ActiveCampaign Erfahrungen

Es ist einfach zu bedienen und hat jede Menge Funktionen die meinem Business helfen zu wachsen

Eine leichte Übersicht über die Aktivität der einzelnen Abonnenten wäre hilfreich, um zu sehen, wer nicht aktiv ist und schon länger keine Emails geöffnet hat

Die Abo-Formulare sind sehr einfach zu erstellen und es gibt viele Connectoren zu CMS sowie anderen Marketing-Tools.

Das Tool hat Probleme mit WooCommerce und so werden Bestellungen fälschlicherweise 7h später in ActiveCampaign getrackt, wodurch Automatisierungen, welche die gekauften Produkte als Bedingung haben, nicht (stabil) funktionieren. Trotz mehrmaliger Nachfrage beim Support seit Monaten keine Lösung. Eine Verzögerung der Automatisierung ist zwar mithilfe von Zapier möglich, aber ändert nichts am Problem. Der Support ist leider nur auf Englisch.

Durch das einfache Anlegen von Automationen erhält der Webseitenbesucher alle wichtigen Informationen per Mouseclick.
Die Kampagnen lassen sich gut planen und die Kunden können gezielt mit Tags kategorisiert werden, so dass die Kampagnen zielgenau funktionieren.

Die Grafische Aufmachung könnte etwas schöner sein bei den Briefen.

Preis und bereitgestellte Funktionen sind prima. Daher hebt sich AC auch positiv von der meist teureren Konkurrenz ab. Da man eine Paketgröße und dadurch die entsprechenden Funktionen wählen kann, ist ein individuelles Angebot möglich - je nach Nutzen.

Die Benutzerfreundlichkeit ist für Anfänger nicht ganz einfach. Eine Marketing-Kampagne zum ersten Mal zu erstellen dauert daher am Anfang etwas länger. Im kleinen Paket sind nicht alle Funktionen enthalten, wodurch man genau überlegen sollte, was macht braucht und was nicht.

E-Mail Adressmanagement, NEwsletter Versand

Die Befehle in der AUtomatisierung sind teilweise nicth so verständlich

Newsletteranmeldung, Kampagnen. Mailsereien

Sehr komplex. Am Anfang geht es nicht ohne ausgelagerte Hilfe die beazhlt werden muss.

Die Möglichkeiten die Active Campaign uns bietet

Den recht hohen Preis, ab und an etwas zu kompliziert

Die Automatisierung erleichtert den Kontakt zu den Kunden und ich kann mich in dieser Zeit um andere Dinge kümmern.

Dazu kenne ich mich noch zu wenig aus. Für mich dürfte es noch intuitiver bedienbar sein, so dass ich alles alleine erledigen kann. Jedoch habe ich mich auch noch nicht so intensiv schulen lassen.

Formularfunktion, einfache Einbindung in Wordpress

Automation hat für mich nicht funktioniert

The tool seems complicated but easy to learn with a few tutorial. It can help you automate emails and create useful sequences. You can also do AB testing using the platform.

Although not a drawback, but a complimentary feature to build custom landing page would be very useful

It was relatively easy to get up and running with our first email marketing campaign. In addition, ActiveCampaign offers plenty of help videos and many training sessions to either refresh your memory or learn new ways to maximize the effectiveness of AC.

There is some redundancy of fields in the contact cards and despite all of the info on their website about segmentation and tags and the like, I still have a lot to learn about what I find to be a confusing topic.

Many features and functions, good integrations and straightforward user interface

Does not work with Gravity Forms WordPress plugin as you can't really track interactions on your website unless you tag everything. Not sure if this is true for other external form programs, but make sure you check it out. Also, you can't receive individual emails at the contact level. Any contact you wish to interact with has to be made into a "deal" before you can receive an email and truthfully this requires quite a bit of setup. AC gets a bit pricey when you start adding a decent amount of contacts, but it's cheaper at the beginning than Hubspot, Pardot-Salesforce, etc. It also doesn't track anonymous users to the site, a small issue but nice to have that history when someone actually converts.

I love that this software is just so easy to use on any level. Whether you are experienced with email marketing and automation or if you are new to the team and have never used it before. It's a simple click and drag or click to update etc. It makes it easy to get plenty of support from people on your team who just need to help to complete some simple tasks.

The thing I disliked about this software is it a little cluttered. There are so many features and it can be overwhelming if you are only using it for one specific purpose.

It's very complete, everyone says so, although I haven't been able to discover its full potential yet. The best thing is that the messages never reach the SPAM folder. Creating a campaign is not too difficult and you can segment very well by putting tags at each step of the process.

It is very complete, everyone says so, but I have not been able to discover its full potential because it is not intuitive or friendly. It has a very high learning curve. The interface is a bit ugly, there really is a lot of room for improvement. 500 contacts is very little for the Lite version.

