Performance of ActiveCampaign Platform Across Market Features

ActiveCampaign Platform Likes & Dislikes

Like

with the basic model, you have automations included and this feature is powerful to define and send email marketing campaigns in a lot of different situations

Like

Easy to use, global suppression capabilities, easy automations.

Like

The product is easy to use and they do listen to feedback and improve the product to make marketing easier.

Dislike

changes in the management model for new customers or contracts, more expensive and if you acquire a new license, there are differences with the version for previous years.

Dislike

Can't use our own fonts in the emails. Awful customer service. Worst experience of my career. We wanted to make a change in our plan before the billing. They said okay, kept us waiting until the billing period and then DID NOT perform the changes we wanted and charged what they wanted to charge. They said they would provide 5000 additional contacts for the trouble they caused. THEN they sent a payment link for the additional contacts.

Dislike

There are limitations when creating automations, and the rules are not always clearly defined.

    Jun 16, 2025
    With being in Australia and their support team being in the US there can be some delays and challenges when problems arise. However they are very responsive and try to support resolution to the issue. The community, help documents and videos are particularly helpful to self serving and the product is easy to use.
