Rastu Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
A consistent solution for transaction emails with a great option to define speed
The option to define the kind of speed we are looking at is valuable. For example, sometimes, we need to slow down for certain customers and do specific configurations, so we don't want to rush it. Or we can email the customer requesting to send it within two hours. So, if they send 2 million or 3 million, we can do it with SparkPost, which is not possible on SendGrid.
Manav Sharma - PeerSpot reviewer
A good software for email marketing that integrates well with other third-party software, but its UI should be improved
I have found two or three issues with Zoho Campaigns. If we add any email content, Zoho Campaigns takes a lot of time to review by the back end. Two years back, a client set up Zoom Campaigns, and the lead was not entered into the campaign. The flow and everything else was fine, but entering the journey or the campaign took time. My company lost a customer because it took two weeks to review the emails we entered into that content. Zoho Campaigns has to improve its UI because sometimes it won't load the campaigns, and the software is a little lagging. So that's why people have started moving to Zoho marketing automation instead of Zoho Campaigns. Zoho Campaigns should include immediate sync for the deals model because it's still not there. Whenever a lead is entered, it is immediately synced, but there is no immediate sync for the deals.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The option to define the kind of speed we are looking at is valuable."
"We can merge Zoho Campaigns with Zoho CRM and other applications. I think automation is the best feature of the product because it reduces manual inputs. It will work automatically and generate reports."
"The most valuable feature of Zoho Campaigns is its ability to set up chain campaigns depending on the user's reaction."
"It's a very simple solution for email."
"Zoho Campaigns is a good software for email marketing."
"It is a very reliable and stable tool."
"The solution generates a good return on investment."
"The out-of-the-box integration with all the other Zoho applications is the most valuable feature of the solution."
"Putting the campaigns together on Zoho is reasonably straightforward. They have a little campaign builder tool that works very well as long as you don't want the campaign to be too sophisticated."
 

Cons

"Implementing their services on the platform requires a lot of technical expertise."
"I would like the product to include a feature that shows website traffic similar to Mailchimp. I would also like to get user and customer activity on the website so that we can easily set campaigns according to customer interest."
"They need to improve their anti-spam capabilities."
"It takes a lot of work to get it set up the way you want. It's not an intuitive product. It takes coding work to get the sales process to work. That setup process could be simplified significantly."
"Its deliverability could be improved."
"The support team takes a while to respond to our request."
"My usage is limited to the basic features."
"Zoho Campaigns has to improve its UI because sometimes it won't load the campaigns, and the software is a little lagging."
"When we use Zoho Campaigns, our emails often get routed to the spam folder instead of the inbox. For example, people who use Gmail to receive our newsletter will often miss it because it was sent to their spam folder. Many of our clients aren't seeing our work. We compared it to another solution, and the open rate was much higher because the emails went directly to the inbox."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Since the product is part of a bundle, it is definitely very cost-efficient."
"There are additional charges, like whenever I add additional users, I need to pay extra."
"Zoho Campaigns is cheaper compared to other products."
"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"Zoho Campaigns is not that expensive as compared to other solutions like MailChimp."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"The tool is priced less compared to other applications."
"We have an enterprise license for this because we use Zoho for lots of things. We have HR and a bunch of other things. We probably don't pay individually for marketing or sales, and it's all in the overall license that we have."
