Overall Satisfaction with ActiveCampaign

I use ActiveCampaign to handle email marketing for my small online business. I use it to collect leads, warm them up with automation, and then sell products and services. I use it for both automated and broadcast emails for all communication with my list, with several automated series going simultaneously at any given time.
  • Email automation
  • Lead generation
  • Communicating effectively with different parts of your list
  • Lists vs. tags can be somewhat confusing -- I feel it could be all tags
  • UX is a slow and sometimes confusing
  • Snippets are difficult to use
  • Saved countless hours vs manual email
  • Sells for me
  • Allows me to iterate on my best work
I used to use MailChimp, and ActiveCampaign is just so much more flexible when it comes to things like segmenting your list. Now instead of sending everybody everything, I know that the emails I send are to people who are interested in that specific subject, which helps with engagement and ultimately sales.
It's very well suited for what I use it for: handling email automation for a small business. They have more robust marketing automation tools for larger businesses, but I don't use them so couldn't comment effectively. Ultimately, I feel like it's the most flexible, best bang for the buck email solution that's out there.
