Pros

“I like that AWeber offers drag-drop editor which makes it much easy to create, customize and send emails.”

Christin M.

Business Owner

“It helps us track comprehensive metrics by measuring open rates, clicks and conversions to then improve and make our campaigns more intuitive.”

Karen M.

Senior Director of Marketing

“I had to clean up our lists to help keep the costs of the software down, since it was based on number of subscribers- and have the same subscriber on multiple lists upped the number.”

Vanessa C.

Marketing Associate

Pros

“Wish there were more design template options for both the newsletter and the archives page, and that readers had a more visible way of interacting so they can reply/comment to each other on posts.”

Amanda S.

freelance writer

“In addition to being easy to use, the company provides personalized support: the team quickly responds to any email you send them, making the experience of using the service as close to being served by someone at the counter of a store with years of tradition as possible, rather than the cold service of a mega corporation.”

Adriano M.

Owner

“In a world where social media is trying to control the message as well as the means, it is vital to have a direct way to contact those interested in my work.”

Dusty P.

Author

Cons

“The WYSIWYG email builder is wonky; the form generator is ancient; the templates are at are best not-bad and at worst atrocious; and the overall interface is lagging behind other companies, especially at the new price point.”

Anthony R.

Publisher

“Unfortunately, it does not work all the time and it's not so easy to navigate their interface to solve the issues.”

Jo-Ann N.

owner

“Not everyone clicked the link to resubscribe and I lost thousands from their software.”

Carolyne M.

Owner

Cons

“I accidentally misnamed the newsletter at first because I thought I was just filling out a username for the website, although I haven't used one of these sites before.”

Cass A.

Head Writer for Non-fiction

“Then seeing the poor delivery rate & getting no response from support for weeks, I grew frustrated and disappointed, and started looking for alternatives.”

Rupert M.

CEO

“I've gotten several emails about my newsletters landing in spam, which is a bummer.”
