PersistIQ Reviews

The best thing about this software is how it eases the process of generating and sending cold e-mail campaigns. I and my team mates no longer have to spend 2+ hours a day pasting and customizing e-mail templates, and worry about follow ups

The main con of this software is ease of generating reports. It is difficult to access more than baseline data (for instance, in order to see each team members daily reply rates, I have to keep my own excel sheet, as it does not show the %, but rather displays it in aggregate absolute numbers.

I find PersistIQ easy to use for all of our outbound sales engagement activity.Integrates well with our Salesforce and basically takes care of the tasky part of email marketing campaigns like list compilation, tracking email delivery, scheduling newsletters etc thereby providing everyone in the sales department with more time to just focus on closing deals.

I have sometime experienced a bit of lag with this program,especially when I have tried customizing a previously scheduled email.

There was nothing postitive about this experience at all. I have nothing good to say about the team or tool.

There is an extreme lack of communication/help from the Persist team as well. When you chat or email them, you usually get an "away" message or a "be back in 3 hours". In sales, you can't wait that long to get an answer. There needs to be 24/7 help. Speaking to their support team is like pulling teeth. I had to ask the same question 5 times to get an answer.....which still made no sense. On top...

PersistIQ enables you to prospect by reaching out via email. The platform enables you to create a step-based system with automatic followups. I loved the ease of use and even though it is a simple platform it also is powerful, enabling manual steps and so forth. Back in the day when I was using it was by far one of the best platforms.

It would have been nice to have more features to track the success of campaigns in terms of number of meetings yielded.

Ease of use and the intelligence of the tool.

The reporting capabilities are not where they need to be yet. Especially, it's a big turn off that the Reporting Card function only shows the last three months and not older.

None. There are better tools out there that provide better value

Here is what happened in my experience with this organization. I was sold on the service that they would take care of all the copywriting and email outreach to schedule appointments. I would need to provide information on the company and the services, and they would take care of everything else. I was told with the package I selected; I would have between 2-3 appointments a week. In three and a half...

Interface: Modern, straightforward and mostly self-explanatory Price: very good price-performance-ratio Scalable: If you have a ton of contacts, it's very good to run them through the tool

Analytics: Some basic analytics are implemented, but more would be better Placeholder: So far only static placeholder (like name, title, and others), dynamic placeholders could be a big plus

Super easy to setup with awesome features like team management, out of office detection and domain blacklisting. We use it for marketing and sales and it works perfectly.

Could have more Zapier options to update users etc, but I believe that is on the roadmap for the near future.

It is nice to be able to add in campaigns, create custom steps, and maintain your marketing cadences.

Sometimes the platform is a bit less than intuitive. Also, if you accidentally do something (ex- skip someone in a campaign step) it is difficult to add them back in.

PersistIQ is simple and easy to use. The interface is intuitive, and all of the basic functionality is there to enable running efficient email campaigns.

There's no option to easily import and record the status of previous email campaigns (i.e. import a list and check to see who from that list has previously responded to an email).

The ability to customize snippets, lead segments, and lead status. Customized templates. Easy to duplicate the campaigns.

Terrible support. Lack of tutorials for helpful information. Very little DIY approach requiring back-end support.

Easy to use from prospect loading to message sequencing to analytics! Great value for the cost!

Very little to not like, but I'd appreciated prospect management functionality to be similar both in-campaign and on the prospect list. There are some very nice things you can do to manage prospects in-campaign that you can't do from the prospect management list. But this is NOT a big deal - it's a "nit" nice-to-have.

Easy to use, no training required, very intuitive

Slow support, most changes require support, email was disconnected often--requiring support to reconnect, system lacked intelligence for custom sorting

None. seriously none.

Support sucks. CEO is a scam artist.

It makes it simple to keep information up to date on leads and follow ups

It also tracks open emails from my outbox

- Ability to personalize emails in campaigns before sending them out - Analytics on email campaigns - Zapier Integration

- wish it had CRM built-in to be a full sales suite - right now am stuck also paying for CRM - slightly more expensive for features being used

The templates and version testing make this a very powerful product. The integration in G-mail makes it easy to build upon emails at large volumes.

The fact that the API of this product is not very open-ended, which is why it does not allow you to integrate and connect your other business tools.

Persist makes it simple to group a number of contacts into easy to create/send campaigns. This type of function is essential to my role as a BDR.

My least favorite aspect of persist is the wait times between emails. I often am seeing emails sent late at night that were supposed to send earlier in the day.

i use this to send outbound emails to targeted lists of prospects. I specify the template and whoosh, off the emails go. I can get full analytics and integration into my CRM

I wish the pricing was a little more attractive. compared to other outbound email tools, there's not much reason to pay for this vs using a free service.

Nothing. Avoid this service - otherwise, you will lose your time and money.

3 leads over the 6+months period. One of them was our customer already. The quality of leads is beyond any expectations.

I like that I can easily post information and the software converts it to a useable email.

A little hard to navigate at first, but easy once you use it

It was frustrating overall using Persist. I don't like anything about it.

The lack of robust Gmail integration is what I like least about Persist.
