Considering a SharpSpring alternative?

SharpSpring is a marketing automation platform that allows businesses to manage their multiple marketing channels in one place and is suitable for small, mid-sized companies and digital agencies.

VBOUT is an excellent alternative to SharpSpring because it’s suitable for any business size and marketing agencies that don't require extensive training.

Here’s a comparison between SharpSpring and VBOUT which shows the difference in terms of features, pricing and onboarding.

Email marketing

VBOUT allows you to import and manage unlimited contacts into the platform. You can also update your communication preferences by choosing which list(s) you would like to subscribe to or unsubscribe from. SharpSpring charges you based on the number of contacts in the database and pricing increases as you add more. Additionally with SharpSpring, for merge tags, you can add an unsubscribe link at the footer of your emails, but the option for your contacts to update their communication preferences is not available.
