two. Ultimately, deliverability was the most important factor for me in choosing Yesware. I like Mixmax's ability unwrap embedded iframes right into emails so content preloads on email. And I like Apollo's ability to suggest contacts and automatically A/B test. Using Apollo and Yesware in tandem worked best for me.

I think they compliment one another. While Outreach also provides great analytics, Yesware is more seamless.

We ended up changing from Yesware to Groove due to some functionality and integrations we needed like SFDC and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. We wanted to be able to track inmails and upload LISN leads automatically.

I found Yesware and Streak to be fairly comparable but Yesware's data analytics were superior.

Yesware is much more reliable compared to others. The tracking feature is the most outstanding feature of this software which is not provided to the same extent by other software. Users can track each and every email, whether email has been opened or not, which device has been used to open the email, how many times the email has been opened and what was the place where the email was opened.

Yesware is extremely limited in functionality compared to something like SalesLoft, which is a much more comprehensive tool. We originally moved to Yesware from SalesForce Inbox and Engage as that did not offer the flexibility to deploy templates and was much more cumbersome for the team to leverage.

Yesware was the only product that we evaluated. We thought about using HubSpot in tandem with it, but realized this was unnecessary.

I evaluated both Yesware and SalesLoft. I found that SalesLoft offered a ton of additional features that weren't necessary for our needs and had a price point to reflect the additional functionality. Yesware fits our needs with its product offering and price.

Yesware is much more efficient than its competitors and gives much more real-time results compared to SalesLoft for example that in my experience has lagged. Yesware is much more dynamically priced as well which makes it easy to fit any business's needs. We selected Yesware for their customer service and the customer buying journey as well.

Yesware is so much simpler to use. Because of the integrations and how easy it is to use it actually gets used by our team. I've used many systems like this in the past and nothing gets used as much as Yesware.

Yesware is less robust than Outreach. Outreach might be overkill for your needs. Outreach is a great SDR tool. Yesware is great for strategic email outreach.

Yesware if the first email tracking solution I've used.

I like both of these systems. YesWare did feel pretty easy for most sales reps to use and implement into their workflows.

There is no other similar product that I have used to compare to Yesware.

We had previously used HubSpot Sales. Yesware provides more detailed tracking analytics than HubSpot Sales.

Yesware is simple. There is less of a hassle upon implementing it and setting up multiple users. The pricing is also much more reasonable and pragmatic. HubSpot was overly complicated and not as specialized, trying to do too much instead of perfecting one aspect. With Yesware you pay for what you need and nothing else.

We use both and outreach has more functionality in terms of automation but it is 3-4X the pricing which is why I still stick with Yesware for a majority of my teams.

Honestly sample size is not very big. I've only ever used Yesware and I see no need to use something else!

All of these tools do what Yesware does, and more; but Yesware does the follow-up email portion best, in my experience. It is reasonably priced and is regularly adding new functionality to make it a sticky license for us to have. Yesware does not have predictive analytics or a particularly strong dialer solution, but it does provide team-wide and template efficacy tracking, and a basic dialer.

Yesware shares a lot of the email campaign features but Mixmax has a lot of "enhance" options that make setting appointments, sharing collateral, and adding videos to messages a breeze. Mixmax is very robust and has tons of features if you choose there pro or enterprise package. Definitely worth looking into.

I think Yesware uniqueness is about being easy to implement for solo users and small teams. You can get up to speed fast.
