Senior Marketing Specialist Computer Software ### "A swiss army knife that can do a lot of what you need ... but not everything" 3.0 Overall Rating 3.0 3.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 5/10 October 2, 2025 Act-on has been there for our team's marketing efforts. In the course of a year we've run campaigns of all sorts, driven traffic to landing pages and assets, created forms and segmented lists. These marketing efforts have had their ups and downs, and challenges with engagement have been hard to rectify without proper insight. Act-On is a swiss army knife, but it can only deliver so much with a corkscrew, a short blade, and a dull scissors. Pros From proper list segmentation and email campaign automations, asset hosting and landing page, Act-On enables you to do just about everything. And they are making efforts to meet the moment, providing insight into how much email engagement is real. Cons Nothing is quite easy. Everything is a step or two from intuitive. The landing pages may be drag and drop simple, but at their best they also look like they're from the 2010's. Even as Act-On makes moves to meet the moment, sharing how much email engagement is real, the data is not actionable: I cannot see who really did click on any one email.

Pros Act-On is a simple to use platform with WYSIWYG editors for emails, forms, and landing pages. You can quickly set up multiple touch point campaigns.
