So easy to keep your contacts all in once place and organised in groups. > > **Cons**: I find it quite time consuming to make emails when adding pictures and links but this would probably be the case with most systems. > > Contacts all in one place and easy to organise.

User friendly and great functions for free. ----- ### "Fantastic value for authors and small businesses\!" — 5.0/5 > **Charolette** | *17 October 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: EmailOctopus has been a wonderful tool for managing my author newsletter. It’s secure, affordable, and incredibly user-friendly once you get the hang of it. I love how easy it is to organize my reader lists, run campaigns, and track engagement without feeling overwhelmed by data. The platform’s clean layout and customizable templates make my newsletters look polished and professional. Their customer support team is also quick to respond and genuinely helpful—something I truly appreciate as a small business owner. > > **Cons**: On smaller laptop screens, the drag-and-drop editor can be a little tricky to use. Sometimes I have to scroll just right to position elements, and the widgets don’t always land exactly where I want them, causing the screen to bounce around a bit. > > Despite that minor issue, EmailOctopus is an amazing platform that offers incredible value for the price. It’s reliable, secure, and perfect for authors who want a simple, effective way to connect with readers and grow their audience. ----- ### "Intrusion on personal content and business core workflow" — 1.0/5 > **Juan** | *10 February 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Simple interface Easy initial setup Suitable for very small lists Wordpress compatible plugin. Easy integration. > > **Cons**: Excessive manual compliance reviews Intrusive inspection of private campaigns and email content. Unpredictable campaign approval process Requests for internal business workflow details Operational delays without clear violations > > I have managed and executed a large number of email campaigns for multiple clients and businesses across different platforms. In that experience, I had never encountered this level of operational intrusion. After onboarding, importing my list, and preparing campaigns, my campaign was placed on hold for manual review. EmailOctopus later confirmed that my campaign did not violate any compliance rule. Despite this, they manually opened and reviewed my private campaign content and initiated an extended investigation into my internal business processes, lead acquisition methods, and data structure. They questioned: Why some contacts did not have “first names” (even though my form only collects a single name field) Why B2B contacts used role-based emails (info@, hello@, etc.) How my internal workflows operate How leads are processed internally All contacts were first-party, permission-based, and obtained through legitimate business channels. No purchased or scraped data was used. Instead of relying on standard industry indicators (complaints, bounce rates, engagement, unsubscribe rates), the platform relied on subjective manual reviews and repeated documentation requests. This created delays, uncertainty, and business risk. At some point, continuing would have required disclosing sensitive internal company processes just to send lawful campaigns. Recommendation EmailOctopus may be suitable for hobby projects or very small personal lists. For professional, B2B, or client-facing email marketing, I cannot recommend it due to unpredictable compliance enforcement and excessive operational interference. ----- Page: 1 / 27\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/147415/emailoctopus?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/147415/emailoctopus) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | ko | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | | tr | | ----- ## Structured Data
