UPDATE: While I appreciate that they ultimately refunded my subscription after deleting the app, they did so because of my negative review. I liked the previous app for my SMS correspondence. I found this one hard to navigate and too many hidden costs. It just wasn't for me, you may have a different experience. Very disappointed and feels scammy. After deleting the app, the monthly sms subscription is still active, so be sure to go to your store settings and cancel that subscription. I learned this the hard way and support was not helpful.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We completely understand how frustrating this situation must have felt, especially if you assumed that uninstalling the app would automatically stop all charges. We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience this caused. To clarify, SMS subscriptions are fully managed on the customer side and do not cancel automatically when the app is uninstalled. This is why the charges continued, the SMS plan remained active inside your Omnisend account until manually cancelled. Regarding your interaction with our support team, we did provide clarification on how SMS billing works and the steps needed to cancel the subscription. That said, we’re sorry if this wasn’t as clear or helpful as it should have been. Our team will contact you shortly to revisit the matter and offer further guidance where needed.

the Omnisend logo can only be removed from your Forms and Campaigns if you are subscribed to one of our paid plans, either the Standard or Pro plan. understandable unfortunate
Thank you for sharing your feedback and for understanding how our plan structure works. The Omnisend logo is included on Forms and Campaigns in the free plan, while removing it is available with our paid Standard and Pro plans — a setup common across most marketing platforms. We appreciate your understanding and hope to see you continue growing with Omnisend.

Wit benutzen die App seit Jahren und sind mit den Grundfunktionen zufrieden. Läuft rund und stabil. Allerdings sind die Design- und Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten ziemlich beschränkt. Ein Grund für uns über einen Wechsel nachzudenken. www.blanda-brauty.com
Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, uns Ihr Feedback mitzuteilen — und noch mehr dafür, dass Sie uns all die Jahre die Treue gehalten haben. We're really glad to hear that you're satisfied with the core features and that the app has been running smoothly and reliably for you. That said, we’re sorry to hear that the design and customization options have felt limiting. Our senior support specialist has already reached out to learn more about your experience. We'd love to better understand the specific challenges you're facing — whether there's anything we can do to help with your current setup or areas we should improve going forward. Your insights are incredibly valuable, and we'd really appreciate the chance to turn things around.

The templates are stale. Plus their list cleanup is vague and over priced. They charged us over $150 to perform a cleanup that did not remove ANY names. Then they became difficult when we asked for a refund.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear that our cleaning tool didn’t meet your expectations. Your input is important to us, and we take it seriously as we continually strive to provide the best possible service. After a thorough review of your case with our Billing and Deliverability teams — both following your communication with our support team and this review — we found that your list contained a large number of disposable email addresses, primarily from Amazon. These contacts are categorized as undeliverable, as they cannot receive emails, and were appropriately flagged by our system. Based on this, the list cleaning was completed as intended. Please note that the cleaning service has been fulfilled and, as such, cannot be reversed. Since the tool performed as expected and the results were delivered as agreed, a refund would not apply in this case. However, we do want to understand your concerns better. If there are specific aspects of the cleaning you believe were not handled correctly, we’d truly appreciate your feedback so we can investigate further. To assist with next steps and save you time, our support team has created a segment of the flagged contacts. You can use this segment to easily take neccesery actions. Again, thank you for your feedback — we’re here to help however we can, and we’d be happy to take a second look with more details from your side.

Omnisend is a decent email platform—less intuitive and feature-rich than Klaviyo, but it gets the job done. However, pricing changes have made it far less appealing. They charge for all contacts, even if they’re not subscribed to email or SMS. Essentially, you’ll be billed for anyone who has interacted with your site, regardless of whether they opted into communications. In our case, we were only emailing ~ 30% of the contacts we were being charged for—effectively doubling our costs just for them to store a simple list of our customers and people who abandoned cart. Their pricing structure feels unreasonable, and when we raised concerns, their response was dismissive. We’re planning to switch platforms once our migration plan is ready. It’s unfortunate because Omnisend had potential, but their pricing strategy makes it hard to justify staying.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand how important pricing transparency and fairness are when choosing an email marketing platform, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify. To address your concern, Omnisend bills for both subscribers and non-subscribers but not for unsubscribed contacts. Non-subscribers are individuals who have interacted with your store — whether through making a purchase, abandoning a cart, or creating an account — but have never subscribed to marketing communications. While you can't send promotional emails to them, they remain eligible for most automated messages that help drive engagement and revenue. We truly value your business, which is why our billing team has already reviewed your account and suggested a more customized plan tailored to your needs. Additionally, our senior support specialists have provided further insights into our pricing options to find a solution that works best for you. If you’d like to continue the conversation, we’d be happy to explore additional ways to support your goals. We appreciate the time you’ve spent with Omnisend and hope to find a pricing solution that works for you.

This used to be one of my favorite email apps - until they stopped providing customer service that's not an AI bot.

