What do you like best about Constant Contact Advanced Automation?

Constant contact is a reliable way to disseminate information through eBlasts and get feedback through surveys. We have also used the event feature in limited capacities and generally have been happy with the experience. Constant Contact is something we use reguarly to keep out members in the loop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact Advanced Automation?

Events are challenging to use for payment. We have many members who only want to pay with cash and check so they are unable to register online, which is problematic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact Advanced Automation?

Editing emails - it changes font properties on me in the middle of typing a sentence withno rhyme or reason. Limited customization options in pop up signup forms (compared to the options available in landing pages, for example). No way that I can see to have a sign up form add a tag to the contacts that use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy for Emails, light on admin controls"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Constant Contact Advanced Automation?

Constant Contact makes it VERY VERY easy to create email templates and send out a campaign. Stupid simple. Lists are straightforward, automated segments are fantastic, and tags are a great feature. Creating and mangaging sign-up forms is straight forward, and tie nicely into the automated email system for something as nice as a custom "thanks for signing up to mailing list X". The KBs are well written, and support staff has been helpful with the KBs proved insufficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact Advanced Automation?

From an admin perspective, user access controls are VERY limited. Folks are either admins with full access (excluding billing), OR can only create campaigns. Further, there is limited integration with third party CRMs, particularly Blackbaud products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If by advanced automation you mean being able to have birthday cards and anniversary cards set up to go out after the initial set up, we love it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The automation does not go far enough - we need to be able to create automations that cover how customers respond as well as go on for more than 45 days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
