## Reviews

### "Easy to use, but billing across multiple lists needs to be clearer" — 4.0/5

> **Darko** | *23 March 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: EmailOctopus is still very easy to use. I like the clean interface, good templates, drag-and-drop editor, and how quickly I can create and send campaigns. Overall, it remains a practical and user-friendly platform for email marketing with good pricing.
> 
> **Cons**: My main issue is how subscriber billing works across multiple lists. I had one main list with 4,000+ subscribers, and I created another list from part of that audience with around 1,000+ subscribers. Even though I only used that second list once, the subscribers were counted again toward my total, so I ended up paying for more than 5,000 subscribers. This increased my monthly cost from about $28 to $34. I think this should be made much clearer inside the platform, with a stronger warning before users create overlapping lists.
> 
> My overall experience with EmailOctopus has been positive in terms of usability, campaign creation, and general performance. However, the way contacts are counted across separate lists made my costs higher than expected. I would strongly recommend using one main list with segmentation instead of creating overlapping lists, but I also think EmailOctopus should explain this pricing impact more clearly. It is a good platform, but billing transparency around duplicated subscribers across lists needs improvement.

### "Helps me out of a hole every time" — 5.0/5

> **Diana** | *5 September 2025* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I know nothing about marketing, I've never created an email mailing list before, but as a self-employed business owner, I needed to get going pretty fast. I chose Email Octopus because of their good reputation for responsive, UK-based customer support and I am so glad I did. So much more helpful than a huge US corporation, more approachable and wanting to understand my needs. Eleven out of ten every time\!
> 
> **Cons**: I haven't got the hang of making templates that work for me, and it's not easy to find out where you create one. I just reuse old campaign emails and edit them as a workaround. I also can't switch easily between my two brands/designs, so it's harder to use as an entrepreneur with two strings to her bow\!
> 
> Excellent, always ready to help me out of a mess, patiently and efficiently. Great response times in UK working hours. Definitely recommend\!

### "This is the perfect addition to any business toolbox if you're trying to grow an email list." — 5.0/5

> **Chris** | *5 March 2026* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Simple and easy to set up, we use Email Octopus to parse new email subs from multiple lists and give them an automation sequence. It took less than 5 minutes to upload a list, and another 10 to set up a multi-touchpoint email automation. Super affordable, and easy to scale too.
> 
> **Cons**: The intial 2500 sub limit was considered a detraction for us when we first started, since a lot of our lead gen magnets attract a lot of subs who only want the freebie. I wish there were "industry specific" limits.
> 
> I uploaded a brand new list to Email Octopus with subs who downloaded a reader magnet and within twenty minutes I had a campaign that was easy and simple to set up, and a multiple email automation based on triggers and subscriber actions. From upload to send in 20 minutes. It's that easy, and deliverability was great. The interface is very intuitive, and though I haven't used it, help was available for the asking at every step.

### "Happy Customer" — 5.0/5

> **Mirka** | *11 October 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that it has been an easy switch from Mailchimp. It is way more affordable, and I like that there are real people behind the company. Every time I have emailed about something I have received a thoughtful reply and they have even implemented one of my requests as a new function for emails. I am happy with the automations, and the way that I can segment my subscribers. I also really enjoy their emails, and actually open and read them. Thank you for not sending them too often. Just overall a happy customer.
> 
> **Cons**: I'm not sure. I have sent feedback before about adding some additional functions to templates but off the top of my head I can't remember what those were anymore.
> 
> Overall I am really happy with their services and am planning on sticking with them. I also really appreciate the care for the environment that they have.

### "Highly Recommend EmailOctopus" — 5.0/5

> **Kelly** | *30 September 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I found it easy to learn and use—very intuitive. Also, customer support is excellent. This was a huge factor for me because my previous service was not helpful. They spoke in tech terms. I'm an author and need to handle my website myself. EmailOctopus is phenomenal.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't have any complaints. EmailOctopus has everything I need for my author newsletter and book launch team communications. I get compliments on how nice my newsletters look. I'm very pleased.
> 
> I'm beyond satisfied with the look of my newletters, tech support, and I've even been able to segment my own lists because the directions were so clear.
