## Smartlead Reviews
  ### 1. Best Marketing Automation Tool with Competitive Price

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kishore C. | Demand Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Smartlead is a very good marketing automation tool. It helps in sending emails by just setting the automation in the tool. Smartlead can be integrated with other CRM tools to import the data. We can also upload the CSV file of the prospects list in Smartlead. This tool is very user-friendly and we can run the campaigns daily on Smartlead by just setting the campaign settings. Smartlead Master Inbox helps in checking all emails in one place even if the emails are from different campaigns.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Nothing to dislike about Smartlead. Good features

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Marketing automation tools help in setting multiple campaigns at one time. We can run multiple campaigns at the same time with different zones and different industries. Unlimited number of prospects can be uploaded in Smartlead with the help of CSV file. We have the option of checking duplicate prospects which are already there in another campaign.

  ### 2. Worst Email Outreach Automation on the Planet

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Environmental Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 20, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Literally nothing. It is more expensive than other tools and does not perform.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

I have read a couple of similar reviews and decided to also speak up. 

We have been running our campaigns through SmartLead for the past 3.5 months +-. 

At first, everything was fine, we got decent results, nothing special. 

All of a sudden. Our results plummet as we start a second campaign. FYI, we had 6 emails and at the time the reputation according to SmartLead was close to 100% for all of them.

Now just so this doesn't end up in a book-long rant about how bad the software is and ESPECIALLY the Customer Support, here are our current results of our active campaign:

3,457 sent - 22 replied(2%)  -19 bounced(1.74%)

I have personally been battling with customer support for weeks - they blame ESP, our my copy, or spam words, or missing spintax. 

Our copy is short, we send it as plain HTML, we have checked the spam words internally via SmartLead and externally via MailMeteor, we use spintax in every stage, every variant. 


Do not use this software. Customer Support is the most useless thing they have as they only blame external factors that they have no ability to change or send you a blog post link with a 'common issue'.

Use snov, or instantly, or brevo, or klaviyo. just not this garbage. 


Additionally, their software is very buggy, every third time I open a campaign I cant see my sequence or other tabs, very clunky and just bad.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I wish Smartlead would help me solve my problems. But instead they have created more problems.

  ### 3. Great experience with Smartlead!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Business Supplies and Equipment | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 10, 2025

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Their team is very supportive and always gives helpful suggestions according to my real needs.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

As I understand, Smartlead doesn’t have a standalone email verification module. The verification feature only works when a lead is created or imported.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Email drop sending

  ### 4. Their Smart Sender mailboxes go to spam

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 06, 2025

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Nothing, it was a terrible experience.  Even their warmup didn't work.  Most of the messages don't get delivered

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Everything.  Terrible product.  Terrible support.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It isn't benefiting me.  it caused more problems than it solved

**Reviewed Date:** February 27, 2025

What I like about Smartlead is that it's really built for scale. Easy to manage thousands of email accounts, multiple campaigns. Super nice being able to whitelabel for clients as well.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

I think the UI could be a bit nicer looking.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartlead is helping me and our clients manage thousands of email accounts, send thousands of emails and can easily manage many campaigns. Great for managing email accounts, campaigns, monitoring deliverability, automations.

  ### 8. GTM Engineer

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 17, 2025

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

The recent global analytics release has been a gamechanger for me. Running outbound at scale can become messy and this cleared it up pretty damn well.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Can be slow sometimes but that seems to have cleared up recently.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Analytics are so easy to see at scale here.

  ### 9. The most frustrating experience I've had with any software, across any category. This is the worst.

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 27, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

The feature set that they claim to have appears to be solid and tricked me into buying it. It claims to work as a standard email marketing tool but fails in many ways.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

They product is so insanely buggy, and the support is next to useless. Basic features like email warming, properly sequencing emails, syncing with CRM, app notifications, email formatting - all features Smartlead markets and claims work, do not work as advertised and their support will constantly blame the ESPs (when other competing solutions do not have similar issues).

I thought I was able to implement it quickly, but then it turned out their warming feature wasn't doing anything, because I saw that my emails from a new account were being bounced but SmartLead claimed they had 100% deliverability (which was impossible considering most emails were bouncing). Makes it clear their claims to remove emails from spam folders were likely false as well.

The amount of error popups I see in the tool when doing anything, including importing contacts, updating sequences, or anything in normal use is insane and impoosible to keep up with. Using this tool is exhausting on many levels.

