What do you like best about Flodesk?

It's very pretty and the design was fairly intuitive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flodesk?

The customer service is abusive. One day I got a random form email (unsigned) about "suspicious activity" on my account. To keep my account open, they told me to delete thousands of contacts from my list. I promise you all of my contacts were valid. I asked to speak with someone on the phone before completing such a massive delete. They said they didn't have phone support. I asked one more time, trying to highlight the magnitude of what they were asking me to do. With that, Flodesk simply closed my account, refunded my money, and stopped responding to any of my emails.

I've never felt so disrepected by a company before. I'm with MailerLite now, and they are the polar opposite! So nice and friendly and they offer live chat support, which is super nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Flodesk?

This platform makes it easy to set up emails by choosing from beautiful pre-made templates. There is a template for everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flodesk?

It's not as customizable as I was used to with some other platforms I used. I didn't dive too deep, but Flodesk doesn't seem to have the same level of segmenting and list sophistication as Constant Contact, which is the software another of my clients uses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Flodesk is easy to use and is accessible on mobile. It saves time in setting up a sharp-looking email, but I don't think the template's customizability is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flodesk?

It was a little confusing to work with at first. Also, I know there are ways to organize your emails by folders, but it isn't very seamless so I don't utilize that option. I wish the folder organization was a little better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy templates help save so much time with designing emails. Also the automation was a game-changer for me! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Flodesk?

Flodesk's email templates are beautiful and the "drag and drop" user interface makes it really simple to use. I. like the ability to organize past emails in a folder for future use, and the automated workflows are simple and straightforward to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flodesk?

Often times, emails to my audience (especially new subscribers) default to the promotions or spam folders. This is frustrating as only a small percentage see the emails. I also wish there was a capability to share templates with other users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the simplicity of the design and user friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flodesk?

The only way to contact them if there is an issue or question is by email which takes forever to receive reply. Once you receive a reply does not mean they can fix your issue. It is like playing football, moving the ball of issue from user to flodesk, back to user, never ending. The issue is never solved. Will migrate to Mailchimp if the issue not fixed for another 24h (has been waiting for 4 x 24 hours) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy and beautiful design of email forms Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