Currently, I would not recommend this app due to a serious issue that I have repeatedly brought to the attention of the support team, which they have refused to address meaningfully. I have been asking for weeks, and their solutions focus on what others are doing wrong rather than what Omnisend can do to fix the issue. A specific problem to be aware of is that when sending coupons with a dark background, the expiry date, even when set to a light color, can sometimes turn black and become invisible. This causes significant confusion for customers and results in lost sales. If I could easily switch to another platform, I would have done so a while ago. Omnisend, please get your act together and address this issue.
Hello there, Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration caused by the issue with the coupon expiry dates. We understand how vital this is for your business, and we regret that our previous responses haven't adequately addressed your concerns. We take your feedback very seriously and are committed to thoroughly investigating this problem to find an effective solution. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we want to ensure our service meets your expectations. A senior representative has contacted you to discuss this matter further. Please respond to their email at your earliest convenience. We are dedicated to resolving this issue and improving our service to prevent similar problems in the future.

Been a customer for several years, happy at first then: - Omnisend pushed a review widget on all my product pages without my approval - showing zero reviews on each product page (I have thousands of very good reviews) impacting my conversions - Omnisend keeps increasing their prices at a very high rate (you basically have no choice other than paying more - and they how annoying it is to switch to another provider) Their customer support is nice and reactive most of the time so I add one star
Hello there, Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for the issues you've experienced, particularly with the review widget and the price increases. We understand how these matters can impact your business, and we regret any inconvenience this has caused. We take your concerns about the review widget seriously. It seems that the widget was not added without your approval. Our team has investigated the situation and has reached out to you with their findings. Regarding pricing, we understand your frustration with the increases. These adjustments help us continue to improve our services and offer better features, but we acknowledge the need to balance this with providing value to our long-term customers. A senior representative has contacted you to address the situation in detail. Please respond to their message at your earliest convenience.

Seems like the app keeps having new and more complicated issues, as the years pass. We have been using it since 2014, when back then everything used to work fine. Every update that added, just keeps creating issues that support seems unable to resolve. WELL DEAR DEVELOPER, Thank you for your kind reply and attention, but it seems that your team is unable after 7 weeks and 72 emails to solve the problem. Instead i have to endure talking to 7 different people "BEACUSE THEIR SHIFT IS OVER", AND EACH ONE sends me a 10page guideline to read. I would suggest either get a tech guy who understands to solve the problem or inform us that you are unable to fix the app. Again its a pitty after 10 years of using the app, each year you manage to degrade it with your updates. Update 6 Mar 2024: After 7 weeks you still haven't managed to resolve the problem, leaving us without any email communication with our clients.
Hello! Thank you for your ongoing commitment to Omnisend, and we truly appreciate your detailed feedback.

Potential to be a great service but the pricing structure is disgusting. To increase the price (in our case £60 to £152.40 per month) irrespective of how many emails are sent is quite underhand and they obviously now it. We don't want to bombard our customers so are often paying this amount to send one or two emails a month. Yes, we could possibly avoid some increases by constantly messing around with our email list, but why? Surely it would be better to charge for the amount of emails sent instead of how many people are on your email list?
Hello and thanks for taking the time to leave a review! We appreciate your feedback regarding our pricing structure. It's important to mention that our approach, although distinct, aligns with common industry practices. Charging based on the size of your email list is a standard model that ensures the sustainability and reliability of our service to our customers. We understand your concern about potential increases, especially if you're sending a lower volume of emails. However, our pricing is designed to cater to various business needs and usage patterns. We encourage you to explore the range of features our service offers, as they can contribute to maximizing the value of your subscription. Feel free to reach out to our support team; they are available to assist you in maximizing the benefits of our service and exploring our pricing options. They are available 24/7 and can be reached via In-app chat or email at [email protected].

We recently discovered when chatting to a customer that they didn't receive our latest SMS. Upon further checking, they didn't receive the last 9 SMS either, neither did most of our US customers. There was no notification of this within Omnisend, I had to check the customer record to see the SMS has failed. I guess it's in Omnisend's interest to keep the fees and not alert customers when their SMSs aren't delivered. Checking in with customer service, so far the only explanation I've been given is that we haven't verified our number. This is despite a) 9 of the 10 failed messages were before the date verification was required, b) we have never hit the limit set by number verification. Currently I keep getting the same answer from customer service whose only line seems to be to ask us to verify our number. I will keep pressing. Further investigation has revealed most emails end up in the spam folder too. What are we paying for here? At this rate I'll be asking for a full refund!
Hello there and thanks for taking the time to leave a review! Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. We understand that failed SMS deliveries can be frustrating and impact your marketing efforts. With this in mind, our team has investigated the issue thoroughly, and we have found that the only reason for your SMS not being delivered is indeed due to regulator limits in the US, as you mentioned in your review. We do our best to comply with all relevant regulations to ensure the highest deliverability rates possible for our customers. Therefore, we recommend verifying your phone number as soon as possible to avoid any future issues with SMS delivery. Our support representative has reached out to provide more information on the matter as well as to rectify the issue with email deliverability. We take all feedback seriously and will continue to work hard to improve our services and provide the best possible experience for our customers. If you have any further questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to our support team. Thank you for choosing Omnisend as your marketing automation platform.

