"Adestra's platform is simple and user-friendly, yet delivers exactly what we need. "

4.5/5

What do you like best about Upland Adestra?

The chat feature is great. It offers a wonderful alternative while working on time-sensitive projects that require real-time support vs. email. Even for the largest of lists, campaigns are delivered quickly and efficiently and the analytic piece has proven very easy to integrate from our developer's perspective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With Adestra, we've gained the ability to increase the volume of our campaigns, while seamlessly managing the execution and analytics of multiple campaigns across many of our client's marketing efforts. As a somewhat new user to Adestra, my personal transition has been very fluid and has allowed me to singlehandledly manage the email marketing efforts for our organization.
