Pros I have been a user of EmailOctopus for years and have seen the company, services, and functionality grow and develop over time. The customer service has been extraordinary whenever I have had questions and I have always received highly respectful communications from this company. They know that your success makes them succeed as well so they are in your corner every step of the way and they treat customers fairly at all times.
The ease and flexibility of this web-based program are outstanding and I have made recommendations in the past that have since been implemented. What the service is now is a godsend for anyone needing to send bulk emails whether frequently or occasionally because they allow you to scale up or down to your needs, which I see as further proof of their customer first philosophy.
The setup is easy if you follow the instructions or ask for any help and once you are setup with amazon and email octopus, you can be confident that you will achieve everything you desire with this service. Best of luck to you all in future endeavors.
Cons None Exist. Try to change my mind. This service is outstanding.
I needed an easy and inexpensive way to host email. This has done the trick and then some! Really pleasantly surprised.
Pros Very easy to use, inexpensive. Great deliverability!
Cons Doesn't have an easy way to segment your subscribers.
Response from EmailOctopus
Hi there,
We have some good news on segmentation - we've just launched this as a feature so you can now segment your mailing list based on custom fields and the data that's most important to your business.
I like it, but that's because I found workarounds.
Fx. I design the NewsLetter in MailChimp and copy/paste the HTML. It works fine that way.
Pros I moved from MailChimp, because of the price tag. Octopus is way cheaper, but it's still possible to send the same quality emails and that's great.
Cons 1. A better interface to make your own template/design. Limitations in fonts, sizes, etc
2. List features are limited. No way to create segments or groups based on subscriber data.
3. Regarding reports: A graphic overview of where the clicks are placed.
