Infusion Soft

Aemilia · 02-06-2011, 11:26 PM

Hi Warriors!

I am interested in using Infusion Soft and will appreciate any advice. also FusionHQ has closed for new registrations, I am wondering if there is an alternative for their services?

What is it that makes you want to deal with Infusionsoft?

One of my offline clients uses Infusion soft and I manage alot of it for him. Its about $200 per month, and has alot of cool email tools and comes with a cart. They are here in Phoenix (Mesa actually) and have been down to their facility. You get a 'success coach' too, but hasn't been out to be all that great. Great software and tools if your mainly focused on email marketing. Otherwise, I'm betting there is cheaper and same quality stuff out there. In my opinion. I wouldnt pay $200 per month thats for sure

I've got a couple clients that use InfusionSoft as well (I'm in Gilbert) and have wanted to move over to their platform for my own business, but just can't justify the cost quite yet..

As soon as I can, I'm there. They're a great company to work with from my (albeit little) experience.

Lead generation mostly. I do some consulting as well, but that's more of a backup if I can't secure a client for a lead contract.

You?

Very cool man, I do local SEO and web design. Am much intereseted in lead gen too. Have been going back and forth on this pretty cool lead gen system I found on here, a WSO

I use Infusionsoft quite a bit, and I love it! If you have 10k+ contacts, I think it is worth they money. Until then, you can probably manage it at a much lower cost.

For me, the email automation is what makes it so great.

Hello benedicta,

I had Infusionsoft for a while and it totally sucked - especially for international users. They have trouble with special characters and emails and some internal fields get screwed up by using say öéàç etc.

As I am in Switzerland, it was unusable for German and French.

Also, their support sucks.

To build an offer and a form takes 4 hours+ and I am very technical ...

Any I hated their way of just forcing a lot of things on you. I cannot deal with companies that act like they are god.

If you look around, you will see a lot of people are glad when they stop using it. The cost is neither here nor there. You always have cost.

But if you want to get the most out of Infusion and stay sane, you have to employ a qualified consultant (i.e. $100/hour) to do the stuff. Then it will work well.

A business associate had severe email delivery problems and had to spend several thousand on the upgraded premium email package to get his own ip address & email delivery. This worked partly for him.

Anyway, I bought the lifetime membership of FusionHQ and it is great. Does everything fast.

But I have a problem, I am involved in a private vertical market software project for equipment manufacturers that has similar functionality to FusionHQ/Infusion and now it is ready for use.

So I do not need my FusionHQ anymore.

If you are interested ... let me know

Hi, I have learned of InfusionSoft from some clients, and from what I can tell, there are lots of good tools for email marketing, plus some web tools?
I have been using a system that does many of the functions for about $70 a month, and it has many of the same email marketing and tracking tools, perhaps lacking certain of the web tools (except for add-on options). For my needs, it does all I need and more.
Maybe you can PM me for more info.
Best wishes,
Dr. D.
