As a startup founder, It is really difficult to choose the right platform to commit with. You have free options and very expensive ones. So Active campaign was a great option for me, right on the sweet spot.

Their customer success team is the best. I have had three on boarding one-on-one calls where they have understood my business and helped me with all the setup, resources and best practices to start using it the best way possible.

It is a very robust system, I only use the email automation, segmentation and I am starting to use their CRM, but the posibilites are endless. So far I love it

Pros

It is super easy to setup and use
The best customer support I have ever had on any kind of service/product
A thorough on boarding process, with personal coaching
You can automate every single part of your marketing funnel and still have a nice personal touch with your best leads
Endless possibilities to interact with your customers and prospects and track every behavior with you

Cons

It is so wide that I find myself a little overwhelmend on how to take as much as possible from the system without burning out.

I am in the 2,500 contacts bracket, and I think its price is fair. But when I have to sacle it up, it will seem pricy

Alternatives Considered

ConvertKit and HubSpot Marketing Hub

Reasons for Choosing ActiveCampaign

I made research and wanted a more robust solution. I compared Active campaign against hubspot and convertkit and I preferred Active Campaign

Reasons for Switching to ActiveCampaign

Pros

Our team uses for Sales but also for email contact with clients/students to inform them about changes and offers. It have great contact segmentation for sending right email to right customers at right time.

Cons

Price increase puts it in the competition with Hubspot and other great alternatives so you need to use all options to prove cost. Dashboard could be more versitile to fit specific needs.

The best marketing automation platform

Reviewed on 13/08/2023

Pros

I can say 'awesome.' Within a few hours, I have set up my marketing automation on ActiveCampaign. The dashboard and interface are super simple. I love the segmentation in email sequences, and it has helped me grow my business and list.

Cons

I have been using ActiveCampaign for a long time and haven't had any issues, but I believe there should be more emails per month.

Alternatives Considered

ConvertKit, MailerLite, Brevo, EngageBay CRM, Klaviyo and Keap

Reasons for Choosing ActiveCampaign

Mailchimp is quite complicated. Interface is not good.

It allows us to simplify our marketing activities using automations while also helping build more personalized marketing content which has made it possible to attract more customers.

Also, with ActiveCampaign we get an upper hard at our marketing strategies as it allows us to deliver more personalized and audience targeted marketing content.
