Kit Reviews: 4.4/5 — Solid Choice

The best thing about ConvertKit is that it is novice friendly and has easy navigation. It has tons of pre-built email templates, landing pages, and form templates that you can use after minor modifications. It also has an intuitive list management feature. You can add them individually or in bulk, and they can also subscribe to your list using your landing page and form. Later, you can organize them by tag, category, and source.

It has all the features that I need for my email marketing. There is nothing to dislike.

I use its email newsletter feature to send offers and service updates to my customers.

User-friendly layout despite tons of features. Automations forced me to switch from MailerLite to ConvertKit. You can tag leads and send them to different funnels etc. Then send personalized emails using automations. Custom fields make these automations even more powerful. Cherry on the top is excellent customer support. Moving from MailerLite was very easy. Just import the list and you are good to go with ConvertKit.

It becomes pricey as your list grows. It has steep learning curve especially when you are just starting out on email automations. Their email signup forms are very basic where you can change font, background color etc only. This can be improved definitely.

Putting users in automation funnels. And I am using it as a transactional email platform too. I t tags users based on onboarding completion steps. Then we see where users are leaving the most so we improve that plus users are sent email to complete onboarding from that specific step.

It is free to start with upto 1000 contacts. Which is too good for any starting marketer.

As on Date Nothing much. I wish GUI good

ConvertKit, provides, cost effective email marketing solutions for beginner marketer. As beginners, cannot afford costly tools. Convertkit helps them.

ConvertKit has great automation and tagging features that make it easy to make the most of email marketing in your business.

I don't love the email design interface in ConvertKit. However, they have introduced more templates to make this a bit easier. The best option with ConvertKit is to focus on text-based emails.

ConvertKit makes it easy to automate email marketing, whether that's welcome sequences, automated sequences based on user activity, etc. It also makes it easy to organize your list so you can send more targeted campaigns based on where subscribers come from and how they interact with your emails.

Firstly, I really appreciate how intuitive and easy to use the interface is. Whether I'm creating email campaigns, setting up automation sequences, or managing my subscribers, everything is incredibly streamlined and straightforward.

While the platform provides basic metrics like open and click-through rates, I would like to see more advanced tracking and reporting features.

I'm able to create custom email sequences and send targeted content to specific segments of my audience. This helps me build stronger relationships with my subscribers and ultimately drive more conversions and sales.

Convertkit allows you to create landing pages that solve specific use cases for getting customers to your product. Without the convert kit I wouldn't be able to optimize my business.

What is least helpful with Convertkit is that I don't like that there aren't any login integrations with google or single sign-on capabilities. It's hard to remember passwords.

I mainly use convertkit for email marketing purposes. This help solves all the use cases I must address when trying to traffic customers to my landing page. My business has increased by over 30% by using convertkit.

Simple set up and easy to use. Also the emails dont drop into spam or the google promotions tab.

Nothing really. I've found it pretty easy to use

Stops my email content going into spam

Customer service and willingness to help

few dislikes, the only thing is the interface SOMETIMES glitches but every software is like that

Im connecting ConvertKit email automations to my landing pages for my business and cannot wait to see the results

Simple user interface that is easy to use. I also love the automations and how easy it is to duplicate sequences for new campaigns.

Only downside is I wish I could add a subscriber to a sequence from said subscribers main "profile" page.

ConvertKit allows me to send emails to my list via schedules, one-off broadcasts, or automations triggered by actions. I love the different options and appreciate the simplicity and how they've split up the features.

It automates all the processes very quickly and is very user Friendly.

Pricing can be lowered so more user can use it.

I used it for my Email Marketing campaign.

The tutorials and chat/email help are Great! Every time I ask a question, the representative responds quickly, with detailed information, AND includes links to additional resources, usually their very clear, step-by-step tutorials that include pictures and sometimes automations that you can copy and paste into your own account.

I haven't found anything I dislike yet - oh, I changed my web hosting and had to re-authenticate my domain to be able to send my broadcasts. This was a small speedbump but tech support and tutorials gave me all the information to complete that process quickly.

I like using ConvertKit so it's helping me enjoy writing emails and communications to my list. I LOVE the automations - the graphic interface allows me to clearly map out a series of steps. The tagging system is great for me. I have a few special interest groups and about once a quarter, I email my list and ask the members to pick their preferred interests by clicking a link, and then they're automatically tagged! (Well, they're tagged because I set up the integration following the tutorial!!) Also, A/B testing of headlines is super easy to use. I was always confounded by that but the way ConvertKit works it makes it really easy to see which headline gets the best open rates and response rates.

