ClickDimensions Review
It is a really in-depth Marketing Automation solutions that has plenty of features that I haven't always seen from other similar platforms. On top of landing pages, emails, social media which almost everyone has, they include surveys, text campaigns, really in-depth analytics, and more. It has it slight differences from other CRM's I've used, but I enjoy it.
PROSI love the different ways you can go about building emails and landing pages, you basically don't need to know coding to build a high-quality email or landing page!
CONSI wish there was an option, like Hubspot has, that you can build a pop-up form and simply enter what URL you want it to show up on and just like that you have a form. Everything on ClickDimensions requires an embed code and that's it.
Reasons for switching to ClickDimensions
Company already had Dynamics, so we started using ClickDimensions.

Very powerful marketing automation tool
My overall experience with this product is great. The support is surprisingly helpful and available during normal business hours. It's always a real person and they can always get your sorted out quick if you have an issue. At their price point there really isn't any reason not to at least try it and see what you can get out of it.
PROSI have used this tool for a very long time and seen it evolve and consistently improve over the years. I personally love the forms provided by this suite. They are very easy to customize for other uses besides a contact/lead submission. The campaign automation engine/UI is satisfying to work with and supplies all functionality one would need. Cost for this tool is very competitive as well. You aren't charge for storage of images or any of the "extras" but only for the quantity of emails sent.
CONSI really wish there was a way to emulate Outlook (desktop) when testing email HTML/CSS. I haven't personally worked with any marketing software that can sufficiently expose all the antiquated CSS blemishes that come with Outlook desktop but a little intellisense to help highlight when you are using a class that is prohibited would be incredible.

ClickDimensions does not meet even basic standards as a product or company
The company is clearly focused on growing all the areas of the product, but fails to support the existing functionality. It was evident that the dependence on Microsoft is their current asset for winning business, but that will change. That's when this company will have to stand on its merits of support and product performance. I suspect they will not be successful at that time. What you have read in areas of these reviews regarding their support team and lack of knowledge, is absolutely true. We wasted countless hours re-educating their own team to only have no resolution.
PROSIt is closely integrated with Microsoft Dynamics. While this is a plus, it is also why ClickDimensions fails to provide great support. There is a constant challenge between the information available in CD and Dynamics and this becomes a massive hurdle in getting support.
CONSLack of consistent functionality was a major issue. We had exceptional problems with the product. It repeatedly would not perform the way expected, and working with their support teams was not at all a positive experience. We would be 'escalated' to another team repeatedly, yet no resolution. And, then we would be starting all over. They were not at all proactive about researching the issues or testing. They placed all the responsibility on the client, even though it was proven over and over again that something was not working. In our case, nearly 20% of our substantial email lists were not even being selected to send. On the Dynamics side it was definitely functioning right.
Reason for choosing ClickDimensions
Integration with Microsoft Dynamics and development team directive at client location.
Reasons for switching to ClickDimensions
It was a necessary change due to the client adopting Microsoft Dynamics as their core platform. Ironically, 2 years later, the client will continue to use Dynamics, but we have received glowing approvals to move back to Salesforce and Marketing Cloud. The experience with the product and customer service is night and day.

Seamless symbiosis within Dynamics 365
Delivers what is desired - content creation and automation Part of Microsoft 365 (as an App into Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Sales) Replaces proprietary solutions like Mailchimp, Typeforms etc. Sweet ratio price/added value Amazing informational ecosystem - you can read and watch everything about ClickDimensions
CONSBit longer learning curve At this time not fully turned on new UI
Reason for choosing ClickDimensions
ClickDimensions is lush! More intuitive, more mature, fits to your hands once you choose it.

Confusing, not user friendly, but once you get it figured out, it works pretty well
We're using it actively, but things just break for no reason sometimes.
PROSI like the ability to create, send, and track email marketing, but it's so hard to learn the platform, and the support is pretty lacking.
CONSwhen I get support, there's 2-3 different ways to do things, and no one seems to agree on the best way.

Solid Marketing Platform for Dynamics CRM
We use ClickDimensions for our marketing platform within our Microsoft Dynamics CRM system. We utilize the email campaigns, posted forms, page visit tracking, surveys, and other marketing-based features within our CRM application. Overall, ClickDimensions is a very solid platform that is easy to implement and use. The drawbacks to the application are minimal for our organization, although we can see how these issues could affect other companies that use ClickDimensions. Our experience with ClickDimensions has been mostly positive, though.
PROSClickDimensions is completely integrated with Microsoft Dynamics CRM, so if you use Dynamics, this marketing platform is a great fit. It is also fairly easy to use and has a good amount of features that a marketing team can benefit from. For the money, ClickDimensions is a tremendous value to a company using Dynamics CRM.
CONSClickDimensions is only compatible with Microsoft Dynamics CRM, so if you end up moving to a different CRM application, you won't be able to use ClickDimensions for your marketing functions. Although ClickDimensions provides all of the necessary marketing features our company needs, they are somewhat limited on their features compared to other marketing platforms.

