The cost to value with EmailOctopus has been incredible. Reaching out when you need help is easy, and the response is fast. I am glad we made the switch and would recommend more small companies to give them a try.
Pros
EmailOctopus has a robust template system that makes it easy for anyone to create marketing emails that look nice. The branding template is smooth enough to upload your brand colors, and the tagging, segmenting, and contact field sections allow for customizing demographics for specific emails. EmailOctopus is user-friendly and a wonderful tool at a wonderful price.
Cons
I would like to see more flexibility in custom reporting, especially when comparing campaigns. In addition, email automation is not intuitive and needs more work.
Reasons for Choosing EmailOctopus
The cost was prohibitive for the number of emails we were sending out. In addition, many of out emails were not being opened.Switched From

Excellent and personal responsiveness by the support team. Elegant interface and easy to use. The team has their eye on the details and stays up to date with data privacy matters, which takes the stress out of my email communications.

Payment options are limited to credit cards, but that was easily accounted for, and when I changed payment options it was seamless.