It's a great and simple tool that has helped me to create marketing campaigns super easily and with a high level of security and professional outlook

Is possible the paid plan might be a bit too expensive to my taste

Faster and well-tracked campaigns

Handy FAQs to solve how-to steps and on-time Custome Service chat support to answer questions about the products inside Convertkit, unlike another counterpart which provides a bot or delayed response.

The pricing is much expensive compared to Mailchimp and other marketing landing tool. If the user subscription is lowered, say $20 per month up to 1000 subscribers....

It is a great Automation builder with its user-friendly navigation templates to follow and build your form using custom fields readily available for easy usage and completion.

As a digital marketer, I have used a wide range of email marketing services and here is why I belive Convertkit is #1. Almost every other email marketing service has the same flaw: they attempt to be a 1-stop shop. Meaning they dilute their main service with alternate features. A jack-of-all-trades but a master of none. Convertkit simply hyper focuses on email and getting you the most in-depth data, making them the master of email marketing.

The downside of having a service that solely specializes in email means that you will have to integrate with a large number of additional services to complete your marketing system.

They provide very in-depth data and tracking regarding behavior, actions and reporting for email campaigns, automation and broadcasts.

The tagging feature is really great because we've been able to keep customers separated based on purchase or what they've signed up for. This way we can better target our emails. The automations/rules was a big game changer. Through that, we've automated so much in our business, which has saved our assistant a lot of time to be doing other important tasks for us. All around an excellent product. I can't imagine running a business without it anymore.

I would like it if more other products naturally integrated with Converkit so we didn't need to use a service like Zapier so much. It seems most other services naturally integrate with mailchimp or constant contact, maybe because those companies are bigger? I'm hoping as Convertkit grows, there will be a lot more native integrations.

It is helping us better organize our customers so they get the most relevant emails for their problem. It is helping us automate our business and better collect information from customers, which is helping us know our customer better.

- GDPR compliant privacy-focused tool - Offers forms & landing pages to collect subscribers - Simple & purpose oriented landing pages - User-friendly UI - Easy email import & migration

- Sends email to subscribers to confirm their subscription - Though it's free to start but becomes expensive as your list grows - Not offer to create landing pages from scratch - URL of the landing pages are so wired they could have had a separate domain for this

Convertkit helps me build relationships with my audience in the form of an email as well as generate leads for my business. It saved me more hours by simplifying my email marketing efforts.

I enjoyed the weekly training Convertkit offered to their community whereas, with ActiveCampaign, I enjoy the monthly calls with an account manager to help optimize the CRM system.

I did not like the cost per subscriber as the email list was projected to grow. I would have liked to have more monthly calls to talk about some of the issues that come up with optimizing the list.

At this time I am no longer using Convertkit. However, I still use their lead magnets to help optimize my website traffic and provide great content for my clients.

Email management and landing page builder

Nothing so far as all benefits are good.

Ability to send email timeiusly with no hassle. It has helped me with skill development through free webinars hosted by convertkit and the newsletters that they send has been of help

The Simplicity of using the Software and various opportunities to segregate users based on the funnel journey or our email engagements. However, what I love with this software is the email open rate which is always on a good note which means most of our emails are ending up in Inbox or Promotion folders. The creation f segmentation and usage of tags is also the best thing which I have used multiple times while using the software. Creating automation with convertkit is very very easy

Yeah, there is only one disadvantage in segmentation. Convertkit will count a user from the date of subscription, If he purchased a product on a specific month while creating segments and trying to segregate the particular month users It won't consider the user from the date of purchase, It will segregate based on the data of the user joined one. In the creator pro plan, there is a solution for it.

Email Reach is the biggest problem convertkit had helped us in solving, we found a lot of our emails are ending in inbox and also we have seen a clear difference in email open rate from day 1 itself. Email automation based on the funnel journey is one of the features which also reduced the lot of manual work. Also, the best thing with the convertkit is we are open to doing experimentation without disturbing the existing templates or setup which is also a good feature.

It's simple, straightforward, and incredibly user-friendly. It has a ton of functionality for no cost whatsoever and allows you to create multiple different assets for your business on the same platform rather than signing into 5 different ones!

I don't love that my forms and landing pages have a weird domain name because it's hosted on Convert Kit, but it's a small price to pay for a good program. Plus you don't really see the URLs when it's a "click the link" kind of situation

They're really helping with my lack of website-building knowledge. I never thought it'd be so simple to create a landing page or form for my customers, but it was absolutely easy to do... and even kind of fun!

