The verdict is still out

I bought this tool after hearing their webinar. The webinar sounded like this tool was a must-have so I stacked up 5 codes after comparing it to other tools that I am currently paying for. I am disappointed that there is no CRM built in but because I have a major CRM right now it works. The CRM I currently pay for only allows for one domain, but I have 3 brands. It is also hard to send campaigns out of because even though I have the tags it just does not work for 3 brands. This tool is perfect if you run several brands and want to send each subscriber through a campaign. Unfortunately, you can tell right away this was a tool that was built from the inside out. It was not really built from the customer in it was built from the internal user out. The UI screams that. The UI and set up basically says (you should know where this is or how to do this already) A comparison for older tech heads would be (it has the power of Lotus Notes, but lacks the ease of use like MS Outlook) With all of that said, the tool has so much potential I just think that it is being marketed wrong. I think charging for onboarding is not a very good move seeing that the tool is built unlike any other tool ever seen on AppSumo. The integrations are limited. Lacking at least the bottom feed like Zapier is really not good. Sure I stacked 5 codes and gave it only 3 tacos. I stacked 5 codes because for a multi-brand user it is exactly what the doctor ordered. I need this exact tool in my toolbox because I have multiple brands. I just don't think everyone on Appsumo will need this tool. AppSumo users are looking for white-label and agency features or a niche product that they can easily incorporate into their current tech stack. This tool has neither. Is it a bad tool, No it works like they say it should work. Does it have a CRM in the year 2020? Sadly disappointed, but no. Does it have auto-posting to social media sites? Yes, but so does the last 5 apps that came to sumolings over the last year. If they added even a small CRM this tool would have very good legs. If they made onboarding smoother or added at least youtube recorded onboarding then they could have at least earned 4 tacos. Once I get into the tool more I may come back and add a taco, but the learning curve is preventing me from doing things easily so it is 3 tacos right now. The good news is if you run multiple brands and want to market to all of them then you must at least get 3+ codes. It is a must-have for multiple brands. A Must!
If they update the training then I will move it up to 4 tacos.

PROS:
-Really good for multibrand email marketing
-True emailer using your own email domain
-If upfront time is spent learning the unusual workflow this tool could be very good at what it does. Very Good!

CONS:
-The learning curve is the most difficult I have seen for an app sumo offer
-Email set up is the most difficult I have seen for an app sumo offer