For each of the noted problems above, I had to reiteratre the bugs many times with documentation to support, and easily spent 10+ hours / month showing the problems with support who took many cycles to try to understand the issues, and at the end they would never address any core usubility issues.

I have never had a more frustrating experience with a piece of software and can't wait to fully remove it from my stack once my sequences are done with them.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They claim to help marketing email deliverability, but their bugs have only caused my deliverability to get worse.

  ### 10. Promising setup, good featureset and nice UI, but let down on execution

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

The UI is intuitive, and SmartLead has all the features I was interested in. It has a well-rounded offering for its price point (basic plan). Onboarding was fairly easy, and the A/B testing feature is useful. Support articles and resources are overall pretty solid and has decent coverage

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Almost immediately I ran into a bug which interrupted my first campaign and unfortunately meant I was getting no value from the software. The resulting support experience has been very frustrating and has left me without a resolution or reimbursement for over a month despite regular follow-ups and patience from my side. It took a while before I could get acknowledgement of the issue, with a few misunderstandings/misdiagnoses before getting my point across - which I think is fine, misunderstandings happen and maybe I wasn't explaining it clearly enough - although the agents were a bit fast to pass the blame to my ESP (which ultimately had no blame in the matter) and it took a few times for me to point things out/repeat myself for the message to land. Subsequent communication has been vague and hands-off with claims that it is being treated with high priority and being followed up with the dev team but in reality there have been 0 proactive replies, and no progress updates, I only receive replies when I'm actively chasing.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Email outreach, to help grow my business and reach new leads.

**Reviewed by:** Danyal M. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Bro not gonna lie, I'm a piece of work when it comes to wanting support cause I like being in the know-how of EXACTLY what's happening

My man Vaibhav Founder of Smartlead - though with all of his success is still putting out fires in customer support.

I gave this man a migraine from my questions but guess what, he didn't care, he kept supporting me through the AM

If he gives this much love to us on the customer side, this man's significant other must believe she is the queen of this world with the support he gives.

In all fairness, tremendous support and effort from the Smartlead team - killing the game.

The platform is crazy easy to use and implementing is a no brainer - there is so much support via the team and online content through the web.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

That I don't get 24/7 access to the man himself haha but honestly not much - overall it does what its supposed to do. 
Sure I can say features and integration but having world class support truly makes or breaks a great software.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Solving my outbound campaign deliverability and overall performance
I used others but none come close especially because of the support

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Stephen O. | Director of Sales Marketing, Marketing and Advertising, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Smartlead's email follow-up automation is a time-saver for crafting and delivering outreach sequences.  

Pre-designed templates are cool and a helpful advantage, especially for those new to cold emailing.  

Smartlead emphasizes its technology to boost email deliverability, a significant concern for cold emailers.  

Smartlead's analytics that provide insights into email warming and campaign metrics

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Some users report a high number of emails ending up in spam.  

The interface isn't the most intuitive. If you're new to cold email platforms, there might be a learning curve involved. 

Customer support response could be improved

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartlead streamlines my cold email outreach, freeing up valuable time.  Automated sending and follow-ups mean I can focus on supporting my Clients to close deals, not managing email logistics.

It also boosts engagement and gets my client's emails seen.  Features like email warming and insightful analytics help me craft campaign messages that resonate and lead to more opens and responses.

I don't have to worry about emails getting lost in spam filters.  Smartlead helps ensure my outreach lands in inboxes, maximizing my chances of connecting with the right people.

And as my outreach grows, Smartlead scales with me. It efficiently handles larger campaigns, so I can focus on building relationships and generating leads without getting bogged down by administrative tasks.

  ### 26. Smartlead - all the features, not great performance

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rob K. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

SL is completely scalable and affordable. It offers drip campaigns, email rotation, email verification, and a versatile API integration.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Smartlead does not handle incoming attachments, which is a killer if you must collect documents from prospects. Actual performance has been poor in terms of email delivery and response. as compared to other platforms. The editor is clunky. The credit limits for leads is prohibitive for a high-volume shop. We have not found customer service to be responsive to our needs and have had to reach out unsuccessfully multiple times. There is no master dashboard or "to-do" list for follow-up, so you have to spend a lot of time searching inboxes for interested prospects, which is time-consuming. Best for low-volume shop. As mentioned the ROI has been poor. It may be that email marketing really is dead as some has proclaimed. We get much better response from SMS.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Automating email drip campaigns.

