Email Marketing platform

Quick GetResponse Review

GetResponse is an Autoresponder platform that offers a range of features that include:

Email Marketing
Marketing Automation
Webinars
Autoresponders
Landing Pages
Facebook Ads
Conversion Funnel
Ecommerce Integrations
Paid Webinars
Sales Funnel

GetResponse is designed as an email autoresponder service with basic landing page building functionality. In our testing, we've found the platform very limited when building pages and is not dedicated platform for landing page creation.

Key differences

OptimizePress vs Getresponse

Both OptimizePress and GetResponse offer page building solutions. However, the key difference between both is:

GetResponse Is an Email Autoresponder. OptimizePress is a Landing Page Builder.

This means every page you build with OptimizePress belongs to you and have complete flexibility and control over your business assets.

We are also a dedicated platform focused solely on page creation. This means we specialise in being the best landing page software solution in the market and pride ourselves with being one of the very first companies to do so.

With GetResponse, it is an Email Marketing platform. This means it is solely used as an email management solution and isn't designed mainly for building landing pages.

So in short, if you want the best in page creation, as well as complete control over your business, then OptimizePress may be the software solution for you. However, we understand that to get a better idea of what's on offer, the aim of this page is to help inform you of the features for each and make the best decision in your business moving forward.

Is OptimizePress Right For you?

OptimizePress vs GetResponse for your online marketing business

GetResponse might be an Email service, but this comes with tradeoffs. OptimizePress is a dedicated landing page platform (with more flexibility)

One simple, affordable, yearly fee

All of our plans are charged yearly as one simple fee.  This covers your product access, updates, support and gives you everything you need (Just add your own hosting)

Full control and ownership of your content

As we run on the WordPress framework, you install OptimizePress on your own hosting, meaning you maintain full control of your site and it's content

Easy to use, flexible page editor

Our OptimizeBuilder platform is a super easy way to create and edit your landing pages, sales pages and membership sites.

External plugins add power to your site

While we don't recommend loading your site with hundreds of plugins, WordPress has 1000's of options for you to add almost any kind of functionality you need

Risk of content loss if you cancel

As with all SaaS hosted platforms, you will lose your email & landing page content if you cancel their subscription.  Even if you cancel your OP plan your content still remains on your site.

Limited flexibility and clunky editor

The Getresponset landing page editor is clunky and hard to use if you want to do any major customization to your pages.

Only used for Email Capture

As Getresponse is an Email platform. Pages can only be created with the purpose to capture email addresses and can't be used for other purposes.  

OptimizePress 3 is extremely fast and easy to use. In fact, the editing experience is better than most SaaS apps that are more than 10x the price.
