A self hosted solution with nearly a decade of development, Interspire’s Email Marketer is a powerful robust solution for lists of any size, or complexity. If you are serious about list management, timed autoresponders, and seemless newsletter mail outs, while being knowledgeable enough to host a solution yourself, this is the product for you.
I first started using Email Marketer in 2007 when it was branded as SendStudio (and shortly after that Sendstudio NX). Since then it has come leaps and bounds to become a goliath of an internet marketing machine with features I’ve honestly only seen available here.

List management is simple and intuitive (see below).
As is managing your autoresponders:
Deliverability is important, and I liked how Email Marketer went one step further and provided a spam filter style tool for scanning me emails prior to sending. Your email is analyzed for known spam keywords and the spam report shows you exactly what should be changed, ensuring your email is delivered to as many subscribers as possible.
Statistics display all the key data points: Opened, unopened, bounced, links clicked, etc.
Complex split testing is another standout feature of Interspire’s tool. Quickly see which of your campaigns perform the best to refine your message. You’re not limited to simple A/B testing but can test unlimited variations in one test. I found this tools essential for refining my CPA campaigns.
Perhaps the coolest feature putting Email Marketer ahead of the competition is the use of triggers. With triggers you can automatically convert leads to opportunities when they open a specific email, remove inactive leads from your list or even send a follow up email when a particular link is clicked – automatically.
All in all, Email Marketer provides everything you could want to run any type of email campaign, especially in mass quantities. Too many features to mention so check below for our list of Pros/Cons.
