Pros / Cons
- The drag-and-drop editor and the library of prebuilt templates make it fairly quick to build and send campaigns without needing to be a design or coding expert.
- The biggest drawback for me is that Constant Contact doesn’t allow you to save and reuse custom content blocks across different templates and newsletters.

- I've been able to create drip email campaigns and a monthly email newsletter with no problem. And it's great being able to see who's opening and clicking links. If you're starting out with a small mailing list, like me, there's a free plan and a 'pay-per-email' plan, which can save money over paying monthly to some web-based systems, regardless of how large your list is. And it's nice having a native Mac app that's intuitive and I can use anywhere, even without an internet connection.
- Had to switch to another OS unfortunate, more than one PC was not an option.
