Bold Addictions review for Omnisend Email Marketing & SMS
Sept. 10, 2020
Seems like all the email marketing platforms are a bunch of crap. Nothing stands out as "best" for any of them (mailchimp, klayvio, omnisend, sendinblue etc..) the free plan with omnisend shouldn't exist - this is a red flag and major turnoff. This is what you get with the free plan: 15,000 emails per month with a limit of 2,000 emails per day Up to 3 active Signup forms Possibility to send Scheduled campaigns Drag-and-drop Email Editor Mobile ready email templates Discount Content Block for your emails Segmentation Sales reports Website tracking (with data history for 1 month) Click Map If you want to send automatic emails (abandoned cart, birthday emails, welcome messages and more) you have to pay for the "standard plan" which should've been included in the free plan. Here is what you get for $16 per month or $13 per month when you pay for the entire year: Standard pricing plan provides you with everything you get on a Free plan, plus: x12 sending limits, check the pricing page to see how many email credits you will get for the number of contacts you currently have Automation Workflows (to send abandoned cart, birthday emails, welcome messages and more) Automation reports A/B test campaigns SMS channel for campaigns and for automation Product Picker and Product Recommender Interactive email elements Set-up up to 20 Segments Unlimited Signup forms with the possibility to add additional fields Wheel of Fortune Website tracking (with data history for 3 months) Multiple users for your account 24/7 live chat support Many of the great 3rd party app integrations, such as Smile, LoyaltyLion, Yotpo, ReCharge, etc.) I would've considered paying for the standard plan since Omisend seems to be the cheapest email marketing platform (between Klayvio and Omisend) but when I saw I couldn't send basic "welcome" emails without paying $16 per month, I decided against it. I saw a few reviews that mentioned how you will end up paying Omisend way more than you need to, I guess this is a good example. I do not recommend Omisend, it's no better than the others - at least (with other platforms) you can send a free "happy birthday" or "abandoned cart" email.