Painful Customer support
We use ClickDimensions to send out service bulletins, new technology announcements, invitations etc.
PROSIt is better than sending emails through Outlook but only marginally. I do like the to see the click rates and who has opened the email.
CONSThe thing I like the least about this software is their customer support. Support is stateside but in this case that does not make it better. ClickDimensions does not have phone support, and their chat support is very limited. Their customer support is the painful process of sending an email back and forth, often answering the same questions for them multiple times. Two or three hours can go by between responses even though you responded to their question just moments after they sent you the email. It would not be that bad if they stayed on the ticket and responded immediately, but they don't.

Awesome marketing automation for Dynamics
Good experience, very good support, and great tools. Also, the value was better compared to some of the alternatives.
PROSThere are a ton of useful tools that come with this automation tool that lives right inside Dynamics. Son many, that we didn't properly utilize all of them. One of my favorites was the ability to create email templates and nurtures series that any CRM user could send to a contact.
CONSFor us, we had too many compatibility issues between Click Dimensions and CRM. Led to a lot of hours logged with support trying to figure out why things weren't working. It eventually became too much of an issue. Also, I wanted an email automation tool where I could easily loop nurtures without having to create a custom workflow in CRM.

Integration into Microsoft Dynamics is what saves it
The drag and drop editor is easy to use and mostly intuitive.
CONSThe interface is clunky, the landing pages look outdated and the campaign "automation" is often riddled with bugs and doesn't end up being very automated.

Some intuitive features, others require extensive training.
-I like the form feature. The capability to create forms and capture and map information directly into our CRM makes collecting leads very simple. -Email template builder is decent and has good personalization options that can be pulled from CRM fields. -Campaign automation builder has great potential and currently has many great uses for sending out automated emails to clients or potential clients.
CONS-Drag and drop landing page builder is not equipped to make sites mobile responsive. Only way to make mobile responsive is to build your own site in HTML and upload into CD. -Uploading images and CSS/JS/etc code to build your own HTML page is a pain. Have to go through other builders to accomplish the upload. There is not one location outside of a builder to achieve this. -Domains are not secure through CD unless you use the ClickDimensions domain name. This means that any landing pages that I build with forms for customers to fill out, there is no secure icon in the URL bar and they are not secure. Even if we use a purchased domain name that would otherwise be secure. This leaves me feeling that users will not fill out our forms because they do not want to put their personal information on an unsecured form/page. -Lots of small technical glitches.

Cons offset the Pros
Last year they came up with Account reps that were suppose to provide health checks and we are still waiting on ours for 2019. Turnover is a problem. Tier 1 support is inadequately trained and other tiers are inadequately staffed and sometimes inadequately trained. We tried to work with them, we really tried, but in the end it was just too time consuming and difficult to get a stable working product.
PROSIntegrated with Dynamics 365. Appeared to have all the features we needed. Allowed us to consolidate our email marketing.
CONSStability issues, Support issues, Consistency issues, Accuracy issues. We spent more time working on issues than using the product.
Reasons for switching to ClickDimensions
Integration with Dynamics 365. We don't recommend anyone else base their decision on this factor.

PROSThe only upside to this software is the direct integration into Microsoft dynamics. Of course, it is only good if you’re currently using Microsoft The only upside to this software is the direct integration into Microsoft dynamics. Of course, this is only good if you’re currently using Microsoft as your CRM S your CRM. Even better is a clunky connector with many limitations .
CONSThe software has a steep Steep learning curve And it’s not as intuitive as other marketing automation software. In a high output Department efficiency is key. Setting up a string of communications with accompanying lading pages should not consume more than an hour depending on the number of emails This software is at best double the time to implement a similar campaign as competitors.

Click Dimensions has good and bad points
They do have an easy to use drag and drop builder to build your emails, making it easy to get started and to get something out the door.
CONSMuch of the navigation feels "clunky" and not user-intuitive. Also there are some problems with the code that is generated if you switch from drag and drop to the freestyle design mode, causing some layout problems with delivered emails in some clients.

Click Dimensions has many great features, but lacking in other areas
It's easy to use one of Click Dimension's drag and drop builders to get an email started. There are also great resources online for help and support. It also works well with our database system, Ramco.
CONSFor one, the code generated by the application does not work for major email clients such as Outlook-- so you have to go in and hand-code portions of your layout, such as alignment and spacing. Also the interface is a little clunky -- I have worked with others that are cleaner and easier to use.
