Speechify is absolutely brilliant. Growing up with dyslexia this would have made a big difference. I’m so glad to have it today.

SendBlaster reviews

I can't find any better substitute in the mean time, the software offers a set of very good functionalities and fast performance in sending emails without any crashes. Small optimizations can take place especially for the Compose section and the TrackReports.

- Taoufiq L. Master's Student

We have a number of time constraint email campaigns and must run every week to an existing list of students. This is been easy to Import and Export data through our external CRM to maintain some consistency.

- Scott O. EVP

We send out all our meeting and other notices to our members via sendBlaster. Once set up correctly it just works. That said, to get it set up correctly involved a tedious correspondence.

Smore reviews

My overall experience has been great. I am having a fun time exploring new features. I feel like I am putting a personal touch on communicating with my students and parents. I feel very creative and I like the sense of community that having a class newsletter brings to virtual learning. You can see your analytics to track engagement. I am enjoying sending out updates in a way that is organized, creative and personal!

- Brenda K. Teacher

While I know of others who continue to use SMORE, for my purposes it was not as effective as others. It was, overall, very easy to use and send to others. It offers a great way to share information, links, and updates with many people in a single place.

- Mollie C. Teacher

I tried my best and just couldn't find anything that I did not like about smore. It's easy to use and most people can be expert users in a matter of minutes. The product also gives you the ability to view analytics which tell you how many views you have had. They also have a great support area built into the site and you really can't beat the annual pricing.

Pros & cons

SendBlaster

Pros
The ability to send mass emails cheaper than any other service directly from your own server
I've been doing email marketing since around the time that email has existed and this product provides a great solution for small quantity 50,000 emails per month
Great for managing contact database, clean concise form
Overall SendBlaster was a good email marketing tool
It allowed for pictures, links, HTML, etc to be inserted into the emails."

Cons
Horrible for not discussing the issue
Very unprofessional for leaving me hanging
On multiple occasions, i have lost my entire mailer builds
If you do not hit "save draft" repeatedly expect to lose your work over and over
Just clicking view HTML somehow damages your linked codes and replaces the standard HTML with some sort of encrypted script data
Some buttons will damage your entire project
For example, using a prebuilt template, then clicking "HTML" to view the code (to remove or add items) breaks your current draft."

Smore

Pros
This is a great newsletter tool
It's easy for someone to read newsletters posted on here
I started using the free version of Smore while I was a kindergarten teacher and my parents loved it
People that aren't very tech-savvy would have a really easy time navigating through this program
And it's really easy to design and make appealing
My overall experience has been great
I am having a fun time exploring new features."

Cons
It led to awkward page breaks that were not easily remedied as there was no easy way to see where they would fall
Smore is the most expensive tool that I pay for out of pocket as an educator
Smore is the most expensive tool that I pay for out of pocket
The cost may look intimidating when first looked at but users will find that at less than $80.00 yearly for the service, you are paying a minimal cost per month."q
