Editor’s Bottom Line of ActiveCampaign

ActiveCampaign offers an Enterprise plan but its features, pricing and subscription model is all geared towards small to midsized businesses. The platform offers considerable functionality, especially for its price, a highly intuitive user interface welcoming the uninitiated, helpful notifications to build properly-functioning workflows and the ability to subscribe or cancel your plan with no setup costs or termination fees. The cheapest plan, Lite, can be used for up to three users for only $9 per month - far below any other marketing automation vendor. ActiveCampaign also offers a free trial, which many of its rivals in the marketing automation space don’t do. All that points to a solution that aims to ease users into marketing automation.

What about the quality of features? As mentioned, they’re useful for the price, but they can accomplish a fair bit in their own right. ActiveCampaign’s email marketing and newsletter features include a drag-and-drop interface, email triggers, templates, image hosting, A/B testing, dynamic content and responsive design. Contacts and leads can be segmented by contact data, campaign interactions, website activity and demographic information for targeted campaigns and automations. ActiveCampaign also tracks email and website activity for real-time interaction insights and reports for trends and campaign performance.

The marketing platform includes a CRM with sales automation. The CRM includes an activity timeline, drag-and-drop sales pipelines, contacts’ profiles augmented with social and behavioral data and automations. ActiveCampaign offers integrations with over 300 third-party applications ranging from CRMs, developer tools, content management, analytics and more. Its Plus and Enterprise plans offer one-on-one training and in-depth onboarding and its online resources include a knowledge base with training articles and video guides and community forums. Overall, ActiveCampaign is a credible, capable marketing automation solution at an astonishingly fair price. Whether you’re a marketing newbie getting your feet wet or an established business seeking a scalable, low-cost yet nimble and powerful tool, ActiveCampaign delivers the goods and helps you along in a format anyone can understand.
