Cons

  • Reviewers describe the interface as outdated and cluttered, with a steep learning curve.

Pros

  • One platform covers email, SMS, push, in-app messaging, forms and live chat.

  • G2 reviewers often praise responsive support and the efficiency of data integrations.

Cons

  • Price rises quickly with contact count, and reviewers say smaller businesses struggle to justify it.
  • Landing pages, transactional messaging and webhooks require the Professional plan or higher.
  • Reviewers say custom dashboards and attribution reporting are less flexible than they need.
  • SMS costs extra on top of the subscription, through phone number rental and credit blocks.
