Capabilities Detailed Review	Rating	Rating
1 – Email builder	★★★★ 4.5/5 GetResponse makes use of a drag and drop editor which is easy to handle. Also nice is the way you can undo/redo actions with a revision history. Also, you can spam-test your emails, which is really cool!	★★★ 3.5/5 Constant Contact is easy to work with. A downside is the limited amound of customization options available within the editor. Visually, it is also a bit outdated.
2 – Email templates	★★★ 3.0/5 With GetResponse you have a decent selection of different email templates. They do look a bit outdated though.	★★ 2.0/5 Using Constant Contact's editor makes it easy to customize templates. There are many templates to choose from, but the designs are pretty outdated, though.
3 – Form builder	★★★★ 4.0/5 Setting up forms with GetResponse is done conveniently with their form builder. It is helpful that you can also create landings pages. The only downsides are that the form design options and the form display options (like pop ups etc) are a bit limited. But if you work with optin software or some of the popular pagebuilders for wordpress like Elementor and thrive, you won't have a problem here.	★ 1.0/5 Constant Contact is as basic as it can be, in terms of building forms. It offers no options like customization, pop ups, slide ins, etc.
4 – List Management & Segmentation	★★★★ 4.0/5 ​The only downside we came across in point 4 of our GetResponse review was their tagging system is that tagging can not be done manually. Other than that, good segmentation and tagging system.	★★ 2.0/5 Tagging options are limited and difficult to use. You can not automatically tag contacts based on their behaviour, which is a big red flag if you are serious about automation/personalization.
5 – Automation	★★★ 3.0/5 GetResponse is decent when it comes to setting up automations. GetResponse is equipped with a nice workflow builder in which all features are conveniently listed and can be applied with drag and drop. It is a little bit outdated though, because you have to leave to automation builder to create new emails (which disrupts your workflow) and deliverability leaves a lot to be desired.	★ 1.0/5 Constant Contact is very limited in setting up automations. There is no visual workflow builder, you can only send very basic autoresponders and everything takes too many clicks to set up. Really one of the worst tools we've reviewed in the automation department.
6 – Splittesting	★★★ 3.0/5 The A/B-testing of GetResponse is decent and has the basic features readily available. You can test email content, and split-test individual emails inside automations. You can not splittest a complete automation or funnel however.	★ 1.0/5 The only thing you can A/B test with Constant Contact are the subject lines.
7 – Integrations	★★★ 3.5/5 GetResponse integrates with almost every app (also integration with Zapier).	★★★★ 4.0/5 Constant Contact integrates with basically every app (also Zapier integrations).
8 – Reporting	★★★★ 4.0/5 GetResponse does tracking and reporting well. It is slightly better than most tools out there, since it has some nice extra features. The best one is ROI tracking.	★★ 2.5/5 Basic tracking and reporting. For advanced metrics not very suitable.
9 – Support & Community	★★★ 3.0/5 We've had great support during our GetResponse review. There are many options: email, phone, live chat, and a lot of information elsewhere. They are usually very responsive and helpful, but sometimes not at all.	★★★★ 4.0/5 With Constant Contact, you will have access to an abundance of information. There is a lot of information on their website with many video tutorials. Also, you can contact them through live chat and phone. There is also a community present. We've had good support during our Constant Contact review.
10 – Ease of use	★★★ 3.5/5 Sometimes a bit confusing, but in the end you'll manage.	★★★ 3.5/5 You don't need much time to be able to use all features. It works pretty straight forward.
11 – Value for money	★★★★ 4.0/5 After completing our GetResponse review, we must say they offer really good value for money.	★★ 2.0/5 A bit expensive, especially if you have a list of 10K plus.

All in all one of the better tools out there.	★★ 2.5/5 After our Constant Contact review we must say the tool is fairly easy to use and contains all the basic features.
