Publicate

Pros

Great online integration mixed with an ease of use approach, particularly the drag and drop on the editor, and easily up loadable and editable content, with vast image library. However it is the analytics where publicate really sets itself above the competition, can now make call to action marketing with a better understanding of user engagement and the platforms they share the newsletters on. Would highly recommend to business owners/managers and professional marketers.

Cons

No Cons, but integration with API would assist internal integrations but not a big issue due to the analytics that can be filtered into our marketing strategy.

Pros

The integrations have been so helpful. The ease of building something and it being ready to just copy and paste has been a gamer changer and meant less resource is needed to get the job done for internal comms.

Cons

There have been some buggy elements, but if you report it to customer service they will look into and resolve also they have been very open and want to hear about any features we might want added.

Pros

Publicate is feature rich and packed with a lot of great ideas. Being able to curate and sync with a number of different curation sources is pretty sweet. Also being able to export curations to either email html or web html is really cool.

Cons

Publicate is the most robust of the tools out there, but tends to be stretched too thin. I have not seen any recent development improvements in a while, and the interface is a bit buggy from time to time, causing me to lose a lot of time focusing on formatting and working around the tool's nuances. I'd love to use this tool more, but for now, will wait to see if the dev team publishes any improvements/upgrades

Pros

We send out a monthly newsletter to all our customers, in the past we've had to pull together images and text from all our product listing manually. Then try and put together something which looks good manually. With Publicate we just paste in URLs and next thing you know we've got a beautiful, mobile responsive newsletter. It saves us HOURS.

Cons

I'd like more automation, but also understand why this isn't possible.. dreaming I guess.

Pros

I can create a newsletter within minutes, all I have to do is drag and drop my content from various sources and boom! You are ready to rock.

I can also save templates of my own, create brand styles in their brand kit and easily track the analytics for my emails.

Cons

Some extensions such as ad blockers and lastpass can cause issues with the usability of the editor. If you turn those off on Publicate, everything should be just fine.
