What do you like best about iContact?

I like that there are sliding scales based on how many people you're trying to reach (if you're using it for automated emails). For ex our business only had about 450 subscribers and it was around $15 a month to send out our emails and track them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iContact?

May just be a glitch but it seemed to work better on our ipad than Android phones. Just a little longer load time between pages on the Android. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering iContact:

Make sure you know how big your market is because it will affect your monthly cost Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We were sending newsletters, event invitations and updates and tracking how many were opened etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about iContact?

Our representative works with us to meet our needs. We have come to him with some pretty complicated requests (at least we thought they were) as we are the host organization for multiple programs. Our rep is willing to working with us over the phone until we get what we need, even if that takes multiple calls and training sessions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iContact?

Learning curve of advanced functionality within iContact has been challenging for us but we know that it will take our business to the next level. We also know that we couldn't do it without the support of our very patient rep. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering iContact:

Understand your business needs and share them with the iContact team. The team will be able to help you get started the right way so that things are smooth as soon as you start in the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Most recently we have been trying to set up email accounts for all of our programs, four in total. Each program has different needs, audiences, and established contacts. With iContact we were able to provide a way for all of our programs to meet their email marketing needs at the same time, rather than only being able to service one program at a time.

What do you like best about iContact?

We joined right as they were using the new email editor interface.Everything was straightforward.

The list organization also helped us ensure we were segmenting properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about iContact?

At the time, the Google Analytics feature wasn't as integrated as possible. They didn't have an automatic track per group of emails. I'd prefer having only an admin be able to change those settings so there is consistent measuring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering iContact:

It's very much worth considering among other options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We wanted to send messages to people with improved tracking and a more intuitive email interface. We saved thousands over our old vendor while enabling more users across the unit to manage their own email creation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