They offered a free plan with 500 e-mails per month. That's what we needed. Then, they started charging me more and more every month based on the number of subscribers, regardless if they are active or not. When I complained about it, they told me to remove the subscribers even though we were not shooting any e-mails to them. That's shady. Even though we were paying, we couldn't remove their logo from the e-mails. They're always forcing you to upgrade and once you're in, the next plan goes from $50 to $80! The plans you get on Shopify are gone! UPDATE: This response is just BS. Your policy is not clear. You offered me a plan with 60k email per month and it doesn't show anything about the number of subscribers. I should be charged by the number of emails sent, not by the number of subscribers in my list. I had to pay for all subscribers even tho we shoot less than 100 emails.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We apologize for any frustration caused by our pricing structure. Our pricing policy is based on the number of billable contacts you have, and this may result in changes to the monthly cost as the list size changes. We strive to be transparent about this in our communications and on our website. In regards to your concern about inactive subscribers, we understand that it may seem unfair to be charged for them. However, we do need to account for them in our pricing structure as they are still part of your overall list size. This is the reason we do offer the option to remove those contacts to bring down the price. We believe this is a fair way to comply with our pricing policy and provide flexibility to our clients. Regarding the removal of the Omnisend logo: as we have checked your account, we found it possible to remove it from your emails. We would be happy to assist you with this if you still have any issues! We do offer different plans to suit the varying needs of our clients, and we understand that it may not be feasible for everyone to upgrade to a higher-priced plan. We will take your feedback into consideration as we continue to refine our pricing structure and offerings. Thank you for choosing Omnisend as your email marketing platform. We appreciate your business and will continue to work hard to provide you with a top-notch service!

I Paused my store and relaunched under an entirely different brand. The app no longer tracks all visitor activity, just selective activity of returning/ known customers. In that sense, its not helpful in antialiasing product potential or begin able to dispute if an information page(return and shipment policies)was viewed. Uninstalling and will continue to look for an app that that tracks all activity on the site
Hello there, and thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience! We're sorry to hear that using our app left you unhappy. Therefore, We'd like to apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. However, I'd like to inform you that the reason for this behavior is to track visitor activity that is relevant to the customer's purchasing journey. Our new tracking and logging architecture is here to help us achieve this goal. It enables us to extract a lot more data from the browsing session and integrate it into a lot more services within our app. Please keep in mind that we track user behavior on all store pages except those that require sensitive data input. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions! You can reach us at [email protected].

上周提交了问题,说是48小时内邮件回复,48小时内也回复了我,接下来因为问题还没有彻底解决,我已经重复发了两次邮件,已经过去一周了还没等到回复,感觉效率没有刚开始安装这个app的时候快了,最近用起来很不爽!

Very quick response on initial set up question. - I have been using this for a few months now and am seriously disappointed! Far too many emails are ending up in spam filters, these are regular customers I deal with pretty much monthly so it seems odd. Omnisends answer... it is yahoo & hotmail filters - but we are in Canada and 99% of them are gmail and the regular emails get through so - that answer doesn't wash.
Hello there and hank you for taking the time to provide your feedback! We have reviewed your recent conversations and located the one in which you were addressing deliverability concerns caused by a high bounce rate, but not spam. In fact, our Deliverability Team has found that the vast majority of them are indeed inactive Yahoo inboxes. We've discovered that 100 of the 108 bounced contacts are Yahoo inboxes. These contacts have been saved as a segment in your Audience. Overall, we've determined that your Audience comprises about 10 percent of Yahoo inboxes. A member of our support staff has reached out to you with additional information about this issue. Do not hesitate to contact our Support Team if you have any queries or require assistance. We are available 24/7 and can be reached by in-app chat or email at [email protected]. Have a wonderful day!

Fine app, poor support. Dont wanna help setup their app, so we actually can get the benifits. They refer to some Youtube etc. not a good customer experience. Reply to your reply 11 - May **He didnt help me set things up - I got a lot of links to guides etc. which is fine, but in a smaller business, you dont have time reading all these guides, so I still dont get the effect i wished I would get from Omnisend (But email marketing works, so I give 2 stars instead of my 1 star)
Hi, we're really sorry to hear about your experience. We can see that a Senior Support Agent was able to help set things up for you. Please get in touch if we can help support you with anything else. Thank you!

Update: Customer Service is great. But my review with pricing still stands. This is a great subscription to have for your store. But it comes with a huge price tag. For a small amount of contacts, the price has come to be over $150 USD a month.
Thanks for sharing your feedback! We totally understand that pricing is an important factor, and we appreciate you bringing this up. Our senior support specialist has already reached out to you with a more cost-effective plan that better aligns with your needs. We’ve also shared some helpful advice on managing your inactive contacts—by focusing on engaged subscribers, your costs could be even lower! We’d love the opportunity to work with you to ensure you’re getting the best value from our service. If you have any questions or need further assistance, we’re here to help!
