Frequently Asked Questions

ActiveCampaign takes a long time to load pages and emails. That may be due to slow or overloaded servers. It can be frustrating and not a pleasant feeling for any email marketer. To ace email marketing, businesses prefer ActiveCampaign alternatives like Mailmodo for instant sending and automating. You can send emails and download campaign reports without delays with Mailmodo.

According to Email Deliverability Report 2022, 11% of emails sent via ActiveCampaign go to spam, which adversely impacts deliverability. Email marketers, for this reason, prefer ActiveCampaign alternatives like Mailmodo for email deliverability management via domain warmup, email list cleaning, and detailed deliverability reports. We also have email deliverability experts on board to help you land in your users’ inboxes.

Compared to other email marketing tools like Mailmodo, ActiveCampaign is expensive. It’s counted among the highest-priced email marketing platforms. However, its price-to-performance ratio is poor owing to low email deliverability rates, emails going to spam, and basic automation workflows. Mailmodo, on the other hand, is worth every penny as it is 3-4 times more affordable than ActiveCampaign and has a bevy of advanced reporting and automation features to offer.

To ensure that the data you wish to keep from ActiveCampaign will still be accessible after the migration is complete, import contact data into Mailmodo. Only import clean lists, though, and send a mail to an engaged list in the first go for testing purposes.

Mailmodo’s paid plans are 3-4 times more affordable than ActiveCampaign’s paid plans. Not only do you get an improved price-performance ratio, but you also receive well-managed email deliverability with Mailmodo.
