EngageBay Erfahrungen

Vorteile

It's much simpler when You have a good defined and flexible CRM with an Email marketing tool as one service. CRM is especially good and informative, designed mostly for returning clients.

Nachteile

Email builder should be better. The campaign dashboard is good but can be improved. Technical support is too pushy and offers things and options that are not needed.

Moosend

Gründe für den Wechsel zu EngageBay

Moosend has several good options but they started to make some changes and increase prices.

Vorteile

This app is the best way to track your sales, leads, tasks and people. It has a lot of features, but I use it mostly for the task tracking. It is easy to use and the CEO is very responsive to feedback. You can track your sales, leads, tasks, and people. And if you want to track a list of customers, you can create a list and use their email addresses to track sales and leads.

Nachteile

It's a very wide range of software and I think I use almost all of its features, my overall evaluation is positive because if you have a decent internet connection and a browser that works smoothly, you can control it from anywhere in the world.

Vorteile

The customer service is very good whenever there is a problem you can write in the chat and you will be helped.

Nachteile

Some features are missing when you work with any software because there is never a 100% fit of your needs otherwise there wouldn't be so many different offers. But engagebay is helping us with CRM wonderfully. The system could look a little more modern but its just a small thing.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu EngageBay

We were convinced by the demo-appointment

Vorteile

Engagebay is far less expensive than Hubspot, but with most (if not all) the important features. This was very important for us as a small business. We use so many of the CRM functions, from creating marketing funnels, to email automations, tagging, tracking, appointment setting with our sales team, and many others.

Nachteile

There are parts that are slightly clunky (like email sequences), but nothing too bad.

Keap is more expensive with less features. Most importantly Keap does not let you add tracking pixels to landing pages for anything other than Google and Facebook.

Keap

Gründe für den Wechsel zu EngageBay

Engagebay is far more budget friendly, which is important for our startup.

Vorteile

The funnels, deal tracks, email lists, and marketing automations, among other components, are very easy to use. Set up was very simple and includes email tracking to help keep prospect communications in one place. Customer support is extremely responsive via chat and email as well!

Nachteile

If you are looking to connect your CRM to a million gadgets or tools, this is probably not the CRM for you. It has webhooks available, but it does not integrate natively with most tools out there (like a Hubspot or Salesforce would).

Cheaper, better customer service.

Vorteile

[SENSITIVE CONTENT] has done an amazing job at dealing with any customer support issues in a timely, efficient, and professional manner. If I had any future questions, I would be delighted to be assigned to him.

Nachteile

There was nothing of note to mention for this section. All issues were fixed simply and efficiently.

Vorteile

Meager the duplicated e mail address immediately and can see the result of import easily.

Nachteile

Some of the original category can not change.Ex, I would like to make "Email" category mandatory but can not.

Vorteile

the fact it joins CRM to email marketing to website analytics and excellent support

Nachteile

nothing really, support is exceptional as well as the features.

Vorteile

It is amazing to me how feature-rich the platform is at the cost. More features and functionality than some of the 'big guys' for a fraction of the cost. It is easy to use and train clients on the system, so that is ALWAYS a huge plus for us.

Nachteile

Learning curve at first just to understand how it works differently from other systems, but that is not necessarily a con of EngageBay because that is the same for every new platform as each has their own little intricacies.

Vorteile

Easy of use, easy of implement, easy of integrate!

Nachteile

Webinar features, landing pages does not support reusable headers and footers, no option to build own templates.

Vorteile

It offers lots of features that a small but growing business can access. The support team are incredibly helpful (and quick to respond) if you ever have trouble figuring something out. There are also plenty of free resources such as articles and videos.

Nachteile

Yes, there are some features such as the ability to view what list(s) a contact belongs to from their profile in the marketing hub, and the ability to forward tickets to other emails in the service hub. Some tasks require work-arounds to accomplish. The support team gladly take suggestions for improvements though, and the program is always improving.

Vorteile

I love the marketing automation, landing pages, email broadcast feature of the tool. Above all, I love the pricing of the tool. Early-stage startups like us who have no marketing budget, but still want to initiate marketing will love it.

Nachteile

List management needs improvement. But, I am confident that they will improve it for sure.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu EngageBay

EngageBay is a cost-effective tool, simply put alternative to super expensive Hubspot

Vorteile

Easy to deploy and use. Very fast and effective support. Additional requests are developed and issued bugs are fixed almost instantly. I have never seen this fast development capability before in any other software before.

