What do you like best about DirectIQ?

I didn’t get to play around with it too much honestly, but I have to say their free templates are pretty good, and it does offer a lot to those unable to afford a monthly cost for the services! I like the social media & contact management sources mostly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DirectIQ?

There wasn’t too much I didn’t like about it, just more I wasn’t interested in using everything all at once, so some of the stuff I didn’t use but it my own choice not to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was very helpful in terms of newsletter & other email content for my subscribers, allowed me to manage my contacts family effortlessly, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DirectIQ?

There are a lot of marketing software out there, but I can tell you that Directiq is the best solution for marketing agencies. You feel this company's passion.

They offer a complete set of tools and services to help your agency grow and succeed. From the entry onto their website, you see their commitment to providing an authentic user experience from A to Z. From the entry onto the website to the way they set up their social media accounts, Directiq goes above and beyond what you'd expect from a company like this.

I've been using them for years now, and I couldn't be happier with the service they provide! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DirectIQ?

I've tried many different solutions for our clients, as we are truly passionate about helping agencies create great experiences for their clients. There is not really a dislike in the offering of DirectIQ. But if you disagree with me, tell me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DirectIQ:

Want to know a secret about marketing agencies?

They're not always the best at marketing themselves.

When you're in this industry, you know that your clients are paying you to create a successful campaign for them. And when they come to you, they're looking for someone who can help them make their company's brand stand out. But what if they don't know how to explain what they want? What if they don't know how to describe their audience? What if they only know that they need something—but they're not sure what?

That's where DirectIQ comes in. We believe that the answer is an authentic user experience from A to Z. From the entry onto your website, all the way through to the conversion and beyond, we focus on giving your users an experience that feels like it was made just for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DirectIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

The answer is in the details—Directiq goes beyond just fixing bugs or improving the UI/UX on your website; they help you optimize everything from your landing pages to your emails so that people are excited about what they're clicking on, and so that they feel like they're in good hands when they're interacting with your agency!

What do you like best about DirectIQ?

1. Has an excellent template library - which is a perfect balance of qualitative and quantitative templates - all of which are customizable

2. Some features are amazing. Like Spamdoctor and Device View. Helps in avoiding spam filters of prospects as well as get a good grasp over how our emails would look like on an iPhone vs an iPad vs a Web Browser vs a Gmail Client vs a YahooMail Client.

3. Campaign Reporting is pretty amazing too, especially for beginners who're starting with marketing campaigns Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DirectIQ?

The only thing to dislike is that even after using SpamDoctor, emails tend to hit the spam folders of prospects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DirectIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

Testing Email-Marketing Waters: Especially for Newby entrepreneurs and SMBs who have little to no experience with running marketing campaigns. DirectIQ can be a great tool for starting up and is definitely less complicated than something like a Pardot or Marketo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about DirectIQ?

The integration feature of Direct IQ with WordPress is one of the reasons why I have liked this product because of how easy it is to import contacts into Direct IQ for marketing purposes. More so as a benefit this feature helped to save a lot of time manually inputting contacts since the connection is seamless the import process is automatic as well.

I like that it preloaded templates that always help us to kick start emails to be sent to our targeted customers. These templates often cover a lot of scenarios which makes it easy to choose the relevant template and it saves us a lot of time.

Another feature that I have found to be very helpful is the availability of Social Media Integration that involves Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin and since our customers regularly visit social media I have found this to be a simple way to market and it is very convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DirectIQ?

Having used this product and seen the capabilities and how much time saved through its integration feature I would confidently say no dislikes so far at this moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering DirectIQ:

To anyone considering the product I would say this is a great choice because of how easy marketing becomes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DirectIQ solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have a lot of customers that constantly require updates on new products and before this product it used to be very difficult and time consuming manually entering their email and other contacts but since we moved to Direct iQ the process of marketing and updates is now seamless and easily to accomplish.