  ### 27. Helped me grow my business fully

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Imran I. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

the pricing could be reduced for users for some of thte add ons

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

deliverability and handling clients

  ### 28. Solid Tool with a Caring Founder

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nico H. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

1. I like how the founder, Vaibhav, genuinely cares about user experience on the platform. He is constantly making upgrades to smartlead based on user feedback in the user Slack channel. 

2. The workflow in most areas is very intuative.

3. I like the ability to use AI to categorize replies. I feel like this feature could be made more robust and intuitive to use when it comes to training the ai (which is a cool new feature) and showing it how to recognize custom categories, but it's still very helpful as is.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

1. I can't shift click to batch select multiple accounts. 

2. The support chat used to get me responses really fast, now it often takes 4+ hours to get a response from support.

3. The email template feature is very unititive and not the most fun to use. It seems like I have to override a preset template in order to create my own, rather than being able to easily create and organize templates myself.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helping me run my cold email lead gen agency at scale.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

I don't love how the "client" feature is tied to analytics, so that if I want to give a client reports, I gotta "buy" a client slot.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Books me meetings and deals. For me and clients.

  ### 30. 👍Unlimited email connections; API; deliverability 👎 Lead filtering; analytics; in-app support

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Wes H. | Head of Growth, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 30, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Can add an unlimited number of emails, which is awesome

Extensive API documentation and webhooks

Market leading deliverability

Out-of-the-box integrations with automation platforms like Clay.com

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

No lead-timezone-based sending schedules, so we need to duplicate campaigns across all the timezones we send to (x5) and route leads accordingly - this is a big pain.

No weekday-based sending scheduling. For example, we cannot set a different Monday sending schedule (afternoon only)

High-quality in-app support is inconsistent

Big pain in filtering leads (eg. by company name/domain), so it takes an unnecessary amount of time to find leads and pause campaigns for specific leads/accounts

Global analytics are also a bit of a pain to use/not always insightful - can only show data for max 5 campaigns at a time

Default analytics can be bit misleading/not industry standard - e.g. positive response rates are calculated as a percentage of leads that opened emails, not total leads put in a campaign (industry standard). No ability to create custom metrics so left with what is out of the box


Hubspot syncs/integration is inconsistent (works 80% of the time though) - emails don't always log despite adding Bcc address and enabling Hubspot logs

Platform can often be unstable - eg when opening leads/email account setting in different tabs, they sometimes get stuck 'loading'. So need to do one-by-one

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sending cold emails at scale at a reasonable cost

  ### 31. 2 Year User, Easy to Use, Great Community

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dustin E. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 26, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

I've been using SmartLead for two years, and it has truly transformed my outbound experience compared to other sending software I've tried in the past. The platform is exceptionally user-friendly, the customer support is outstanding, and the features are what keep me loyal. What impresses me the most is how effortlessly I can set up and launch a campaign. The community and training resources included with the subscription are also fantastic, offering value that's on par with what I've paid for elsewhere. I highly recommend incorporating SmartLead into your outbound prospecting strategy. It's simple to connect our APIs from other platforms, and I use it daily. It integrates seamlessly with ListKit and the other software I rely on.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Having other channels integrated natively would be helpful to add in other outbound channels into the sequence, but it can be done via API.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Quickly set up outbound lead generation campaigns

  ### 32. Good tool for cold emailing

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** John A. | Sr Account Executive, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

It's good at what it does, cold emailing. Adding in leads to email is fairly simple as well as building campaigns. Also, I like you can add multipe "clients" and teammates at no extra cost.

It's also easy to use for the most part.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

It's abit clunky. Youhave to click "edit", scroll to leads to add in more leads to an ongoing campaign every single time which is a bit counterintuitive vs other tools like outreach. 

Also the analytics is a bit wonky. I've noticed I'll have almost a 0% open rate until the second email in a campaign sends which is a new development. It never was like that before.

Also I WISH it had the functionality of apollo where they had a chrome extension and I could scrape someone from linkedin and drop them directly into a campaign/sequence

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cold emailing. It's giving me one single view to run multiple campaigns from multiple email accounts

  ### 33. SmartLead: The Perfect, Cost-Effective Solution for Email Marketing Agencies

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mukund G. | Managing Partner, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

SmartLead has been a game-changer for our email marketing campaigns. Its intuitive interface makes it easy to design and send emails, while the detailed analytics help us track and optimize our efforts. The automation features save us a ton of time, and the deliverability rates are excellent. We’ve seen a noticeable increase in engagement and conversions since we started using it. The customer support team is responsive and knowledgeable, always ready to assist with any issues. Plus, it’s cost-effective and has all the features I need to run an agency. Highly recommended!

