The ease of use, the interface, the new features that are constantly added. I've tried so many email marketing platforms and I kept coming back to Flodesk - now even get my clients to use it because man, it's incredible. I would 100% recommend Flodesk to any business owner out there. > > **Cons**: Would like some more features \& segmentation options \& integrations, but overall everything is great\! > > Absolutely incredible - the support, the user-friendliness, the templates, the interface - is absolutely amazing. I would no doubt recommend Flodesk to anyone. If you're just getting into email marketing, Flodeks is also a GREAT introduction, it doesn't overcomplicate things, but it definitely delivers. ----- ### "Email Marketing That's Beautiful and User-Friendly\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jennifer** | *04 March 2026* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I've been with Flodesk since its start. It's been great to watch it grow and even more exciting for my business as they've added updates, making it increasingly easier to create beautiful, professional-looking newsletters without the stress of needing to be super tech-savvy. > > **Cons**: I've heard complaints about it lacking certain aspects for e-commerce, testing, segmentation, automated workflows, and such, but at this time, I'm not using many of these features, or I'm just beginning to dabble in them for my business. I mostly keep things simple, so I have few complaints at this time. > > Overall, I'm so glad that I switched to Flodesk, and I plan to stay with them as long as my business needs continue to be met by their services. They have great customer service, pricing has been fair, and I love the simplicity and beauty of their newsletter templates. ----- ### "Flodesk is my vibe\!" — 5.0/5 > **Alexandra** | *03 March 2026* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I love most about Flodesk is how beautiful the templates are and how easy they are to build out and customize. It's also so helpful because in my industry (creative agency), I can purchase ready to go designs and campaigns that are on brand for me right oout the door\! > > **Cons**: I would have to say that what I like least about Flodesk is the price...but that is not out of line compared to other email campaign sites. In a perfect Utopian world...it would be free\! Haha. > > I love Flodesk and I highly recommend for any person wanting to create beautiful, modern designs for their mass emails, campaigns, lead forms etc....such a necessary and fantastic marketing tool\! ----- ### "Great, but needs development" — 3.0/5 > **Maria** | *30 August 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: The minimalist design is spot on - it really is unique. The fact that they charge a flat fee regardless of \# of subscribers is also rare for the USPs. Overall I like their simple approach to the software and email sending and that it's easy to figure out how it works. > > **Cons**: It's very much still a tool in development. A lot of technical functionalities are not yet in place or are not fully developed, such as AB testing, dynamic content, advanced and custom segmentation, and overall ability to make it more your own. They have a big community and lots of requests for new features that they are actively working on (which is great to see) but sometimes, as an email marketer, I find the functionalities lacking and wouldn't recommend the tool for someone with complex needs and audiences. > > Great on the surface, definitely beats mailchimp in simplicity and getting the job done BUT once you start using it, you find that some functionalities are either missing or not good enough. ----- ### "My \#1 Recommended Platform\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jaymie** | *13 February 2026* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the combination of functionality and beauty that Flodesk combines\! As an entrepreneur I want simple systems that support my business growth and connect me with my audience and potential clients but form and flexibility in design are key to me enjoying and actually using them. With Flodesk I get the business system functionality that serves my need for masculine structure while being very easy to use, and customer support has also always been incredible if I get stuck, and serve my creative desire to make things still beautiful and pleasing to consume beyond just what I write. I also love that it's a female led team behind it\! > > **Cons**: I can't think of anything I haven't outright liked. They recently switched their pricing tiers to volume based which I don't love as a model but I understand it and can respect their need to grow and serve their clients and company best. > > My overall experience has always been positive since the day I signed up which was when they first launched. It's the one platform I've maintained for the entirety of my online creation journey to date and, other than them shutting it down, I can't imagine a scenario where I would feel the need to move to any other platform. Even when my websotr platform or payment processor or course platform has come with email servoces included it hasn't even crossed my mine to cancel and switch because it's served me so well and even grown with my business in ways it can function and help me. ----- Page: 1 / 8\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/207268/flodesk?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/207268/flodesk) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
