Good fit for some just not for me

Reviewed 2 years ago

Have tried to use it for some time, a couple of days but the long list of disadvantages have made me find better and cheaper alternative.

Pros

Frankly speaking it would be hard for me to state positive sides to this SaaS. maybe the only one that I can say it's that it has a free version, so you can decide if it's for you prior to paying. Well there is one big plus and it's the support. They will try to help you.

Cons

Starting with it's core strength stated everywhere - simplicity. Well they made it so simple and haven't used common sense feature that it took me 10 minutes to find how to delete a block while trying to create an email ... It is marketed as perfect for creative people with less features that you don't need, but I really didn't find any added value only missing features with higher price tag. The free version comes with one BIG disadvantage, they will grant you the promised 1000 subscribers IF you send invitations to 10 other people. Each new person who joins will add you 100 subscribers. The the sad thing is that they haven't said that nowhere so you can read it before you sing up ...

Short learning curve

Reviewed 9 months ago
Pros

The learning curve of this software is very straight forward.

Cons

I still think the price is a little high if you compare to other softwares, specially if the dollar is not your main currency.

Real review from a long time user

Reviewed 4 years ago

Great experience. Have been using it for years.

Pros

What I like most about Convertkit is the ease of use. A beginner can go in and learn how to send emails, create campaigns, incentivize emails, email sequence setup and more very easily. What kept me away from email marketing for a long time was difficulty. I tried with a few different competitors with no success.

Cons

The pricing is a bit high. I wish there was a free option with a slow progression in price. The starting price is high and it gets even higher with the more subscribers you have.

Was not impressed for the monthly cost

Reviewed 2 years ago
Pros

I was initially drawn to this software based on positive reviews from colleagues and how intuitive and all inclusive it was meant to be.

Cons

I did not find it to be intuitive or easy to use - it seemed to require a more tech literate baseline. I'm guessing with time and effort I could have made it work but in the startup phase of my business, which is when I was trialing it, I had neither.

Great software, but kind of expensive

Reviewed 4 years ago

Overall, I loved the software and how easy it was to use. I just had to stop using it for budget reasons.

Pros

I loved how easy it was to set up automations and keep subscribers categorized with tags instead of using lists.

Cons

The only con for me was the price. This one is a little more expensive than others.

Convert kit is great for

Reviewed 3 years ago

Overall I would recommend ConvertKit to Blogger’s & business owners who don’t mind spending a little bit extra money for an email marketing software.

Pros

Convert kit is amazing for bloggers who are in need of a great email marketing tool. I love their automation feature which let you set up multiple email automations for different subscriber groups.

Cons

One con about this software is that it’s very expensive. If you are just starting out as a Blogger or a business owner it’s not as budget friendly.

Email Marketing Software that Makes Your Business Grow

Reviewed 10 months ago
Pros

ConvertKit is a powerful, easy-to-use, and affordable email marketing tool. I have been using it for landing pages, and I love how easy it is to get started. It's also helped us get new email subscribers.

Cons

ConvertKit has a limited email templates option and with their free plan, you can add only 300 subscribers. In my opinion, they're great and I recommend them to anyone looking to get started with email marketing.

I was hesitant at first, but...

Reviewed 4 years ago

It has made me enjoy writing emails, which is hard because you don't wan to annoy people.

Pros

Email software can be a lot from the set up to the actual use of the program. I tried others and they just made me not want to send emails. ConvertKit makes it super easy with the clean interface and easy to use tagging. If you have an email list that you are pretty active on I think ConvkertKit could be the winning factor for you. There are some advanced features like tagging, segmenting, all kinds of things that are soo useful!

Cons

If you have more advanced needs especially for really big list llike 100k or more it might be too simple for you.

Great Deliverability and Analytics

Reviewed 4 years ago

Overall, I'm happy with ConvertKit. They support their customers with great help articles, on demand support, and continuing education. It's easy to get started with the email marketing basics using this software!

Pros

If using in it's most basic form, it's easy to use. Settings up sequences and formatting emails are a breeze! ConverKit has great customer service - there's a chat option on the platform, a Facebook group with support, and they often release education/training webinars when new features are added.

Cons

There's definitely a learning curve when it comes to tagging, segmenting, and using the visual automation and rules. It takes some time to set up, trial and error, and a bit of playing around with to get comfortable. I've been using CovertKit for over a year and am still intimidated by some of the more robust features.

Great for bloggers or instructors!

Reviewed 4 years ago
Pros

I really liked the options for sending out emails. I felt like if you're a blogger or a teacher of some sort and you have a lot to share with your audience, then this is the email service for you. It's really easy to use and doesn't put you in a box of "share something short and sweet so we can move on to the next thing".

Cons

I had clients that I wanted to keep better tabs on. I think I just needed to enter more information than what the system could provide.

The best Email marketing platform out there.

Reviewed 4 years ago

Never had an issue with Convertkit, just works. Great to collect data, great to segment and easy to create and send emails or produce sequences. Just a really good piece of software.

Pros

The ease of use! Simple, straightforward and very intuitive to get up and running. Great templates to capture data as well as a rock solid segmentation system.

Cons

Needs a few more squeeze page templates, lags behind say, Lead Pages by quite a way.

ConvertKit is Totally Crap

Reviewed 3 years ago

A Total wast to time, effort and enjoyment.

I like the fact that they offer happy training

Cons

They make it extremely difficult to get anything out of it, with all their technical jargon and crap. Doing everything they can to make it extremely hard to use without having to pay for it.

Really great program!

Reviewed 5 years ago

I love using it for email marketing and list building. Wish there were more custom landing page features.

Pros

This program has a pretty small learning curve and is pretty easy to use. I love the dashboard where you can see your new subscribers and conversion rates at a glance.

Cons

 I wish there were more customized features for landing pages. I also wish there were more split testing options.