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

My only gripe is the charge for client access; reducing that would make it perfect.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

SmartLead has revolutionized how I manage email marketing for my clients. It allows me to handle hundreds of inboxes and campaigns seamlessly from one platform.

  ### 34. Decent Platform for Cold Campaigning

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Antonio . | Freelance Sales &amp; Marketing Manager, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 13, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

1. UI is great - simple, organized, no unnecessary information, and functional.

2. Sending through Smartlead is great. Campaigns are easy to create, organized, and filled with new leads, and there are not a lot of bugs compared to Instantly.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

1. Warmup is not the best. It's missing some basic features such as scheduling, and importance marking, but more than anything it's ineffective. We've warmed up between 100 and 150 new email addresses on Smartlead and all of them had 100% domain reputation. New email addresses should have a lot lower domain reputation with a lot of messages landing in spam so they could be pulled out from spam, marked as important, being read, etc. to teach ESPs that these emails are safe. 

We've had 5 sets of emails having a sudden drop in deliverability from 40-90% to 10-20% in a matter of days (on successful campaigns), and according to their Slack community, a lot of people experienced identical issues. Glockapps and Mailreach tests for these addresses showed specific ESPs were marking our messages as spam. This is an indication that there's no proper ESP pooling established in the warmup process.

2. Support is very slow and unpredictable. Sometimes it takes 24-48 hours to get a response, other times you receive it within minutes. Apart from that, their communication could be better. 

A couple of months I was reporting an issue they couldn't find a problem with and after several of my messages pointing out specific issues their response was "Okay mate". That was a response from their CEO, not some random support agent. In the Slack community, he tends to be arrogant and condescending to people reporting issues (as I expect his response will be here), and then when they release new features as a fix to these issues he presents them as GROUND BREAKING, INDUSTRY-LEADING features. It's a cheap strategy.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Automating cold outreach

  ### 35. First bad review ever

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 10, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

API, haven't used it yet but what I've heard it's really good and powerful tool. I also like that it was really easy to create custom filters so you can mark replies as anything you would like.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

I use Smartlead every single day and I absolutely hate it. 

I was forced to use Smartlead as my emails didn't work in Instantly for some reason.

Use of Smartlead is really complicated compared to Instantly and it has lot of bugs - Sometimes you cannot create new campaigns and sometimes you don't received any replies to your emails, today all of my leads just lost their categories. Sometimes these are global bugs but no one notifies you about them.

Sometimes when you add new variant into your campaign, you cannot delete it so you are forced to create completely new campaign if you don't actually need the Variant anymore. The mobile app doesn't give any notifications so it's useless. It's not easy to use. 

Also, it's really hard to reply into emails for 2 reasons. Reason one being that when you reply, the reply box actually blocks you from seeing the message that you are going to reply for. The second reason being that new replies isn't on top of the new email messages, they are just in random place and you need to find them.

Customer support is sometimes ok, sometimes your case is just forgotten. 

I thought I would never write bad review but Smartlead crossed the line haha

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartlead solves the issue that I can get all my email replies into the same place and I can reply for them in the same place, also. I can also create email campaigns in Smartlead.

Both of these benefits me a lot because I cannot do my job without these options.

  ### 36. A gamechanger for email

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Maya H. | Chief of Staff, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Smartlead has allowed our team to send 10x more emails than we were able to previously and so without hurting our domain. Its an easy setup and easy to use.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

I think Smartlead could better educate their users on best practices and on what is considered a successful campaign. I learned last week that our campaigns are underneath Smartlead's standards of performance and we are now experiencing higher bounce rates. We could have iterated faster while sending fewer emails if we had known this in advance 

It would be nice to have leads add into Hubspot if they've replied to an email (excluding OOO replies)

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartlead allows us to outreach at a higher volume without hurting our domain

  ### 37. Can't hire people to work on campaigns

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ryan F. | Mortgage Broker, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

System works, the integrations are nice, and I've seen great results. I like the subsequences too. Overall amazing platform.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

You can't log other people out of your account by changing password, etc. You can't hire someone to work on campaigns then remove them from your account. Massive security risk. The only way to log out of other instances is to migrate to an entirely new smartlead account. New email, everything. So be careful who you let access your account. that data is there for them, forever.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They help me contact leads at scale without landing in spam.

