Considered Both Products
Liftoff
Chose Liftoff
They are very similar actually. What I like about Liftoff though is that we don't have to use 3rd party applications to do what we need which can add up super quickly. If we are in need of customer service, the staff is knowledgeable about everything since the functions are …
Listrak
Chose Listrak
The Bronto platform is so similar to Listrak in that it made no sense for us to move unless there were significant cost savings (there weren't). We are so intertwined with Listrak that it would be painful to move for the sake of moving. Klaviyo is very DIY which can be great. …
Chose Listrak
Listrak offered more products than Bronto did at the time we evaluated, and we wanted all the alerts and email series products to use.
Chose Listrak
The service is overpriced compared to competitors, and the service is very hard to set up and integrate with our Shopify store. You think they would want to integrate more seamlessly with the largest e-commerce platform on the market. After working with them for several years, …
Chose Listrak
Klaviyo and MailChimp have better integrations with Shopify and seem to be targeted more to the small business. Listrak is definitely better suited for a mid-tier business, but they will help you get there.
Chose Listrak
The focus Listrak has on e-commerce was a huge selling point. The price-point and easy installation were another attraction. The product is simple, clean, effective, and encompasses everything we need to be successful. It was a clear winner for us.
Chose Listrak
I've been using programs like Listrak for several years. Many times the needs from clients have been on a smaller scale, so options like MailChimp and ConstantContact have provided the necessary service levels. However, if you're looking at merging effectively with an eCommerce …
Chose Listrak
This is the first subscription list service we have used so we don't have much to compare it to. We have no complaints about the software or the service they provide. They have been very easy to work with and fast to respond to questions on our account.
Chose Listrak
Listrak stands out from the listed companies for a variety of reasons, but there are 3 main areas that make Listrak my go to platform.
1. Superior control over your Database & Lists
2. Excellent deliverability rate for businesses that possess a large database.
Chose Listrak
Stronger in business to consumer and online retail email marketing. Better user interface. Better reporting functions.

Likelihood to Recommend
I think for mainstream ecommerce, the sites are super quick to spin up, easy to use, and fit the bill for most asks. The challenge can be when you need something more customized. I think they have the ability to basically do anything you need but they don't necessarily have the bandwidth to get it all done when you need it.

We use Listrak to send cart abandonment emails, welcome emails, and sales emails. We also use the segmentation tool to find specific customers if we are looking for feedback on new products or specific issues. This has been a great way to reach out to them in a very personalized way.

Return on Investment
  • Less double data entry thanks to the uploads
  • Easier to use interface allows our staff to just work on the job rather than trying to figure out how to work on the job
  • Allows us to scale more easily instead of relying on a one-person developer team

  • Ability to execute dynamic content & intricately segmented email campaigns has made a hugely positive impact on our marketing capabilities while maintaining a large database.
  • Listrak does cost slightly more than its competition, therefore making me (the consumer) look a little harder at our ROI since implementing Listrak as our primary digital marketing platform. All-in-all, it is safe to say that Listrak has definitely had a positive impact on our overall business goals of creating campaigns that increase customer engagement, click-thru rates, and most importantly conversions.
