Email marketing tools have come a long way—and while new platforms pop up every year, GetResponse remains one of the most well-known options in the space.

In this review, I’ll share my personal experience with GetResponse, what it’s best at, where it falls short, who it’s for, and whether it’s still worth it compared to modern alternatives.

I wanted an email marketing solution that could also handle landing pages and funnels—without needing third-party integrations.

Who Should Use GetResponse?

Based on my experience, GetResponse is best for:

• [[Small businesses]] and startups wanting everything in one place

• Coaches, freelancers, and course creators running automated campaigns

• eCommerce stores building segmented lists and automated offers

• Agencies looking for an alternative to Mailchimp or ActiveCampaign

It may not be ideal if you’re looking only for a basic email tool with no extra features.

Where GetResponse Falls Short

Though it’s powerful, GetResponse has a few drawbacks:

• The interface can feel slightly dated in some sections

• Landing page builder is solid, but not as flexible as specialized tools

• Higher-tier features (like webinars or sales funnels) are only on paid plans
