Flodesk Gave Me a Reason to Email Again

I've had an incredible experience with Flodesk. They have been extremely responsive to suggestions and have provided me with multiple opportunities to engage with the Flodesk community. I've never purchased a product where I've been able to talk with the CEO. Their accessibility is a huge reason why I stay with their product and the cost savings make it a no-brainer.

Pros

Flodesk is so easy to use that emailing my community is no longer a chore.

Cons

I wish there were more integrations available so I didn't have to make as many zaps in Zapier but I'm sure that will come as the application continues to develop.

I thought Flodesk would solve my problems, but ultimately Flodesk increased my problems. My business suffered a lot because of Flodesk. After moving to Flodesk, my emails are landing into the spam and promotions tab, and the open rate decreased.

Pros

- I like the UI, but sometime it confuses me alot- Pricing is reasonable however features are minimal too

Cons

- They will suspend your account without any notice or warning- After account suspension, they will not initiate a refund for the remaining days- They will not even let you export your contacts- Their customer support service is worst- I have send mails to all employees, CEO, CO, marketing team but did not get any respond from anywhere- I have tried to contact them through social media, but they don't reply their- If you are running a business through Flodesk, change your software now, otherwise one day they will randomly suspend your account and send one email and after that they will ignore your mails and messages on social media like they are dead- My business suffered alot because of them- Don't have feature to target those emails who did not open email- Open rate is very low- Most of the emails lands in promotion and spam- Conatcts takes time to load

Flodesk is aesthetically pleasing email software with a few quirks

Flodesk is great for beginner businesses or businesses who want to use a beautiful software to send aesthetically pleasing emails and run simple automations/workflows. Anything more complex or robust, and you need to go to another platform.

Pros

Flodesk has a user interface that is incredibly easy to use, intuitive, and even soothing. They have gentle, encouraging comments in between transferring you to different pages. Also, Flodesk has gorgeous, easy-to-use email templates. I haven't found another platform that is easier. Plus, Flodesk has a monthly payment for unlimited subscribers, which is phenomenal and affordable.

Cons

Flodesk lacks a lot of granular data. If you're looking to manage intricate onboarding sequences, sales campaigns, or the like, this is not your software. Even though you can do it, the workflows can be glitchy and lack some of the options of more robust email platforms. Also, Flodesk has a few quirks about management list subscribers that make it challenging to scrub and segment your list effectively.

It's been really easy to use Flodesk for email marketing—creating initial emails, email captures, email sequences, etc.

Pros

Flodesk is VERY user-friendly and just makes sense. There aren't extra buttons or links that confuse you, and you're able to easily create, edit, and send emails even if you have no email marketing experience.

In my experience, I've enjoyed reading and looking at emails sent from a Flodesk user more so than any other email—those emails look like the designer has given more thought to their email marketing and understands that text AND look are crucial to a first impression.

Cons

The image layouts (which are very beautiful) are designed for mobile viewing, so horizontal pictures often get the shaft. It's easy to use the templates and layouts, but there isn't a lot of flexibility in furthering designing with what they've already created.

If you like to stay organized with emails and content, you might get frustrated with Flodesk. You can sort campaigns and emails into folders, but it takes several clicks to do so. All emails and email campaigns are shown newest–oldest, and there isn't a way to have a "Folder View" of what you've already created or organized.

Reasons for Switching to Flodesk

The layouts were clunky and needed more time to create a beautiful design, and the dashboard/interface was confusing to navigate at times.
