Considered Both Products
Autoklose
Chose Autoklose
Most closely is SalesFlare and they directly pull in information for me and have a pipeline so it has been my go to for more important colder sequences as it has more end to end tracking
Chose Autoklose
Autoklose was very reasonably priced compared to the three competitors that I reviewed, but the features were far less robust than Outreach, so I ultimately decided to leave Autoklose after some time. And I went with Outreach, but I still had a great experience with Autoklose, …
Chose Autoklose
Compared to Outreach, Autoklose is similar in the best ways. Both allow you to create email sequences that naturally appear to forward the previous message. Outreach is really intended for Salesforce users, so many of the features seem useless unless you use salesforce. …
Chose Autoklose
HubSpot CRM, Moosend, Salesforce CMS and Shared Contacts for Gmail
Chose Autoklose
Autoklose categorizes information on the display, it is easy to navigate through dashboards and features. In case something is unclear, the Support team always helps to figure it out quickly and clearly.
Chose Autoklose
Outranks them across the board including price, functionality, and customer support, etc.
Chose Autoklose
For me, the most important "why" I selected Autoklose against other platforms is because it had a cheaper price, a very professional team, and it has everything I needed in order to be productive, keep in touch with my team, and use my personal email. And one very important …
Chose Autoklose
Autoklose allows for much more personal emails rather than the typical "mass" email format used by Mailchimp and others. The emails from Autoklose truly look like one you would receive from any person and we have had much higher engagement from these rather than the standard …
Chose Autoklose
Other options have less effective user interfaces.
Chose Autoklose
We used this tool previously and it worked OK but did not integrate with Repfabric or provide the robust reporting as Autoklose.
Chose Autoklose
Autoklose was the first product of its kind that we tested out. Compared to mass emailing with Outlook Autoklose did wonders for our organization. It solved a problem that no other prospective person could do.
Chose Autoklose
Mailshake is more complicated because it's a direct email sender, but it gives you its opinion on the type of messages you may send. The advantage Autoklose takes is the data base and it's more of a lead gen system. LeadFuze is on course with Autokloze. It seems LeadFuze has …
Chose Autoklose
I haven't used any other actual products similar to Autoklose. I would do things manually, which took forever and often would fall to the bottom of my to-do list.
Chose Autoklose
It's quite similar to Yesware. Both have the great basic functionality of email outreach and simple data tracking. I believe Mixmax had already provided more functionality lately, so I'd tier it a step above. Outreach is on a different level and one of the industry leaders.
Chose Autoklose
I think that I have already said it, Autoklose has much better support and is really quick to set up and use compared with any of the other systems that I have used over the years.
Chose Autoklose
Autoklose provided a different set of tools that focused solely on ensuring accurate emails get sent. The other products were more focused on the CRM part or were significantly more expensive.
Chose Autoklose
Autoklose is a much more "sales" focused tool. It is great at getting emails to the right destination.
Chose Autoklose
Autoklose combines all the necessary resources for sending a campaign to a targeted (and clean) list of prospects. It sequences for me and is smart about removing leads from the process when they engage or respond. They give me easy-to-understand and act on reports of what …
Chose Autoklose
The ones I have used in the past were parts or pieces of the flow. Something goes wrong it's back and worth, this has to talk to that, I don't have the patience or the time. Now I can use one tool for a greater part of the client life cycle from lead to partner.
Drip Ecommerce CRM
Chose Drip Ecommerce CRM
Again, this is dependent on the use case. If you are a small- to medium-sized business that doesn't have a sales team, this is likely a great product for you. It is also a good price compared to larger enterprise software. Other software I have used worked better for other …
Chose Drip Ecommerce CRM
We decided to move away from Mailchimp when they announced the changes to their service plans. We cast a wide net and ended up boiling it down to Drip, Klaviyo, Omnisend, and Constant Contact.

