iContact helps me be successful at my job
Pros
iContact is a very user friendly product for anyone. My company sends thousands of emails a week and we are always very pleased with how easy it is to create an email and send it immediately. I also really enjoy the dashboard, it helps me keep track knowing what emails have been sent and what emails I have yet to send. i also appreciate that iContact technology can delete any duplicate people in a contact list. That saves me time from having to go through thousands of people making sure I don't have any duplicates. My customer support is also amazing. My iContact rep. is always so good about getting back to me when I have questions or concerns.
Cons
Sometimes when I am creating a contact list in iContact, I have several excel sheets I need to upload to that one contact list...iContact doesn't let me select multiple excel sheets to upload at once, I have to do one at a time which takes a lot of extra time for me to do.
I also wish I could delete more than one contact list at once.
On the "upload contact" box, I want to be able to see the whole title of my contact list. Sometimes iContact cuts off my list title if it's too long, I would like to see the whole title...
Response from iContact
Hi Lauren! We sincerely appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback. Our support team loves helping companies like HireLive who make such a tremendous positive impact. As for the concerns you raised about list uploading, we are taking all product improvement comments very seriously and are working to continually improve our product. We currently do allow you to have 5 concurrent uploads at any given time, but you must start the uploads one at a time. And you are correct, we cannot upload multiple sheets from one excel file. We have noted this potential feature, along with multiple list deletion, and title expansion ¿ and we realize its importance. Thank you again and have a great day!

A run for your money (for SMB)
Pros
So, my client was trying to decide between iContact, Mailchimp and other SMB email tools and decided to start the project with iContact -iContact has a really user-friendly interface that's easy to navigate, even for people who aren't super tech-savvy.-They offer decent customer support, and we were able to get in touch with a real human whenever we needed help or had questions (we've put them to the test) -The reporting and analytics features are really robust, and it was easy to track our email campaigns and see how they were performing.The pricing was pretty parred with other SMB email tools so we felt like we were getting good value for our money.
Cons
1)While the interface is user-friendly, there are some limitations when it comes to design customization2) We weren't able to make our emails look quite as polished as we might have liked.3) It can take a little while to get used to the platform if you're used to more visual ones 4) if you're after a marketing automation syle hubspot , iContact won't offer that level of sophistication

iContact is easy enough to use for our mass email needs, but I feel that it could be better.
Pros
The new email templates are nice and easy to use once you get the hang of it. The analytics and insights are helpful in gauging how many people are seeing our messages. I also like the ease with which we can add and remove contacts.
Cons
The new templates are easier to use than the original email layout, but there are an awful lot of steps in the formatting. I feel like that process could be streamlined. Also, I understand that our account doesn't allow for tons of file storage, but it would be nice if the individual file/asset upload size was a bit bigger. I also think that there could be a more user-friendly way to re-verify contacts. We have over 8,000 contacts we email regularly but the process to re-verify contacts to keep our lists healthy is really confusing.

Good email app
The customer service was excellent and helpful, the tools are user-friendly and easy to navigate. The system is very adaptable and allows me to customize my campaigns according to my needs. The reporting features also gave me access to the necessary data to make informed decisions regarding my campaigns. Overall, I have had a positive experience with iContact.
Pros
Confluence impressed me with its capability as a collaborative platform that facilitates teamwork in creating, sharing documents, thoughts, and strategies. It has a user-friendly layout that is easy to use and its adaptability to team's requirements is beneficial. The search feature that scans all the content and documents was particularly useful in finding the information required quickly.
Cons
A downside of Confluence is the steep learning curve. It can be challenging to learn all the features and how to utilize them efficiently.

Review of iContact
Pros
IContact is great for creating and managing email campaigns. It has an easy-to-use drag and drop editor which makes it easy to create engaging emails. You can also set up automated emails to send at certain times or to certain groups of people. I also like the analytics it provides, so I can see who opened my emails and track the performance of each one. IContact also has support options which make it easy to get help with any issues I may have.
Cons
I don't like the cost of iContact, as it can be quite expensive for businesses with limited budgets.
