Contact Constant Contact Support

I’ve been using CC for a few years now via the website. I’ve been alternating between using my laptop and iPad. Recently, on my iPad, I couldn’t access the button to upload graphics (it was always below the bottom of the screen), so today, I downloaded the app. I was creating a simple email notification that included details about an event. I had copied the when/where details but when I tried to paste into the app, the app shut down, without saving any of the other information I’d already entered. I tried twice, using different methods for the paste function. This is unacceptable. I’m paying a substantial monthly subscription, so I expect something as basic as copy/paste to work.

Now I learn that I can’t edit a draft created from the website version of Constant Contact in the app. From the customer knowledge base: “ Note: Only campaigns that were originally created in the mobile app or campaigns that were created using the Cross Device Editor on a desktop can be edited.”

Since the “Cross Device Editor” wasn’t rolled out until today (that I’m aware of) and I created the draft yesterday, I have to go back to the website (which doesn’t necessarily mean “created on a desktop”—tech writers, don’t make assumptions). This is very bad design.

I succumbed to the commercial first put out by this company indicating email sign up and traffic would flow in like crazy (and all I had to do was watch it come in). In fact, the sales team was far better at selling than the product team had product and staff to offer. What I thought I’d get for $50 a month was more sign ups and traffic. What I got was a novice ‘expert’ with less knowledge than I already had who would ‘talk’ to me weekly. Waste of money! But oh...for $300 a month I could get what the commercial (and name) offers.

I highly doubt it. No proven results as is so typical in this marketing aspect of the internet. Any company can make promises, and make it sound great..but like the rest, they don’t have any results to prove it for their clients and the cost is too high.
The entire commercial was false advertising.
Save your money. You’ll still be doing the work yourself. And they won’t be producing anything more than empty promises. No wonder the commercial was pulled off the air fast.

The app itself it’s not too bad but Constant Contact is horrible. I wouldn’t ever ever ever ever ever recommend it. It goes so incredibly slow that creating an email takes over three times as long as it should. I thought it was my computer so I tried on multiple computers and Internet systems and had other people tell me the same thing. When I contacted Constant Contact they told me that the save feature is so people don’t lose their work but it saves after every. single. thing. I type. And I mean everything even one word. I have to use it for work otherwise I wouldn’t be using it. If there’s anyway that they can update their system so it doesn’t save as often I will gladly sign something saying if I lose everything it’s OK because it seriously would be faster to redo everything multiple times!