  ### 38. Encouraging pilot so far

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sean J. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Liscensing and features are very agency friendly and they are constantly adding new features

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Some of the UI is confusing, but we are early days and still getting used to it

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1) Single login to manage all of our customers in one place
2) Customer portal where each customer sees only their data
3) Master inbox will replace a point solution for inbox aggragation
4) Multi-customer tenancy will allow us to track replies and follow-ups in Smartlead vs. the data re-entry we've been doing to date from multiple competitor instances into a single database
5) Liscensing is very friendly for spreading sending accross a bunch of mailboxes which is becomming ever more important for deliverability
6) New features they are adding like email verification are making Smartlead even more of a one-stop shop
7) Heaven't gotten into API integrations yet but understand that allows this to be even more of an automated agency hub

  ### 39. Smartlead has been a smooth experience from beginning to end. Very intuitive UI/UX.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jordan B. | COO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

The best thing about Smartlead is the simplicity of inbox setup & organization.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

The most frustrating thing about Smartlead is the inbox selection setup. You cannot mass select chunks of inboxes from the list. You either have to check the boxes 1 by 1 or select all of them at once. You cant shift+click or ctrl+click the list.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartlead solves the headache that comes with email marketing at scale. It makes box setup and organization seamless and allows you to manage multiple campaigns across many different verticals with ease. When paired with services like Inframail and Maildoso, Smartlead is the best when it comes to medium-sized mass email marketing automation.

  ### 40. Revolutionized Inbox Management

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ronald N. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

SmartLead.ai has transformed the way we manage our inboxes. The evolution of their inbox management features is impressive, making email handling more efficient and organized than ever. The smart categorization and automation capabilities have saved us countless hours, allowing our team to focus on more strategic tasks. Their intuitive interface and seamless integration with our existing tools make it a must-have solution. Highly recommend SmartLead.ai for anyone looking to streamline their email workflow.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

Customization: Although the tool is powerful, it might lack some advanced customization options that certain businesses require for their unique workflows.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Scheduling more qualified meetings. Allowing me to stay in touch with my clients in real-time

  ### 41. Easiest and most intuitive to use automation tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andrei R. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

I've been using Smartlead for 6 months, and I'm consistently impressed with its functionality and monthly improvements. The team behind it is fantastic. The creator is deeply engaged with the cold email community, sharing helpful content and hosting weekly office hours. Smartlead combines robust features with a supportive community, making it an indispensable tool for anyone serious about cold email marketing. It's a no-brainer that keeps getting better.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

I would like more integrations instead of the 3 they have. Although you can make your own integrations with make.com and a webhook from Smartlead so even that isn't a big issue. But I'm sure they're working on this

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Cold outreach

Currently we use Attio.com as our crm  there is no direct intergation with Attio so far.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartlead is solving several critical problems in our outreach email campaigns, providing significant benefits to us:

**Reviewed by:** Rithesh M. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

It's pretty easy to set up, and get a campaign live. The support is really good even though it is chat based. It's also really powerful in terms of customization preferences, and there are a lot of resources available. I would recommend it to anyone trying to scale up their email marketing! I am using it daily and have encountered very few issues. Set up was a breeze and it is easy to integrate with Gmail or Outlook.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

A few quirks but no deal breakers. While it is far from perfect, the support makes up for it.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Reaching our ICP at scale.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mark H. | Marketing Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

We've been using Smartlead everyday in our business for about a year and have been very happy.

Smartlead is easy to set up and once you've created a campaign, very simple to duplicate and edit, saving a huge amount of time.  

I also like the UI, it lets the user quickly see which campaigns are effective and which ones need fine-tuning.  This is especially helpful when running different versions of the same campaign - you can switch to the most effective campaign instantly.

They know what they're doing, we get results, which means our emails aren't ending up as spam.

**Reviewed by:** Avik G. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2024

**What do you like best about Smartlead?**

Literally everything. I was using another very great platform and was trying to see how SL will go just for the sake of trying. And, from there everything changed. Never looked back into that platform even though I still have their subscription. The API is the main reason I came to SL and to be honest love absolutely everything - from community to their support.

**What do you dislike about Smartlead?**

I think UI and UX can be improved - apart from that everything is great.

**What problems is Smartlead solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helping me and my clients create and launch scalable client acquisition system.