ActiveCampaign is an all-in-one solution that is quite extensive and complete. The best thing about it is that you can do some much with just this one software application.

Because it is so complex there is a significant learning curve. It is also very pricy if you have a large list of contacts.

I love the automation process you have created and the ease of use and creation of automated emails with different events.

I rememeber first starting it was hard to navigate parts like creating tags but once you know how to you're fine!

It's great to capture leads and automate everything. Automation tool is great and easy to use.

User interface could be more smooth but so far it's good. Also it is a bit more expensive than competitors.

Campaign flows are the most beneficial for us as we can do a lot with them and there is quite a lot of flexibility in building them.

The downside could be the lack of integration into other platforms such as Zoom webinars. Also, using forms cannot be as efficient, we also found that form fields are not as flexible as we would like.

ActiveCampaign is great for making and managing campaigns for my company

Sometimes the software doesn't work and takes a long time to load.

AC is a great solution, full of features that should be enough to cover Basic-To-Medium needs. It's very easy to use and the price is perfect for what you receive. Support is also great.

The reporting side of things is a bit limited, I miss better tools to report on what's going on in terms of campaign activations or simply status on deals and contacts.

What I like most about Active Campaign is for the incredible power it gives you, it is fairly simple to use. Active Campaign allows you to deploy the most complex and profitable email marketing strategies known today such as deploying Soap Opera Sequences. They have a very convenient mobile app that they improve every year. They are also run by passionate people, that care about making an impact. It also doesn't hurt that getting started with Active Campaign is very affordable.

What I like least about this software is the email editor is still fairly clunky to use. It's not terrible. But recently there have been a few other new contenders with much more fun to use email editors such as Convertkit. However, Active Campaign's power and development roadmap keep me using Active Campaign over Convertkit. Active Campaign integrates with almost everything.

A step up from most Email Marketing tools that brings a powerful Marketing CRM and automation system. Highly competitive against the enterprise grade platforms of Hubspot and Marketo. Brings much of the day to day functionality you will typically need and avoids a lot of the excess and bloat of the larger enterprise platforms.

Easy to setup and build automations and campaigns.

Very cost effective Marketing Automation CRM that integrates well with all other Enterprise tools

Field management and auto-fill functionality is lack.

Email/Templates builder while works well is very rigid and locks in to the system, requiring custom builds to be made inside the platform. Little to no documentation or functionality for importation of external builds.

This is high-end marketing automation at mid-market pricing. If you want to automate marketing to a high-degree and with great sophistication, AC allows you to do nearly anything - yet at a price point similar to email marketing tools with little or no automation. That's why I chose Active Campaign and why I stick with it.

For all of its technical sophistication, there are a few weak points around basics. Its email creation interface feels dated and the handling of image assets is clunky and horrid. Creating restore points and undo is flaky and unreliable. And what makes all this so bad is that users have logged these points for several years as top requests and AC has not addressed them. Instead they add fancy functionality. The basics of everyday use matter and the experience spoils the software for me.

The Customer Service is stellar, especially for being chat-based. As a previous HubSpot user (which is prohibitively expensive), AC comes pretty close to delivering all the essential features and the ease of use between the two platforms is night and day. AC is, for the most part, pretty intuitive. They also have better onboarding/training.

There are some seemingly very basic features that are missing. That being said, I'm able to create 'workarounds' to get what I need, but the workarounds do cause unnecessary work. Specifically, I can't automate task assignment at the Contact or Account level so I have to create and organize wholly unnecessary Deals and Deal Pipelines to do what I need to do. The other (minor) frustration is not being able to customize/save multiple views. I can add columns to views and that will stay put, but the default ordering of pretty much every page is alphabetical. For instance, when I switch the Contact view to sort by Date Created, if I navigate into a contact record or another page, the list reverts to being sorted alphabetically. Same with the Automations page, etc. I want to set custom sorts that are my own defaults (preferably multiple custom sorts/views). And I want it to remember to show me records by the 100s, not 20 at a time. It's little stuff, I know, but the constant extra clicks does get tedious.

I was with MailChimp. I moved to ActiveCampaign for the features that I am most fond of and use the most. Those are list segmentation, CRM, their existing recipe to help build automation, the automation functionality, in-depth segmentation, and tracking every move a contact makes.
The transition was seamless; ActiveCampaign moved my whole list for me. I was a bit overwhelmed at first because of the high level of functionality. But, their customer service and support are the best I've encountered in any company that I deal with to run my business. I love them!

I don't love the functionality of the design elements in the Campaigns. Mainly, there is no way to set the overall design perimeters. So, every time you add a block, you select your font and have to reset the design. The time making adjustments adds up.
