Pros
Functionality and ease of use.
Cons
It's not cheap, but absolutely believe it is worth the investment.

FireDrum is great in that it has specific systems setup for specific goals and industries. It also has many other services to offer. I find that it may be a bit much to spend for the average start-up or non-profit, but a decent price for the medium-to large sized businesses.
Pros
Specific needs and goals can be met with their systems
Cons
Price

I have been working with FireDrum for over three years now and absolutely love it. The support team is always there to answer my questions! They recently switched to a new drag and drop editor which (truthfully), has been a bit confusing, but my customers seem to love the new layout. I recommend this to any business looking to send out quality campaigns with a return on investment.... Especially small businesses! My monthly priced was practically cut in half when I switched from Constant Contact.
Pros
Great price, great support team and great looking campaigns!
Cons
At first it was confusing to learn and remember how to access the different features.

Having used a more well known (and more complicated and more expensive) service for years, I was delighted with the simplicity of the FireDrum interface and surprised at the power of the controls. Of course, I wouldn't have dumped the higher-priced Email Marketers if FireDrum wasn't at least as usable (it was waaay more user friendly), but I haven't had to give up anything except higher prices and have gained in every way. FireDrum is great!
Pros
Easy to use. Easy easy easy.
Cons
I wish one could schedule more re-sends to unopened, each time refining in the send. One is great but four would be greater.

I recently switched from a large, nationally known email marketing provider. I initially made the decision based on the savings, but since making the switch, I could not be more satisfied with their all around products and services! From excellent customer service and attentive support staff to the impressive features and advanced reporting options--I can't say enough good things about FireDrum! I'm just getting my feet wet, but I can't wait to really dig in and get the most out of their services. Keep up the great work!
Pros
The features and functionality are second to none, and at half the price of competitors, it's a no-brainer!
Cons
It's not necessarily a con, but the interface for creating emails. I'm just not familiar with all the options and features yet (since I just switched to FireDrum), so for now, creating emails is a bit more time consuming. But I'm sure as I work with the software more, I'll get more comfortable with it. Honestly, the flexibility of the software is a plus . . . just maybe not when you're a "newbie"!

We have looked at HubSpot great and Firedrum, both fit in different places to get the word out about your product or services. The templetes get us to the spot and focus us on different clients not just a blanket email campain.
Pros
We like the features it adds that were so expensive in the past. Like how many contacts per month you slide the bar and add more bits and come up with a cost, even the free account we use allowed us to get started up to the limimt then grow from that point.
Cons
still working with the features but over all the software does what it says send email campains from mobile

I switched to Firedrum about six months ago because I felt that the contact management system I was using was cumbersome and expensive. I have not been disappointed! It's much easier to use, I love the templates, it's more affordable and the customer service is very responsive. I made the right choice and have recommended the company to several friends with small businesses.
Pros
Ease of use
Cons
Sometimes formatting on a template can be a bit challenging, but overall good.

I have been using FireDrum for 8 years, with multiple businesses and have been very happy with the service. It's easy to use and a great value for the price. Their support staff are local, friendly and always helpful. The free service is great if you have a small list but I really enjoy the templates and unlimited spending on the paid plans. I am easily able to track who's reading and interacting with our newsletter and that's very helpful with our marketing campaigns. Highly recommended!

I came over after using services from another company that felt quite limited. FireDrum has no image upload limits which is great. The price break was also great. I love the resend feature that is available to help my open rates.
Pros
Resend feature.
Unlimited image uploads.
Easy to use.
Cons
No facebook app integration to collect more email list members.

I tried Fire Drum because we were having design/layout issues with Constant Contact, and found Fire Drum to be equally user-UN-friendly. We decided to stay with the "evil we know"/ I don't remember how the pricing compared.

Ease of sending out emails without much hustle. It is very easy to manually add lists or to import from third party sites There are a number of customer care channels that really reduces time spent looking for solutions to problems FireDrum is generally a good and affordable service.
Pros
I loved the fact that they offer email templates to ease the creation of email accounts. The delivery rate on our emails was quite satisfactory with the majority of them getting past spam filters.
The tutorials that appeared when setting up campaigns were well timed, helpful and non-intrusive.
The animated drag drop and preview features really helped the non technical members of the team create professional looking emails within a really short time.
The last page where one has to confirm details before publication is a nice touch that I haven't seen in many competing services. It helped us make sure that all details were in order, a lot of mistakes were found and corrected in this final page
Cons
the dashboard is quite cluttered making it hard for a new user to know what they should be focusing on.
The bright red bars at the top and bottom of the page aren't exactly visually appealing. I feel that the messages being portrayed in these red bands could be done with a pop up on the site or sent as a form of notification email.
While the functionality of the service is on point, the UI badly needs a makeover.
I would have loved the free plan to have a higher sending limit. 100 is too low when you consider competitors in the space

Firedrum is an easy, cost-effective way to reach customers and prospects via email. It is simple to use and the reporting tells me who is engaging, so I can custom-tailor my message. The only drawback is that I am unable to layer text and graphics.

What a fantastic team! the entire support staff, FireDrum goes above and beyond to make sure my team and I are satisfied and that any problems we face are addressed and rectified within 24 hours. We really couldn't ask for a better partner.
Pros
Our agency uses FireDrum as a solution for many of our in-house clients and we do so with complete confidence. We like that we have the choice of a DIY method or a fully managed, customized service and we can adapt for each of our clients based upon their respective needs/wishes. Additionally, the fact that FireDrum continues to add functionality and value to its software just allows us to pass that value onto our clients. It's not just another email marketing platform...it is so much more. As an example, we now have the ability to implement automated drip campaigns! FireDrum does not disappoint, and the affordability makes it an even smarter choice for us all.
Cons
I think some parts of it aren't labeled logically, but I also feel that is a personal preference.
Thank you, Timarie!

Using FireDrum has been a major marketing piece for all of our clients. Not only do they have the best prices but the editor itself is super easy to use and the resend to unopens (OpenBoost) is really awesome. I highly recommend FireDrum for anyone currently using email marketing.

The OpenBoost technology is awesome and the new drag and drop editor is really great.

Initially I switched because of the price, it is less than half what I was paying at icontact.com. FD was just getting started and there were a few glitches, but the customer service was great. They improved over my first few months and now I enjoy the interface.
