## Reviews

### "Great software if you know what you're doing\!" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *1 May 2020* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Relatively easy to use email software. Its tough to argue with 'free'\!
> 
> **Cons**: There is a lot more to running an emailing system than editing the emails. This is not equivalent to a service like Constant Contact or mailchimp that will pay attention to blacklisting IP addresses. However, if you can figure out these issues for yourself, then the software is excellent at kicking out customized emails.
> 
> Very good. Allows us to customize marketing emails and track clicks and opens.

### "The best affordable email marketing software with high potencial" — 5.0/5

> **Alfredo** | *15 June 2020* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to use and we can create funnels using subscribing pages as landing pages with forms.
> 
> **Cons**: Must develop easy to use landing page. By now we need some HTML experience to overcome this.
> 
> I am running a regular newsletter with 6000+ contacts and started some autoresponders to create a sales funnel.

-----

### "Pretty bad user experience" — 3.0/5

> **Marc** | *18 February 2021* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to set up campaigns and google analytics tracking
> 
> **Cons**: The HTML editor is hard to use and not intuitive for someone like a copywriter.

-----

### "Open Source FTW\!" — 5.0/5

> **Silva** | *10 April 2020* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We find phpList the best Open Source alternative to MailChimp. For first time users it takes a bit to get used to UI but with some practice it will be quite easy to start sending your newsletters while using a vast amount of features. Their documentation is great.
> 
> **Cons**: There is place for improvements in terms of UI and using the software has a learning curve for beginners.
