Reseñas y detalles del producto de Constant Contact

Initially, I was hesitant to add another subscription to my monthly expenses. However, joining Constant Contact proved to be a worthwhile investment. Their design team helped me create a professional email template, and once I had that in place, loaded my contact lists, and established a weekly email routine, everything fell into place. The results came sooner than expected - I received an inquiry from someone who had been following my email updates, requesting an interview to list their home. I secured the listing and successfully sold their property. Now, my email marketing program runs smoothly, allowing me to easily update and send weekly newsletters. The return on investment has been remarkable. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

When I uploaded my old and new contacts, I was temporarily locked out of the system because they were skeptical about the source of my contact information. I explained that I had used multiple CRM systems over the years, and these contacts were an accumulation from those various platforms. After a lot of effort and a frustrating period of time, they restored my access and the system was back up and running. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Ease of use, simple layout but still looks very professional. All of our email correspondnce for our local government office to our residents goes out through Constant Contact and we've been very happy with that. It was very easy for us to implement and integrates well with our other systems. I love that you can connect your social feeds within constant contact and even plan posts from within the platform.

Sometimes I wish a had a bit more control over editing features when designing a new layout for an e-blast. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Un punto importante para mí fue la capacidad de importar una lista de clientes objetivo y enviar el correo electrónico directamente desde Constant Contact. Me gusta lo fácil que es crear un correo electrónico. Las herramientas de construcción son bastante autoexplicativas. El costo vale su valor, especialmente porque se basa en cuántas personas se lo envías. Me encanta cómo cuando cargo una foto, se ajusta al cuadro de manera adecuada (una cosa extraña, pero un gran problema para mí en el pasado). Me gustan las plantillas preconstruidas que ofrecen. Generalmente no las uso al 100%, pero me ayudan a obtener ideas para diseños. Aprecio que hagan plantillas basadas en las próximas festividades. Tienen buena información de ROI sobre los correos electrónicos enviados y listas descargables sobre aperturas y clics también. También me gusta el hecho de que puedo enviarme correos electrónicos de prueba de lo que estoy creando. Me ayuda a ver si un correo electrónico es probable que vaya a spam. He hecho pruebas que mostraron que iba a spam, cambié algunas cosas en la línea de asunto, y luego el correo electrónico llegó bien. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Agregar capacidades de video sería bueno. Mi mayor problema ha sido uno que desearía que Constant Contact en general comunicara a sus clientes. Tenemos una gran base de datos de la que extraigo clientes (vehículos vendidos y vehículos atendidos), miles por mes. Usualmente apuntamos de manera bastante específica para los correos electrónicos, pero para el Black Friday decidimos ir más amplio (obviamente). Hice el correo electrónico y lo programé para enviarlo en un momento estratégico. Entro y descubro que no se envió a todos. Obtengo soporte en la línea y dicen que tienen que verificar y hacer todo tipo de preguntas para asegurarse de que estos son nuestros clientes y no una lista comprada. Incluso después de eso, el resto de los correos electrónicos se enviaron de manera escalonada en un período de 48 horas. Un correo electrónico de Black Friday es obviamente un anuncio muy sensible al tiempo y algunas personas no recibieron el correo electrónico hasta el último día del evento. Todos los gerentes continúan recordando ese problema hasta el día de hoy. Un aviso previo lo habría solucionado (habría respondido esas preguntas antes si lo hubiera sabido).

We use the product for our all staff weekly notes. We've made it into an interactive way for staff to know what is happening in the district. I use it every week throughout the school year, however, have thought about finding a different platform more often than not. I like being able to see how many people are interacting with our content. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

Strongly limited to what you can do with design in the product. More often than not, I have to refresh my screen in order to paste something into a section because the right click to past won't come up. After refreshing it then works. Your mouse has to be in a very specific spot in order for the options for text to appear. We also use the poll as a way to interact with staff and you are very limited on the number of characters allowed in the poll. Lastly, often times the text changes style and size from what you put into the section. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

I really enjoy the different features of Constant Contact, from the landing page to the newsletter. It is so convenient to not only schedule when the newsletter is supposed to go out, but to also have it resend to non-openers! And of course, the analytics is a sweet cherry on top-- I enjoy being able to segment and break down who opens the newsletters, and who does not! Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

When I was on the free plan, Constant Contact was constantly contacting me, as frequent as 2-3 times a week. It almost made me choose MailChimp over Constant Contact, as I did not require too many features for my marketing needs. Creating the newsletter also does not allow as much freedom as say, Canva does with creating anything, or MailChimp does with arranging the layout, but I would say it is good enough.

I have been using Constant Contact to create a daily newsletter for our ministry for over five years. it's ease of use and platform are so much easier than what I used before. The technical support has always been excellent. I plan to continue using this platform to reach our followers. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

the dropdown has been changed for changing color of the fonts and it is not as easy as the prior method. In fact, it is frustrating at times to get to it. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

I love using Constant Contact as the Communications Director at my school. It is an excellent tool for efficiently sharing structured and organized information with parents. I especially appreciate the ability to create lists and tags, ensuring the right messages reach the right audience. I love the "heat map" results. Being able to see which parents viewed my communications and what links gained the most traction is an amazing tool for ensuring I am effectively communicating. I use constant contact every day for my profession. It was easy to learn how to use and make my own creative spin with the tools provided. I also love the templates provided.

I wish I could upload PDFs as images, I always have to turn them into PNG. It's not a big problem, though. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

I love that I have all of my marketing tools in one place. Between email marketing, texting, CRM database, and automation emails - Constant Contacts is one of the best platforms we work with. It is easy to use, keeps all of my maketing in one place and the scheduling is super easy. I also recently began posting Social Media posts through the platform and I LOVE that I can post on all channels simultaneously. The Shopify integration is fantatic as well. I implemented it a couple of weeks ago and it has worked seamlessly. We use Constant Contacts every single day and I could not imaging running the business without it.

I wish I could send our MMS and not only SMS. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

I enjoy the ease of using Constant Contact. It is quick and easy to upload new contacts. Segmenting different customer preferences is super easy with the 'click to segment' option that is available. I also enjoy that the heat map shows the amount of clicks on each area that has been clicked on in an email. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.

We create all of our emails in Canva first and then upload them into Constant Contact for distribution. Due to that, our storage fills up very quickly, and deleting pictures is not an easy process. It takes a long time and glitches a lot when you are trying to mass delete. Uploading pictures as well can take a long time. Reseña recopilada por y alojada en G2.com.
