What do you like best about StoneShot?

I like all the functionality that StoneShot has. It makes managing events and sending / tracking emails so much easier, and with such a professional look. I haven't ever used a system as good as this one before, and the support provided is top tier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StoneShot?

Not much to dislike. Occasionally we might think of a feature that is missing that might be helpful, however, StoneShot regularly check in with us to ask for feedback, and there hasn't yet been any request that we have made denied - they always look into feasability of what we ask to see if it can be implemented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is StoneShot solving and how is that benefiting you?

StoneShot helps to manage events and emails on a larger scale. Managing events is far easier with Stoneshot - you can easily keep track of emails that have been sent out - and then you can see who has seen your emails / who has responded etc. and then target follow up emails depending on the data. Emails are also easier to send to large groups of people - and the features such as 'Don't send to any contacts who have received email in last few days' and 'Suppression lists' are great.

What do you like best about StoneShot?

The user portal is very user friendly, and can be easily picked up by a relative novice. If anything is not clear, they have a wonderful team of relationship managers who are very responsive and help you get things done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StoneShot?

I don't dislike anything. I think maybe the only thing I might change is that the list and view screens are quite customisable, and as a data nerd, it would be helpful to have a bit more detail available on the sandard views. That said, it could just be that I have not found out how to do it yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is StoneShot solving and how is that benefiting you?

We had a number of 'cottage industries' where our sales teams manually invited people to events and promoted our funds.

We can now control and oversee communications, and reach big numbers at the touch of a button. For those sales people who are finding it hard to let go of their manual processes, there is a lot of MI which can be played back, to convince them to focus on their objectives rather than getting the messages out there.

What do you like best about StoneShot?

The product is really goood in terms of usability and is easy to learn. Clearly laid out user interface. Also, the support and training from the StoneShot is very good, and they are very responsive to any issues/queries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StoneShot?

StoneShot, I feel, can be guilty of trying to overcomplicate their product at times. They are always trying to innovate their product (which is admirable) but this also ,at times, comes at the expense of their core offering in terms of becoming slightly confusing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is StoneShot solving and how is that benefiting you?

Really easy to use/learn email marketing. Great events management tool. And also very useful marketing analytics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about StoneShot?

StoneShot is great to use. It's quick and easy to build our emails, especially when you have your own content blocks to work with. They are amazing to work with and have helped us develop and evolve our templates to ensure they follow best practice and deliver better email engagement rates and ensure event sign up is quick and easy. The MI and engagement scoring is also great and has allowed our sales teams to target the most engaged customers first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StoneShot?

I've not found any thus far. They are always evolving, so when we ask we'd liek it to be able to do something different they work with you to find the solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is StoneShot solving and how is that benefiting you?

As well has helping to raise brand awareness, key events and what our products and services have to offer, the engagement scoring allows us to give better leads to our sales teams to focus on first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about StoneShot?

The user-friendly drag-and-drop feature has been extremely beneficial when creating templates. I like how easy it is to share test emails with colleagues before they are scheduled to be sent to our audience. The fact we're able to have all the data in one place and not have to use multiple platforms saves so much time. The customer service is also exceptional and response time is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StoneShot?

I've not come across any downsides using StoneShot, all are very positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is StoneShot solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reaching a large audience and multiple lists is imperative as this saves duplicating work. We're able to create events and send marketing emails from this one platform which allows us to view metrics regularly and with indept information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about StoneShot?

StoneShot is a great platform that allows us to send and track our email campaigns in a clear and easy way. The support team are exceptional - very quick to respond, instantly understanding of our issues and accurate with deploying solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StoneShot?

Sometimes their analytics can be confusingly laid out, which means it takes some time to find what we are looking for. It can also be frustrating when updating a long email as each section must be saved individually, rather than defaultingly autosaved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is StoneShot solving and how is that benefiting you?

StoneShot enables us to easily send our newsletters and track our overall campaign. We can compare our statistics to other managers in the industry, which is invaluable information for benchmarking our performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about StoneShot?

The system itself integrates well with our Salesforce instance. We have also been able to access the API to develop on our website. Matt and the team are always on hand to provide advice and support. Response times are excellent and they take the time to understand our issues before seeking a solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about StoneShot?

As our team of users expands I need to ensure I have enough licences to provide access. Integration could be more straight forward and buillder not as intuitive as previous version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is StoneShot solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quick build of templates and release to contacts. Can create events and automated emails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
