Having the time of the campaign on the calendar view would be very helpful. I've got 4 campaigns scheduled for next Tuesday and want to be able to easily determine if any are conflicting time-wise without opening each one individually. Thanks!

Please give your Constant Contact tech support person, who helped me today in an online chat a 5 Star rating for very good service. I missed the chance to do the review after the chat help. Thank you! Best wishes.

When you ask me to correct an error on my sending page, it would be very helpful if the error spot was highlighted in red. Thanks to your great customer service I was able to find, correct and schedule my email. Thanks.

This is a follow-up to my 5/22/24 call to Tech Support today. I deleted the contacts who have never opened ANY email in the past year, but your tools do not currently allow me to delete anyone from 2016 - 2023. This would be a great feature for us "old timers" who have been with you for many years.

I made the move from to Constant Contact and one feature that I really need and it is missing is the ability to set up email automations and set specific days of the week at which the emails should be sent out. For example, in my business I have one educational campaign that consists of two emails per week that go out on Tuesdays and Thursdays, it is a series of 28-30 emails total. Ideally, I will be able to register new contacts manually, or coming from FB ads, and regardless of when those contacts get on my database I want them to get on that automation and receive those emails only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Starting from email 1 on the automation. This is important to me because I am trying to schedule certain topics for specific days of the week. Without this feature there won't be any organization and contacts may receive more than one email on any given day, and none when they are supposed to, etc. Would it be possible to add this feature?

Today, I noticed that the email campaign builder UI has changed. The usual place to add a link to a button was removed from the menu on top of the text. It is now only available on the sidebar. Please bring back the usual placement of this feature under the three dots in the rich text options, or beside it. I believe that of all of the options for a button, adding a link is the most important to be easily accessible.

It would be great to see and understand traffic that are going to my event landing page, are we getting only views and no clicks, if I have low reg numbers are they even getting to registration or is my landing page not engaging enough, etc. As a paid product, there is very little additional insight you offer for events that will help users in their respective space. As a non-profit, we are driven by data to ensure we are spending appropriately and the lack of information on the successes and the flops is very disheartening.

Please add the ability to use anchors from links in the body of the email to another section of the same email. Thanks

I wish there was a way to add a user or two at a per month rate vs having to upgrade to a plan that is double the price for only 2 additional users.

Address field: Uttarakhand India - you abbreviate as UT. Should be UK

I've been a long time user of Constant Contact and the events system. Prior to the upgrade/update, it was great. Worked exactly how I needed it to. The new version is missing what I think are key functions for a successful event. I'm not totally convinced that this will work for us long term now. 1. Sending email when someone registers - the new system doesn't email me when someone registers for my event. The only way I know someone has registered is because a PayPal email is triggered as payment is required. I have to login and basically print out the information and save it somewhere. Past legacy events would email me specifically with all the information the registrant submitted - "xxx person has registered for your event!". This seems like a function that everyone would want or need. 2. Fee options - We use different fee levels depending on how many people register for our events. Ex. the first person = $500, any additional from same company = $400. There is no way to make one a requirement and others optional. I labeled the ticket as "this fee is required", but it isn't actually - I just have to hope for the best. The legacy events required that the first person is always certain a amount, the new system lists all ticket options as available to anyone. A quote I got back from CC with a past question was "It's as close to legacy as what we offer and is how our new system is intended to work. I know this doesn't solve for the problem that someone could try to purchase only the "additional registrants" ticket". 3. Promo code location - the location of where the promo code submission is at is hard to find and easily overlooked because it's not in an intuitive spot in my opinion. Multiple people registering for our events have missed it. I believe it would be better if it was listed under the Order Summary or underneath the ticket options. I think the new event system is good - I don't mind change. I just think there are some important system functions that hinder me from giving this the stamp of approval.

The CC search bar is the most inconsistent and ineffective search bar I've encountered... not only is it hit or miss whether it works on any given day, but even on days it does "work", you can literally copy and paste a campaign name verbatim and it won't show up in the search results, even though you were just looking at/editing it not 30 seconds ago. The same can happen when searching with a partial name. The search itself should also include the Deleted folder by default as those organizations with multiple users on the same account can sometimes delete campaigns by accident. We've chatted with Support several times on this over the last couple of years, but the functionality hasn't improved. Very frustrating for organizations that generate dozens of campaigns each day!

BrendaT5 · ‎05-16-2024

When an email is already selected in the "From" and "Reply To" dropdowns, the list should open up/auto-scroll (not sure of right terminology) to the already selected email address rather than automatically starting at the top of the dropdown list. See example below where dropdown starts at beginning of list rather than pre-selected email address.

We would like users to only see campaigns they have created. It get's confusing when multiple people create different campaigns.

MichaelT3746 · ‎05-16-2024

We would like the ability to build a multi-channel campaign ourselves where we can schedule emails and texts without AI doing it for us. There are certain events, like meetings, it would be helpful to send an email and a text so everyone receives the information. If these could be organized in one place and done on one page it would be much more effective for us.

JimS373 · ‎05-15-2024

If there isn't a way, I'd love one to quickly show all links within an email. Sometimes, I use one as a base and make changes - but forget to change a link or don't realize I set one to, for example, a photograph.

Fuji19 · ‎05-13-2024

It would be crucial to please have an option to have an upload "Suppression List" for our emails please! To exclude certain individuals from multiple lists. It makes it so much easier if we had this option rather than tagging/filtering out individuals who already engaged with previous emails that I would like to resend again. Or manually removing them from a list or even having to create a new list to suppress/exclude those engaged individuals.

Hello, I was trying to create a Save the Date and I wanted to add my own border design. I had found a free border using clip art, but Constant Contact doesn't allow that. Is this something that can be added in the future? Thank you,

PEIKids · ‎05-11-2024

My nonprofit's donor CRM software, Donor Dock, can automatically link any emails sent to donors to their record in Donor Dock from third-party email platforms. It simply requires me to enter the Donor Dock email address in the cc or bcc field of the email; unfortunately, this is not an option in Constant Contact. Would you please add the bcc option or consider some other integration with Donor Dock. Thank you.
