Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/3/2023 "Outbound Engine Marketing is Not Worth the Money" 0/5 What do you like best about OutboundEngine? When I first signed up, I had a dedicated account manager who was great! We spoke every month, she asked what was working and what wasn't. She went through my marketing thoroughly, made suggestions and then before we got off the call, she made sure to calendar our next meeting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OutboundEngine? Once they revamped their business model and got rid of the dedicated account managers it was impossible to connect with anyone. You can only go through "success@outboundengine.com" and never would I receive any emails or phone calls as requested. I finally got a hold of someone in billing after several months of trying and that person agreed to reduce my monthly charge. I still had no contact of anyone ever reaching out to see how I was liking the product. I wasn't. Then I've been trying to cancel for several months and no one calls or emails back. They are just taking the money and running with it. Do not sign up for this company. They will take your money and do the bare minimum. There are months that my FB was not linked and they didn't care and didn't do anything about it except to continue charging me monthly dues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OutboundEngine solving and how is that benefiting you? Did not help. Was not a benefit. At various points, LinkedIn and/or Facebook will disconnect from Outbound. Other than a spam email notifying the user that it's been disconnected, they do nothing to help you or notify you that it's been disconnected, therefore the money you are paying them to promote on those pages is wasted because it's not connected. This so called service is a huge waste of money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Show More Current UserValidated ReviewerSource: Organic JP Julie P. Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 11/10/2023 "Outrageously expensive, customer service is non existent" 0/5 What do you like best about OutboundEngine? Newsletters sent on your behalf. Nothing else positive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OutboundEngine? Everything else. If you want to spend $600 a month to have newsletters sent and nothing else, this product is for you! when i started, I had an account executive that was super helpful and called me every month to make sure I was utilizing the product and understood all the features. apparently sometime ago, they were acquired by ElM Street Technologies and everything about them has sucked ever since. And i mean EVERYTHING! They told noone about the sale, then raised their price $70 per month without notifying their customers, got rid of their client success managers (also without telling the customer) and don't actually offer the product at the price that they advertize online. Good luck trying to get ANYONE to call you back for any reason! I have tried emailing, calling, etc. I did finally receive a phone call back 8 days after my request, but it was from an anonymous # so i didn't answer. Called right back and no one answers the phone. Called a different line and the girl said she has no idea why they didn't notify us of the change of ownership, cost increase and service and product decrease. She said i am not eligible for the prices online. those are only available for new clients, but there is no fine print stating that on the website. Since she obvously couldn't help me, i asked for a supervisor. She said there is no one available and someone will call me back whenever they have time. I asked if that would be less than 8 days which is how long the last all took and she, of course, didn't know. DO NOT sign up for this company!!! They are beyond horrible and it's rediculously expensive and they make it impossible to cancel! Please don't get burnded like i did. I think they offered a decent product at one point but since aquired by ELM STREET TECHNOLOGY they absolutely suck! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Don't sign up, it is a scam! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OutboundEngine? They are really good at selling their product, that's a fact. After you sign up, forget about it, Their system is ridiculous, even the first meeting to explain what and how to use it is PURE BS - they do not answer calls, they do not call you back or reply to emails and, they will not cancel your contract - I mean, you can't - they won't speak with you and you have no access to the subscription/settings part. I NEVER had issues before like this, never been scammed like this! WORST COMPANY EVER!!!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OutboundEngine solving and how is that benefiting you? None! zero!

Nothing. This company was subpar in every way. Your posts will match everyone else who uses the service for your profession. Honestly you could pay a high school student to exceed their performance for the same price. Customer service is outsourced to overseas, which is fine... however, any help I needed had to be transferred to someone in the states and they took days to call back. Shady business practices and will be reporting them to BBB. Stay away, honestly, there are much better products out there, with better customer service, and if not... they at least don't make it impossible to cancel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OutboundEngine? The products are low quality and and the funnel is confusing for customers. Absolutely abysmal customer service, and even worse cancelation policy. Very scammy feeling. Absolutely do not recommend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OutboundEngine solving and how is that benefiting you? They are an email and social media company. Their service is supposed to help with outbound marketing and staying in front of your clients. It doesn't, and they won't let you cancel.

