Overall Satisfaction with ActiveCampaign

I currently use ActiveCampaign as my main email marketing software. I use it to create automated email sequences to welcome new members to courses that I sell or even to deliver freebies that are offered on my blog. I also use Active Campaign to send out my monthly email newsletter.
  • Automations.
  • Tags.
  • Sending out automated emails quickly and reliably.
  • The software can be slow to load.
  • It has A LOT of features and that can be overwhelming if you don't use them all.
  • I have sold more courses via email using AC than any other channel.
I would say ActiveCampaign is well suited to any sized business that takes its email marketing strategy seriously. It is a little more expensive than other email marketing platforms out there, so if you only plan on sending out the odd email and not really setting up complex automations, AC might not be the best choice.
