What do you like best about Sendlane?

Sendlane offers above-average deliverability, as well as custom event triggers that are remarkably easy to set up. Their predictive sending times of campaigns improves campaign performance a bit compared to the competition. Also, their support guides are incredibly well-written and contain substantial amounts of information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendlane?

Support for major e-commerce platforms not named Shopify, like BigCommerce, is dilapidated to the point that you cannot trust the accuracy of essential KPIs like attributable revenue. Additionally, contact imports are subject to human review–which itself is not an issue, but you may find yourself suddenly and inexplicably subject to being unable to continue manual imports even if your spam and unsubscribe rates are low. After switching email service providers to one of their competitors–who has no issue with manual contact imports–we experienced a noticeable improvement to deliverability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sendlane:

If you are a Shopify user and bring your contacts in solely through that CRM, Sendlane might be a perfect solution. Outside of that, look elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Sendlane showed us what features we needed to have when switching to our next solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sendlane?

The support was a pleasant surprise. So many products out there look great, but offer little-to-no support, beyond a slow responding help desk. Not the case with Sendlane. From the beginning we were assigned a Sendlane rep and I was pleasantly surprised at the level of help she provided in getting us setup. What a relief to have someone from Sendlane take the time to really look into how we were setup in our CRM and help us import data into our Sendlane account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendlane?

Nothing really so far. All of our contact with Sendlane has been nothing but positive thus far.

Note: I am new to the Internet Marketing space, so it would be good for Sendlane to have Sendlane have more information on their home pages that explains to someone with my profile (an IM newbie) why their service is good and why it's important to have in place, beyond the services that are already available to me through my current CRM. Maybe a section on their site that really spells out, in layman's terms, why the Sendlane service is important. My biggest question mark is how will Sendlane ultimately improve our bottom line, compared to marketing through our CRM.

I have yet to dive deep into the offerings of Sendlane, so there may be some things that come up later down the line. But for now, it's all systems go. The dashboard seems intuitive and complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sendlane:

I would recommend Sendlane. Especially for someone who may not be tech-savvy. The support we received from our rep has been much appreciated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Nothing too ground breaking to note here. We needed help with our email marketing and Sendlane delivered. I believe Sendlane will also offer us certain benefits in terms of reputation and deliverability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sendlane?

After trying many many autoresponders on the market I finally found Sendlane. Their platform is intuitive and constantly evolving and their support is 2nd to none, super friendly and always there to help with anything you might need from setting something up to looking at stats and helping explain them. Deliverability is excellent. I also find the automations an excellent feature especially the ability to split the audience based on their responses, really neat. I did have a challenge integrating with ThriveCart not a few months back and Sendlane were happy to get their development team talking with ThriveCart's team to find a resolution, a level of service I haven't come across. I am also impressed with the innovation and evolution of the platform which has seen several feature updates and releases since I have been using it. As I say I have tried many of the mainstream autoresponders and and Sendlane is the best I have used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendlane?

I haven't come across anything I dislike about the the Sendlane platform, as I say it is a very well thought out environment which is intuitive to use and has top notch support if you ever get stuck. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sendlane:

Try it out, I am almost certainly you'll love the experience, features and support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

My deliverability went up as soon as I started using Sendlane which ultimately converted into improved audience engagement and sales. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sendlane?

Ease of use, quick and easy process to create new campaigns, send to mailing lists, import of contacts, great integration options to various third parties like clickbank to grab your new customers from.

Powerful automation features with and/or/if statements to then send those contacts email blasts and track conversions from within. Able to resend emails to people who missed your first emails, to segment by email, name, location, other variables, etc.

They also allow marketing emails while many other email platforms do not. This is a very major selling point and makes it stand out from the rest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendlane?

if there was an easier "one click" type of way to cleanup bounced/unsubbed/inactive emails so they don't clog up the account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Best part is the set it and forget it nature. Create a massive automation once, then have it sent to all your new customers without having to do anything else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Mariesa Portmann of Sendlane

Hi Mike,

Thank you for providing Sendlane with a 5-star review! The problems the Sendlane platform are solving for you and your business sound like it has made a significant improvement to your program. Its marketing automation and targeted segmentation capabilities are definitely differentiated, giving business owners like you precious time back.