Sounded like it would be easy to use and most important to me, that I could have control over the content Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OutboundEngine? Turns out you can either use all of their content and add your content to it or you have to create all new content and format it in a program that isn't user friendly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OutboundEngine solving and how is that benefiting you? It didn't solve any problems. It created more since I was worried that their generic content was going to be pushed out via my social media accounts. They have a tough cancellation policy which should have clued me in that they know people will want to get out before as soon as they start using it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Senior Realtor Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/13/2022 "Terrible Content, Tons of Click-bate, Get ready for your email to hit every spam filter" 0/5 What do you like best about OutboundEngine? I love the idea and the promises that the sales team made to me. Increase email open by 2x, increase click-through by 50%. We actually saw a decline in both metrics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OutboundEngine? False advertising. Terrible content that wasn't applicable to my market, region, or hemisphere. All the lousy click bate. It actually became an embarrassment for me and my brand. They also don't tell you that they will filter out large swaths of your email contacts. If you have anyone with a Yahoo! email account, they are out. They have this logic to reduce bounce and spam, which was interesting because all my work email does now since using them is go into everyone's spam folder. So lame. So they failed on all accounts and all promises, you would think they would let you cancel, NOPE! you have to keep paying. So I asked them to at least stop sending emails out on my behalf, they agreed, and kept sending the terrible emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OutboundEngine solving and how is that benefiting you? The promise is that they would take the wheel at touching my sphere of influence and cultivate interest and monitor activity so people would bubble up to the top and you could focus on them. Their software platform did do that so it was pretty cool the way it worked. The content they used was just terrible so it didn't matter. Trying to get your own original content into the newsletter was less than easy or optimized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Affiliate Broker with Reliant Realty ERA Powered Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/12/2022 "This Company is TERRIBLE!" 0/5 What do you like best about OutboundEngine? This company is the opposite of innovative. They are basic, cookie cutter, and will lie to you to get your business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OutboundEngine? They lied about their services. On several initial sales calls, I explicitly told them I was not looking for a company that was going to have the same posts across the industry. For the first post, I signed into LinkedIn and saw 8 other Realtors had shared the same bs article. They assured me that my content would be original. It was not. When I reached out to customer service they simply set me up on a sales call to try and get me to utilize other aspects of their services. The newsletter. I was told on the front end that it would be highly customizable. It is not. customer service was always rude, and manipulative. They would not do anything to work with me. Just would ignore me for weeks then get some low-level hourly employee to call me with some scripted response to my questions where they would interrupt me all while just repeating the same lines over and over. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering OutboundEngine: I would avoid this company at all costs unless you enjoy giving away your money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OutboundEngine solving and how is that benefiting you? They have not solved any problems I have had. Quite the opposite.

They sold their product as an A2P SMS service but didn't provide it. Because it was sold as a completely different product, they canceled high up, Mitchell Reeder, canceled my service. He then informed me I couldn't receive a refund, because they didn't charge me the six-month cancellation fee although I had never even set up the service or had completed the on boarding call.

Owner/Managing Broker Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/1/2022 "Another Company that Makes it Hard to Cancel or Terminate" 0/5 What do you like best about OutboundEngine? The actual reps trying to help you set up your account are very helpful. For folks wanting to really work their sphere and database for referrals, etc., this product has potential. But watch out for the corporate trickery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about OutboundEngine? Despite giving written notice in Nov 2021 that I did not wish to renew in Summer 2022 they came up with a lame excuse on how I had to reach out again closer to the end of my contract. And, of course they couldn't mark my account for non-renewal BUT they can certainly click a button for autopay each month. Be wary and hope that if you try this product that you never need to cancel it because they will screw you for their own benefit. I Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is OutboundEngine solving and how is that benefiting you? I never got into Outbound Engine much because my business approach changed shortly after signing up to focus on growing the brokerage rather than my sphere or team contacts. I communicated that with an account rep very early on but it seems their management won't recognize those taped phone calls or written emails because it wasn't close enough to my contract expiration date.