They all have a similar set of features, but Drip was willing to work with us on …
Chose Drip Ecommerce CRM
MailChimp and Constant Contact are both excellent options based on your level of use and business goals. When comparing all three services we looked at integration ability, pricing, functionality, and customer service as our key decision factors. Each company has their pros & …
Chose Drip Ecommerce CRM
Compared to the heavyweight, Infusionsoft, Drip is incredibly powerful but much lighter weight. It's faster and easier to get a simple campaign up and running. The price is much more reasonable too. The only downside is the lack of drag and drop email builder that Infusionsoft …
Chose Drip Ecommerce CRM
As discussed earlier on, Drip from Leadpages is much more customizable and affordable than the competition. My experience has been excellent with the product support team and the business in general. I'm also a Leadpages customer, for custom landing pages and site popups, …
Chose Drip Ecommerce CRM
I selected Drip because of the integration with S2Member. When someone begins my membership program they are automatically added to my Drip campaign for members.
Chose Drip Ecommerce CRM
Drip seemed more powerful in what you can do with it. ConvertKit was considered simpler to get a handle of, but I wasn't aiming at simple, but rather at powerful and flexible.
The pricing matched my current requirements at the time and the onboarding process was simple and easy …
Chose Drip Ecommerce CRM
Mailchimp does lists. Drip does automated segmentation. This is a game changer!

User Testimonials
AutokloseDrip Ecommerce CRM
Likelihood to Recommend
I would recommend Autoklose to smaller teams that do not have the tools and processes in place for conducting sales outreach or business development activities. I would also recommend it to Sales development reps who are relying on manually managing their sales outreach without the benefits of automation. I'd also recommend it if they are trying to do the above while using a CRM like Pipedrive, as Autoklose works well with some CRMs.

Drip is my top recommendation for most people who have an existing business and audience and want to move beyond basic email broadcast and drip campaigns and start building out more personalized sequences. I don't recommend the tool for people starting out, or for anyone that isn't bringing in solid profit every month as there are cheaper tools out there to get started with.

Pros
  • It is helping in editing, managing, and send[ing] out large marketing campaigns.
  • It is easy to handle multiple emails in appropriate sequence.
  • Our company [has been] using this for a very long time. It is one of the perfect email solutions we found for our organization.
  • I have been very much impressed by their support staff.
Read full review
  • I think the workflows from Drip are particularly well done. It is easy to see how someone might work their way through my system.
  • It is easy to set up the campaigns as Drip walks you through each step.
  • Drip shows you how many people have been on your website and how your forms are performing well.
Read full review
Cons
  • The system is not designed to send out hundreds of emails within the hour. Thus if you have timely information, and you have a large list, it will generally take many hours to execute.
  • Related to the above, timing of email delivery does jot exist nor can it be customized by timezone.

  • Pricing is a bit on the higher side but well worth it so long as you're using it
  • Direct integration with Salesmate vs going through Zapier

Usability
It is well set out from a user interface perspective and once you understand how it works you understand the power and the logic of how it is done. Like any software it helps to be a frequent user, but Autoklose lets you set up campaigns in the shortest possible time based on experience with other systems that I have used.

Autoklose was very reasonably priced compared to the three competitors that I reviewed, but the features were far less robust than Outreach, so I ultimately decided to leave Autoklose after some time. And I went with Outreach, but I still had a great experience with Autoklose, and I'm able to give them great scores for their product and their service. Salesloft was less robust, and Mailshake wasn't sophisticated enough for my needs.

We decided to move away from Mailchimp when they announced the changes to their service plans. We cast a wide net and ended up boiling it down to Drip, Klaviyo, Omnisend, and Constant Contact. They all have a similar set of features, but Drip was willing to work with us on price instead of simply referring us to their tiered plans. Even though they don't have a direct integration with our e-commerce platform it was obvious they were willing to help us make the connection via their API.

Scalability
It's expensive to have a single seat for each salesperson, so the alias feature will be the perfect addition to this product.
