It is easy to use and create powerful email campaigns. You can always automate every campaigns with ease. > > **Cons**: There are no cons for Benchmark Email from my point of view. > > Benchmark Email even from the free tier offers some great features and an important stats. Support team is a great 5\* one and handles the request very fast. ----- ### "So far, so good" — 4.0/5 > **Martina** | *20 April 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: You can get set up quickly and start sending campaigns without spending time figuring things out. The interface is clear, and the workflow makes sense, which helps if you’re managing multiple sends or lists. Templates are simple but flexible enough for most use cases, and overall it feels like a platform designed to keep things practical and efficient rather than overcomplicated. > > **Cons**: The main downside is that it can feel a bit limited if you’re used to more advanced platforms. The feature set covers the basics well, but there isn’t as much depth when it comes to more complex campaign setups or deeper customisation. It also feels slightly early to fully assess performance and deliverability over time, so there’s still a bit of uncertainty around how it will hold up with larger or more demanding campaigns. > > Overall, it’s been a positive experience so far. The platform is easy to navigate, quick to set up, and does what you need without adding unnecessary complexity. It’s a good option if you want something reliable and straightforward for day-to-day email campaigns. That said, I’d still want to see how it performs over a longer period, especially when running more campaigns or scaling activity, before forming a fully settled view. ----- ### "Benchmark Email" — 5.0/5 > **Andrei** | *6 May 2024* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Setting up the account is easy, it has an intuitive user interface and starting the first campaign was very easy. The builder is optimized very good for mobile device as almost all users use the phone the most. Support is super and fast, they do a great job. > > **Cons**: Beside the price I can't say there are any cons. > > Is a great app, everything works great and support is helpful. ----- ### "Benchmark Does The Job\!" — 5.0/5 > **Cheryl** | *1 September 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I needed a platform where I could send emails to approx. 100 members of my private group all at one time. Through Benchmark I am able to communicate with my private group of friends without being labeled as SPAM. Mostly this is true, it still happens from time to time but is always easily cleared up. And it's free\! Plus I love that there's always someone around when I need help. > > **Cons**: When I'm away from my desktop and have to send emails from my phone, it takes a long time to maneuver through it. I have to turn my phone sideways for one section then turn it back the other way for another section, repeating this several times. > > I don't feel comfortable asking for help, or taking one of your workshops because I'm on the free plan. But I would like to learn how to use the different designs and templates, but you're more for marketing and advertising,,,which I do not do. Overall, I'm very satisfied with using Benchmark for what I do. ----- ### "Aiken Baptist Association" — 5.0/5 > **Shirley** | *26 August 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The fact that I can format the sections/pages to look like an online advertisement that is interactive. > > **Cons**: The fact that I can only download a PDF before sending the message, and that there are not other download format options, such as PNG. > > It is easy user friendly and easy to learn. I've been able to set up a monthly, interactive newsletter, which has made the Aiken Baptist Association current in today's world. ----- Page: 1 / 9\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/71152/benchmark-email?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/71152/benchmark-email) ## 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 | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
