Promising, but a LONG way to go

Froged seems to be the one stop solution for your entire digital marketing needs. The features look very promising - but the poor execution means it's a LONG way to go.

For instance:
- There's no HTML editor for emails
- You can't save email text while typing it, so if (God forbid) you refresh your page accidentally, or just want to do something else, you end up losing your text. The only way to save it is AFTER you've moved on and got to the final stage of sending (where you can choose to "save", "schedule", or "send now").
- Features are EXTREMELY buggy, for instance - you attach an image to your email but the receiver doesn't get it - nothing; nada, no image. And when you're adding the image in the editor, it likes to dance around. Try moving it to the top - doesn't like it. Try centering it - doesn't like it. Cut and paste it elsewhere in the email - no can do; doesn't like it.

If you want your receivers to see your email address as the 'sender', you'll need to cough up €10-€15 a month (can't remember the exact figure they gave me).

This naturally brings the same issue present in MailPoet in that if your users end up unsubscribing for whatever reason, you could end up being banned from sending ANY emails from Froged.

It's certainly a good start, and well thought out in terms of use cases and what's needed. Unfortunately, I can't say the execution is well thought out nor well implemented. I'm gonna sleep over it and maybe watch for about a week. If things go on as they are, I'll be refunding all 3 codes unfortunately.

Thank you for your review!

I'm sorry to hear this, and of course, we will take everything into consideration, all your suggestions matter to us. We are always trying to improve to offer the best product possible, fixing what's needed and adding new features frequently.

Also, our team is working really hard on fixing any bug that may appear. You can always report it by clicking on the question mark button on the left bar.

Regarding the domain from where emails are sent from, we charge €15/month for your custom domain. However, as an AppSumo customer, you get a 30% discount (total of €10.50/month). If you haven't stacked 3 or more codes, that price includes branding removal as well.

Let me know if there's anything you need.

Have a great weekend.

Emily