Nachteile

It would require to develop some additional features for ticket management. But I am sure they would do that instantly after reporting. They have done that to my requests before within 1 day.

Freshdesk

Gründe für den Wechsel zu EngageBay

ngagebay provides much more function in its free version.

Vorteile

The platforms has a lot of features (we are mostly using the marketing side of it). Their customer support is quick to respond, open to suggestions and tries implementing fixes and new features asap. Once you get used to using it, building landing pages is smooth and quick.

Nachteile

Automating posting on socials (e.g. LinkedIn) didn't work very well for us. Some features could be better documented/explained (e.g. custom fields and connection to forms & filtering, email reporting), so that you don't need to contact their customer service. On the positive side, the customer service is very responsive so most questions get answered quite quickly.

Vorteile

Really proactive when we ask for any update. Very responsive. Really friendly team. Easy to use.

Nachteile

There is nothing to add here but the form has to have 40 characters!

Vorteile

Engagebay has everything one needs from a CRM and then some. We previously used Hubspot and in terms of functionality, there is not much difference between the two. But in terms of value for money Engagebay is so much better. In addition, customer support is really second to none. I have never had an issue that they were unable to solve almost immediately. The sales pipeline system works perfectly as does the contact management.

Nachteile

In terms of cons the only aspect I would suggest is that at time the UX is not as intuitive as one would like,e However, the customer support and the value for money make up for any deficiency in this area.

Vorteile

I love how EngageBay has everything in one program. You can add contacts, which could be potential new users for new services. You can create email templates which are very neat and easy to do. You can track emails sent out and see which contacts opened them. Etc.

Nachteile

One thing that can be integrated is adding a calendar view straight onto the email templates, so that people can click on a day and time and schedule appointments. (Instead of taking to a different page)

HubSpot Marketing Hub und Commence

Gründe für den Wechsel zu EngageBay

The ease of use and layout of EngageBay were one of the main reasons I chose Engagebay over other products.

Vorteile

The ability to create custom fields that suit the unique approach of clients is excellent. The interface is intuitive and a number of sales people have commented that it is very easy to use and update deals. The support is excellent and fast. You get almost instant responses on chat. Also if you make a suggestion, they are quick to incorporate it if it has value.

Nachteile

Having more detailed documentation would definitely help. However the almost always available chat and quick responses goes a long way to offset this. I would like to see the ability to be able to standardise dashboards across all users centrally as opposed to having to create them on each users instance.

Vorteile

I love that Engagebay is a very intuitive UI and simple to use even for beginners. It has all the features that a mid size business or a startup will require. The chat support is the cherry on the cake.

Nachteile

The pricing could have been better. After a certain contacts, the pricing becomes too costly.

Vorteile

Engagebay is easy to use and the support team is always available. Thanks for creating this

Nachteile

The basic version is super-powered. No complaints but some limitations are pushing to Growth plan.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu EngageBay

More suitable and integral solution.

Vorteile

1. Easy to use, even for newbies
2. Excellent support and walkthroughs.[SENSITIVE CONTENT] answers all questions even via email.
3. Smooth functioning once you get the hang of things.
4. Easy to implement no matter what website you use. I used it both on my custom designed Laravel site as well as on Wordpress.

Nachteile

1. Templates for landing pages and emails are poor. You're almost always better off starting from scratch and creating one or cloning a URL.
2. For beginners, the system and workflow is hard to master, especially because their Youtube training videos are amateur and boring.

Vorteile

In the beginning I appreciated the price of what I was getting for what I was paying. My marketing manager seemed to be happy and I saw there were a ton of products I wasn't using, but was looking forward to implementing in time. There are several different areas that are organized into sections, which are helpful, as long as you know what you are looking for. The support is steller. Each time I used the live chat ont the site, I was helped very quickly. [SENSITIVE CONTENT] is a superstar on the webchat and always had answers to my questions.

Nachteile

I quickly found out that my marketing manager was limited by functionality. She said there were several features that limited her ability to create an amazing template, or at least fulfill the needs of what I was hoping to achieve. I also didnn't like that each time I added someone to the system, they had to pay for access to my account. I have employees and a lot of freelancers that I was hoping to use, but they certainly wouldn't pay to work on my acccount. Once I started adding a few, the prices got to a place where I wasn't comfortable any longer. It was probably still more competitive than other software of similar caliber, but I wish we would have started with me knowing what I was getting into. Had I known the price up-front for adding multiple users, I would have considered this against others with a different perspective.
