Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about the product and billing.
With Getresponse, you can send unlimited newsletters to 500 contacts free of cost. It also lets you connect your domain during the 30-day free trial. But without domain warmup and tracking analytics, this free trial is quite limiting for small businesses. A better alternative would be to sign up with Mailmodo. Besides unlimited templates and campaigns, it also provides you the complete analytics suite. Track opens, clicks, bounce, submissions, and unsubscribes at no cost.
If you're an individual looking to start a newsletter, then Getresponse is a suitable email marketing platform for you. During the 30-day free trial, you can experiment using the drag-and-drop creator and predesigned email templates. But if you're a small business looking to kickstart email marketing, use other Getresponse alternatives. Mailmodo, for example, lets you track your emails, improve your deliverability, and warm up your domain to help you get more opens, clicks, and subscribes.
Emails from GetResponse are known to land in the Promotions tab in the user's inbox. Besides, its limited pricing plans and poor deliverability encourage users to look for alternatives. Email marketing platforms like Mailmodo offer expert deliverability consultation to ensure your emails reach your customers' inboxes every time. Tap into the Mailmodo SMTP, that’s consistently warmed up for higher email deliverability.
Zoho Campaign offers a free trial for 14 days where you can access all the features and send up to 6,000 emails to 2,000 contacts. However, if you find the trial plan too brief and are looking to get your skin in the email marketing game, you can consider taking advantage of Mailmodo’s free trial plan.
If you’re not able to build complex workflows with Zoho Campaigns, you’re not alone. A lot of customers have complained about its limited automation capabilities. If you’re looking for an automation solution which offers you pre-made workflows, custom triggers, and endless integrations, consider using Mailmodo.
Zoho Campaigns has a poor deliverability rate, which causes your users’ emails to land in spam. Want to achieve better email deliverability? You can rely on Mailmodo's dedicated servers, warmed up domain, and suppression management strategies.
