Best choice for woocommerce stores

My overall experience with Brevo has been excellent. It’s the best CRM platform I've used for WooCommerce. I’ve noticed significant improvements and evolution in the platform since its days as Sendinblue, making it even more powerful and user-friendly.

Pros

What I like most about Brevo is the unlimited contacts, the ease of segmentation, and the excellent e-commerce data integration, which works really well as part of a CRM.

Cons

I like least about Brevo is the loading of unnecessary resources in e-commerce, the lack of clarity about the billing process, and the limited automation features for push notifications. Additionally, some features that could be available in the Pro plan, especially those related to e-commerce, are only offered in the more expensive plan.

Alternatives Considered

ActiveCampaign, MailPoet and Mailchimp

Reasons for Switching to Brevo

The option to have unlimited contacts and only be charged for the emails sent was a key deciding factor for me. This pricing model is highly beneficial for managing larger lists without worrying about escalating costs

I'm building up www.digitalumbrella.com with a partner in India and feel excited to apply Brevo to our overall concept. After many years of developing our web platform, we understand the work you have done to reach the level you offer to your customers.

Pros

It is the initial tool for marketing our sellers and products.
Excellent and quick reply from the support.
using screen records has been a great help.

Cons

Quite difficult to learn and navigate even for Internet advanced users.
The advanced graphic needs sensitive fingers to complete final adjustments.

I've been using Brevo for a very long time, even before they changed their name (Sendinblue). I’ve tried many other similar services, but every time I faced technical issues (emails not sending, etc.), and more importantly, the services either stopped offering premium accounts or simply reduced their limits. Brevo is one of the only ones that respects its users. Plus, its integration is super easy, whether it’s on WordPress or a regular website.

Pros

Brevo is one of the only providers offering free SMTP with a generous limit! With a free account, you can do a lot of things. I've never had any issues with Brevo, and I say Bravo to them for never changing their pricing for free users.

Cons

I find it a shame that you can't have a single account to manage multiple sites. I would've liked it to be a bit like Cloudflare, where you have one account and can add as many sites as you want, and go premium either for all the sites or per site. Because right now, I have to create a separate account for each site, and it’s not practical.

It's been very positive. The analytics tools for a free account have been great. I have already recommended it to a few people! I have tried so many other tools like MailChimp etc. and those were so overly complicated for someone who needs to send bulk emails once a month. With other tools, it felt so overly complicated and managing your contact list on other tools was like a puzzle - Brevo is straight forward.

Pros

It's user-friendly, simple to make templates and the ability to send free emails to 300 contacts have been critical to my growth as a small business.

Cons

The interface keeps changing. This has been rather frustrating to navigate.

We made the switch to Brevo from a well-known large e-marketing platform and we found the ease of use better, the design capabilities better and the quality of customer service better, it was also 1/10th of the price and allowed us to expand our contacts further than the bounds of our previous subscription. Despite it having some way to go in extra features, it is a good starting platform and the customer service team are excellent and efficient.

Pros

Value for money is excellent, the customer support is great and it is really easy to create excellent-looking campaigns, the templates are nice and there is room for lots of customisation.

Cons

I wish they had more functions to separate mailing lists, with the ability to create different brand libraries and have them assigned to certain lists. I run multiple campaigns with different brands and having to re-do the brand library every time is frustrating.

In overall I am satisfied with Brevo. I have used Mailchimp before, but the interface wasnt that easy to manage.

Pros

What our company loves about the Brevo application is its user-friendly interface. We can easily manage our email campaigns, as it remembers all previous settings, allowing us to effortlessly access any of our past email structures. Database management is also a crucial aspect of running email campaigns, and Brevo makes this easy to handle. We can simply upload data in CSV files, enabling us to efficiently import a large number of contacts.

Cons

I am not sure if it is possible to delete a large database on contacts in bulk.

Positive, easy and simple to get to know/ start using.
Intuitive layout/ easy to find things.

Pros

It is better value for money than sending our mailings out via mailchimp with a better and easier UI. This has meant we have been able to bring our entire database to breve and use their subscription form which is much easier to update/ tweak than our previous version.

Cons

When a recipient unsubscribes from one mailing brevo unsubscribes them from all mailings, rather than just the one list/ mailing they did not want. This is very frustrating as we unnecessarily lose subscribers.

When asking for country location on the subscribe form, I had to manually import/ type the names of every country for people to chose from rather than it being an existing field that brevo has as a template.

Billing was confusing for accounts as it says send in blue rather than brevo.

Using Brevo was a mix of good and not so good The best part is you can use it for free to try out how it works and see its features You can start using it right away and then decide if you want to pay for more

The design tool is simple and easy to use which is great for everyone But it was a bit tricky like a messy playroom It was hard to find the right buttons and tools and it took a long time to figure things out

Overall Brevo has lots of cool features and is easy to use but fixing the design tool would make it even better.

Pros

The platform Brevo is fantastic for beginners and experienced users as well. I have been using it for the last 6 months for email marketing purpose. The best thing about this platform is you can start using it for completely free, you can get the idea how the platform works, its features. You can use their features for testing it on your projects and test it for yourself. And then you can opt- in for the paid version. The user interface is simple, easy to understand and responsive for any level of user. I am totally satisfied with the experience.

Cons

One thing which I think they should work on is the email editor. When I was using it for designing the email structure and sections, I found it little bit hard to navigate through the options in the editor. They should have been smoother and better user experience is required.

I tried using Brevo to design emails, but I found it a bit tricky. The design tool didn’t have clear buttons or easy ways to find what I needed. It was like trying to find a toy in a big, messy room where nothing is in the right place.

Navigating through the tool was confusing, and it took a lot of time to figure out how to do even simple things. The whole experience felt a bit frustrating because it should have been much easier to use.

I think Brevo could make it better by organizing the buttons and tools more clearly and making everything easier to find. That way, using the design tool would be a lot more fun and less confusing.

I used Sendinblue in the past for ecommerce transactional emails. After a few years of absence in ecommerce, I needed a new SMTP server setup again and naturally seeked out the same service I used and liked. I then found that they changed brands to Brevo and was very surprised to see that the service offereing is even bigger and better than before.

Pros

The easy setup and generous free tier for SMTP email sending campaigns is best in class, in my opinion. They also provide all the functionality needed to run successful marketing campaigns as well as transactional emails.
In addition to emails, you can also engage with contacts via SMS and chat.

Cons

This may sound artificial, but I sincerely have not yet found anything about using Brevo for my current needs, that I could do better with outher email tools.
