"Best marketing tool"
What do you like best about Constant Contact?

Constant Contact automation makes sending our weekly updates very easy to our clientele. I use CC daily for different types of segmented groups. My result is a well-organized and easy to maneuver through email which I link to many different web pages, including event reservations and ticket purchasing. Constant Contact is both easy to use and to be on the receiving end looking at the final result. I have had positive experiences with customer service as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

The only downside I have experienced, is when starting a new template, I may find one I like but wish to change a picture that was originally part of the template, and it is very difficult to do so. I am not sure why. And the background selection is not varied enough for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Constant Contact Advanced Automation"
What do you like best about Constant Contact?

Constant Contact Advanced Automation features are easy to use and user-friendly even for those who are not technical. Segmenting contacts and customizing email journeys is a big value-add, which leads to higher engagement and conversion rates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

The only downside is that the automation functions, though improved, are still a bit weaker than with alternatives like ActiveCampaign or Klaviyo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Must Have for Your Email Marketing"
What do you like best about Constant Contact?

Constant Contact has made it so easy for us to connect with our customers! The platform is user-friendly, and the variety of templates is a game-changer for those of us who want to create professional, impactful emails without starting from scratch. That option is there for those who prefer to design their own! I also love the ability to schedule emails in advance and automatically resend them to non-openers, ensuring our messages reach as many people as possible. It’s a great tool for any business looking to streamline email marketing! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

I can't think of any issues I have had with this product. Of course, new template options are always a plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solo Entrepreneur Sidekick"
What do you like best about Constant Contact?

As solo practice therapists, using Constant Contact Advanced Automation significantly streamlined communication processes like the welcome email sequence for new subscribers to my monthly newsletter and landing page sign-ups for my lead magnets. Also, having the ability of a brandkit makes creating templates quick and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

The primary drawback of using Constant Contact Advanced Automation is that if you need to edit a sequence and disable it by mistake, or if the sequence expires, you have to restart the entire email sequence process from the beginning. Depending on the number of emails, this can be pretty time-consuming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Basic newsletter functionality, consistent delivery/reporting, some limitation in templates & forms"
What do you like best about Constant Contact?

Haven't used advanced automation, just using the basic functionality for delivery of newsletters via email. Have opted out of texting function due to concerns over spamming my recipients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

The editing feature can be somewhat clunky, not allowing for image placement outside of the existing templates, or creating your own set preferences/template with font size, style, etc. I find myself having to redo a lot of the copied newsletters each time, which can be frustrating. Form backdrop/watermark feature doesn't exist, so limited polished look. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Dependable Service for Email Communication"
What do you like best about Constant Contact?

Constant contact is a reliable way to disseminate information through eBlasts and get feedback through surveys. We have also used the event feature in limited capacities and generally have been happy with the experience. Constant Contact is something we use reguarly to keep out members in the loop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

Events are challenging to use for payment. We have many members who only want to pay with cash and check so they are unable to register online, which is problematic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"effective, albeit overwhelming and clunky"
What do you like best about Constant Contact?

Easy to import contacts and get started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

Editing emails - it changes font properties on me in the middle of typing a sentence withno rhyme or reason. Limited customization options in pop up signup forms (compared to the options available in landing pages, for example). No way that I can see to have a sign up form add a tag to the contacts that use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy for Emails, light on admin controls"
What do you like best about Constant Contact?

Constant Contact makes it VERY VERY easy to create email templates and send out a campaign. Stupid simple. Lists are straightforward, automated segments are fantastic, and tags are a great feature. Creating and mangaging sign-up forms is straight forward, and tie nicely into the automated email system for something as nice as a custom "thanks for signing up to mailing list X". The KBs are well written, and support staff has been helpful with the KBs proved insufficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

From an admin perspective, user access controls are VERY limited. Folks are either admins with full access (excluding billing), OR can only create campaigns. Further, there is limited integration with third party CRMs, particularly Blackbaud products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Constant Contact?

I am not a fan of having to include the Constant Contact logo in the footer on the lower-tier payment levels. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