Converkit is best for automating the campaigns as well for best email campaign creation here the best thing is that we can create the landing page or thank you page as well and use that for remarketing purposes which is not available in most of the tools

Needs complete customization for users, like predefined templates or rules to define in the campaign so that we can use it to the maximum optimization of the campaigns

The main benefit i am getting from the converkit is the easy creation of emails or most helpful in creating the remarketing campaigns, so that i dont want to create multiple campaigns here

Automations and sequences are easy to set up.

It's a bit pricey, but it really is a good investment to build your list.

Growing my email list with sequences and automations.

The best thing about this tool is that it has a free version and it is super easy to use. Along with this, all its other features are also very good. You can create any landing page or form in less than 1 minute using its pre-built templates. It has pre-built templates for email newsletters too. You can send an email newsletter to your customers in just a few clicks. You can set a sequence email for a campaign and see the report in the dashboard. Its automation feature is very easy to use. On Convertkit, you can also add your products and earn money by selling them. Along with these awesome features, it has easy-to-understand documentation, a supportive community, and CreatorUniversity. From time to time, they also send information about learning materials and new products through email.

This tool has one drawback. If I use its API in a form of a WordPress page builder like Elementor and anybody subscribes to my newsletter using that form, it will not send any confirmation email to that person. It will directly add that person as a confirmed subscriber. This drawback can increase the chance of spamming.

I use this tool to collect email addresses, generate leads, and send newsletters & offers to my email subscribers.

The interface is clear, especially for the creation of targeted, automated follow-up sequences that are ideal for lead nurturing.

The message creation is not quite as full-featured as MailChimp, but it reinforces the idea of keeping messages simple and I appreciate that.

I use ConvertKit for my business, especially for my weekly emails called Luscious LInks. I also use ConvertKit with clients for whom I create automated follow up sequences.

Lots of features to target different customers. Plus easy to use, and affordable compared to other ESP. And the best part is your broadcasts inbox. Compared to other ESP, this is my pick.

I really do not have anything I dislike about Convertkit, as there have been no issues, and every broadcast we do goes out quickly and inboxes. You could offer more optin pages.

We are solving getting mail getting delivered and being able to put together an email quickly. Plus being able to easily upload customers from Woocommerce and other ESP easily

The ability to create and sell digital products. This feature has created a way for my business to earn additional revenue. They've also made it easy to create upsell sells.

The number of templates. Although they have quite a few, it would be great to have hundreds of templates to choose from .

I can create a lead magnet in a matter of minutes. It's also easy to create sequence emails and automation. The most important benefit for my business is the tagging that allows me to segment my customers based on what they like.

Convertkit is so easy to use. Their support is wonderful and helps me fix any issues quickly and simply. I get great deliverability. It is easy to set up complicated funnels too and their tutorials are simple to apply.

The website can be glitchy at times. So sometimes just my weekly email takes me a while to write because the website isn't allowing me to scroll down or click a button or something.

Delivering content to my followers. Delivering freebies to interested followers. Weekly emails. Keeping track of my audience. I've also been able to host events through Convertkit which is wonderful.

Tailored very much for creative types. They speak the language that people like me understand (photographer turned coach). The automation interface is so much better than the other product I've been using for the past few years (and reviewed). Their support staff is very prompt and helpful (and kind!). It feels like they try really hard to look after their customers. As soon as I joined (paid for one of the plans), I felt heard and looked after.

There are some features that I requested when they asked me about what could be improved. The email template system could be improved by allowing the template selection for automation for example. Also, what's not there (compared to other EDMs) is the ability to add smart fields against a subscriber (e.g. time/date fields for appointments etc). I got around the problem by using Zapier so it's not a deal-breaker right now.

I use ConvertKit to send a weekly newsletter out to my list and I use it for lead generation (automated email sequence). Their email sequence builder is so easy to use. The automation interface is brilliant as well. Migrating from one email system to another can be super painful but Convertkit's interface made it possible to move complex automation in a day which was quite surprising.

I like that you can learn how to use this product for emails and landing pages. You click on learn and people who actually use it show you how. or you can go to the Creator University to learn. They have easy-to-learn videos. And other courses you can take. Very easy to use.

Nothing. I have no big problems with it as I just started out with it a month ago.

Learning how to create better emails, landing pages.

Convertkit can do so much more than Mailchimp and other email services. The way sequences work is the way my brain maps out email campaigns. Once you get the hang of it you'll stay with them forever.

A little difficult when getting into more granular tasks, such as restarting a sequence or applying rules. They also keep changing the menu structure and it's no longer intuitive.

Sequences and forms work so well with our Wordpress website. We are able to do much more than we were with Mailchimp.
