Pros

“It's honestly quite wild to get email newsletter system with automations with up to 100 steps, unlimited forms and segments, 10 landing pages, A/B testing, click maps, and Stripe e-commerce integrations ...on a FREE tier!”
LK

“The automation builder and campaign reports are clear and practical, and the Shopify integration makes e-commerce tracking simple.”
