When you go for refund its an absolute joke. You have to call them. Can not do it online. If you are calling from outside US, expect more than 40 minutes call waiting time. An absolute joke. I had to call multiple times and imagine being charged more than your monthly fee for the call to stop your subscription. If I had to describe my experience in one word: PATHETIC. As for the services, AVERAGE. I now have started using mail chimp. Way more features and way way more convenient.
Would never recommend this service to anyone. If you ever decide to end service with Constant Contact they hold your information hostage on their servers even if you request it removed. The person I spoke to not only told me none of this is mentioned in the user agreement but then laughed at me when I got frustrated. Was told I would stop receiving correspondence and I still am, which apparently was something included in the user agreement, but for some reason only the user has to follow it.
You have got to provide an option when uploading contacts via this app to be able to grab from Google drive. The lack thereof is incredibly prohibitive.
I prefer to use on my phone or iPad. The functionality is different on each device. When I copy a campaign on my phone it easier to edit the text versus the computer. On the computer it doesn't except the edits for me. I begin on my computer and switch to the app to make the edits. It could be user error (lol) but I adjust and switch between the two devices.
The reports are useless. They don't accurately list the opens and clicks etc. They will omit people who have opened up the email. For example, I open my email yet my name sometimes is listed and other times it isn't and the times it is listed, it might be listed several times. Very frustrated with this app. The desktop version reports are better but they have issues too. Thinking of going back to Mailchimp.
Since I wasn't clear on my last review, I put a little bit more detail in this one. So I downloaded the app. And my main objective was to be able to resend campaigns, and check on my list to see if it's growing. None of which the app was able to do. It does not refresh with my latest campaign and it does not allow me to access my contacts. It appears the app is to be frozen, almost in a buffering type state. I hear MailChimp doesn't have these issues.
Horrible experience here. Installed it to make a quick edit to one of our emails. Not only is the app sluggish and wouldn't load the emails, I'm reading in reviews I couldn't edit anyway. What on earth is the point of this app if it can't mirror the functionality of the website. I'm uninstalling. Very disappointed.
Great to supplement desktop version. So far I have just used the app to upload photos to my Library and send a Campaign that I forgot to schedule before leaving the office. I can't see trying to use it for all functions, that would be kind of difficult (and silly!) but it's great to use in conjuntion with the desktop program.
Mobile web interface on the Constant Contact site is completely (intentionally?) dysfunctional, so you have to download their app. For your trouble, the app fails to properly display images in campaigns and has a choppy interface that makes it difficult to see response and click rates. Very poor.
Terrible. Cannot even see all of my campaigns. Uninstaller and reinstalled. Same problem. WORTHLESS APP.
Not very helpful. If you still have to do most important things on the website then the app really serves no purpose... Perhaps it would be better to fix the bugs and interface errors on the desktop version instead of trying to keep up with the Joneses by releasing an app that can't do what it needs to do
Customer support contacted me and resolved the issues related to my original post: Crashed not once but three times while trying to write an email campaign.. and it didn't save so I had to do it three times. Not to mention that you can't use templates you created online. It's so bad I'm considering a different service. I deserve a free month due to frustration.
No use at all. You have to go back to desktop for everything! You can't view or edit campaign. You can't check registration details. The mobile version of the website is worst, can't display properly, can't click or check in any campaign..not clickable at all. Very poor interface and experience!
Unexpected increases and high pricing for limited services when comparing to other better online marketing apps/companies. We are ending this service finally after 13+ years. We keep getting increases that have jumped from 50 to $120/month to $120 to $205 recently We have had enough! Loyalty means nothing to Constant Contact!
Not great. It doesn't sync with website. It just thinks and thinks. I can't keep installing this, this is supposed to make running my business easier for newsletters and social media posts. Disappointed, just fix it!
UPDATE. These people are crooks. Think twice about paying for their services because if you ever want to cancel, you have to go through hoops and red tape. When you are successful, they delay cancelling your account and won't refund the money. This is unfair business practice 101. Could be good but the app doesn't sync properly with the website. My campaigns aren't showing in the app nor their status. I reached out to the developer, but I got an erroneous response.
I've had this app for months and it has never been able to sync with online. I've never gotten past the opening screen even after deleting and the app and it claiming to sync. So idk what the point of the app even is. Online also crashes frequently when I try to build emails.
Useless, Why have an app with so many limitations for a paid service. You charge people to make a custom design, but you can't use it on the app. Many people are on a go and can't use the simplified options you offer on the app. To me it completely defeats the purpose of having an app for your service. The service also provides you from using any mobile device to update custom or non-simplified emails. This is way too restrictive and It makes it hard to justify the use of your service.
Garbage. Only works half the time. Somehow my 3 star review was removed. The app doesn't load. The UI is absolutely horrendous. The mobile layout is even worse. Its like they didn't figure out how technology has advanced and they're stuck in 2004.
The ap works well for adding contacts and for checking my open rate after sending an email. It does NOT interface with the website when it comes to writing emails. Campaigns started on the website cannot be edited/finished in the ap and campaigns started in the ap cannot be edited/finished on the website. And the website interfaces horribly on a mobile device. Thinking of checking out other email services because of this.
Limited features, not user friendly moving between the desktop and mobile app. Reports from my team that emails are being sent to Spam. It's not because of my email (it's new), it's because Constant Contact's emails are considered or being flagged as spam. That is highly disappointing.
It doesnt have all the options on the app that are available on the website. If you need to attach a PDF, you cannot with the app, and using the website with a cell phone is frustrating. Please make all features available on the app...it would save me so much time.
This app stinks! I get to the last step of adding my address, however, the save button allows you to press it yet it does not function. I end up stuck at that screen and having to go on my laptop to finish the process. Fix this basic functionality.
Complete trash. Not only does their site not work on mobile devices but their app is trash too. You can't even copy and old emsil and resend it. It creates a new one instead 🤦♂️. You guys need to get your act together. It's 2019. Everyone works from their phone!
TERRIBLE. Why offer an app if you can't use 70% of the features. I'm starting to consider switching to Square email marketing. I can't even seem to be able to delete an image... This app is ATROCIOUS, don't even bother downloading. ( I normally dont review apps good or bad, however this NEEDS to be said)
Doesn't load emails. My last 3 won't show in the app, some were sent as long as 1 month ago. This is my second try at the app, but I will be uninstalling once again. Stick with desktop version.
This is one of the worst apps. I love constant contact but this app is a poor representation of the company. I can only send basic emails, no ability to manage events or campaigns.
I don't expect full replication of functions on the app, but I do expect to be able to copy an old email campaign, make some simple changes and resend it under a new name. If that function exists, it is not found easily or intuitively.
