One of the Best!
Great overall. It's better than most. Room for improvement (if not in price points) than in a UI/X and less to no errors.
Pros
Constant Contact has the BEST customer service. Top notch!
Cons
At this price point, there should be NO bugs in usage. Still, however, there are issues when trying to do a few things. As good as they are, and better than most, there if much room for UI/X improvement!
Reasons for Switching to Constant Contact
Mailchimp was not worth the barely cheaper cost since I was already familiar with Constant Contact. And the Acumbamail UI/X needs improvement to compete with Constant Contact...even at a lower price point.- Industry: Nonprofit Organization Management

Amazing Software for any organization!
We started using this when our organization was founded and it has been our staple software since. We use it to track how many people are engaging with our community. We can see if folks click through to go deeper, it truly is amazing! We've thought about changing over the years, but just cannot fathom not using it!
Pros
The variety of templates coupled with the opportunity to track who reads, clicks, etc. is invaluable at our knowing who is engaging with our community. Also, the variety of "offerings" through Constant Contact. It is more than an email system.
Cons
There are a few quirks with the system. Example - we have multiple admin emails in the system, but it will not allow us to choose a different "from" email as the default. It is one of our employees and needs to be a different one. This is not a game changer, you just have to remember to change the email if you start a brand new email stream. Talked with Customer Service and they said this is something they are working on.

MailchimpReasons for Switching to Constant Contact
The amount of Constant Contact stands out as a better choice than Mailchimp for many users due to its simplicity, robust customer support, and practical features. Its user-friendly interface makes it accessible for beginners, offering straightforward navigation and tools that don’t overwhelm. The platform excels in contact management with intuitive tagging and grouping features, making audience segmentation seamless. Additionally, Constant Contact provides clear engagement tracking, offering actionable insights to improve campaign performance.- Industry: Automotive

Great for Email Marketing and Client Engagement
Constant Contact has been a reliable tool for managing my email marketing. It’s user-friendly, offers great design flexibility, and helps me stay connected with clients. The automation features save time, and overall, it has improved my communication and engagement with my audience. Highly recommend it for any business focused on email marketing!
Pros
What I like most about Constant Contact is its ease of use for creating beautiful, professional email campaigns. The drag-and-drop editor makes it simple to customize templates, and the automation tools help me stay in touch with clients without much effort. The reporting features also give great insights into open rates and clicks, which helps me refine my campaigns.
Cons
The pricing can be a bit high for smaller businesses, especially when adding more contacts. It would be great if there were more affordable plans for startups or companies with fewer clients.