In case you are not familiar with this feature, Sendlane does offer a List Hygiene feature, which allows you the ability to maintain a clean and healthy list, removing contacts who are stale/unengaged. The great thing is, you can automate List Hygiene, too! Check out our help doc to learn more about it below - I think that you may find it a helpful practice to adopt. :)

Thanks again for the stellar review, Mike! We look forward to continued partnership together.

Cheers,

What do you like best about Sendlane?

The automations that you can easily custom build to help manage your lists. List hygiene is important, and Sendlane helped us setup automatic emails to retarget unengaged contacts and filter out the uninterested ones. The Sendlane staff has been super helpful in educating us on better practices and helping us improve our capabilities. Our engagement rates have skyrocketed since using Sendlane! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendlane?

There's not much we dislike. We have two brands on one account that we switch back and forth between, but revenue and metrics/data collection can only be integrated to one store at a time. It would be nice to connect to both storefronts this way. I wish there was a mobile app with some campaign building capabilities for managing our email marketing when on the road, but I'm told their dev team has been looking at it. More tutorials on specific automations would be helpful so I don't have to bug my Sendlane rep too often, but they are always willing to help anyway they can. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sendlane:

I would heavily recommend Sendlane to any mid to large size business that needs powerful email marketing tools without the hassles from other email platform providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have two brands that share some contact lists, but also have specific dedicated lists that don't cross over. Sendlane allows us to easily send from each brand and select the appropriate lists and segments for the message. We have seen a consistently higher engagement with both brands since switching to Sendlane. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Sendlane?

The way that I can categorize customers and develop focused emails for them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendlane?

I'm still fairly new to the platform so I haven't run into a problem yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sendlane:

I was surprised with the amount of automations and how user friendly sendlane is. the payback with email conversions was immediate. I anticipate the emails and newsletters we send out with sendlane with increase our monthly sales 5-10% upon initial review. Im hopeful that they will exceed my expectations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

After one email, we have paid for several months of the subscription to Sendlane. The conversions just from one email were surprising. I look forward to sending more emails with more automations and analyzing the what can be one to maximize customer engagement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Mariesa Portmann of Sendlane

Hi Peter - thank you so much for taking the time to give us such an awesome review! The incremental lift in conversions from using Sendlane is music to our ears; that is the kind of success and value we strive to provide to our customers. It's great to hear you are able to access more targeted, focused cohorts of customers through Segmentation as well. We appreciate your partnership, Peter, and look forward to continuing to exceed your expectations!

What do you like best about Sendlane?

I've been a client of Sendlane since 2018, and what I like the best of it is the support and help I get whenever I need it. All the features and the power of the platform are great, but without that support they would be worth nothing. So I would say Sendlane is the best ESP when it comes to support. Which is the most important aspect in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendlane?

I don't like the price increase, for more functionality, that I don't actually need. Maybe there should be different plans for that? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Mariesa Portmann of Sendlane

Hi Alex - thanks for leaving us an awesome review and more importantly, for being a loyal advocate of Sendlane since 2018 - wow! It's great to hear you've been enjoying the ride with us and have grown to trust our support to be best-in-class. I have received your feedback on the pricing update as well; we have not had to adjust our pricing for our customers in over 22 months and it is our commitment to continue offering a best-in-class product at a competitive cost for our customers. We appreciate your advocacy and partnership, Alex, and look forward to many more years of continued success together!

What do you like best about Sendlane?

Sendlane delivers solid performance balanced with integrations that allow me to connect with the systems we use to manage and maintain our email lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendlane?

Unsubscribers count towards your limit and the process for importing leads is slow and tedious requiring compliance approval, especially with ZOOM. We do frequent ZOOM webinars and because they do not give us the IP address at registration, we are unable to import or use Sendlane for our zoom follow-up messages until they create a ZOOM integration.
