What Sets Cyberimpact Apart
While both platforms can be trusted to offer all the essentials your business might need to keep an email marketing strategy, Cyberimpact stands out for several reasons, some of which greatly impact Canadian businesses.
Unlimited users: Perfect solution for growing businesses
Like several email marketing solutions, Constant Contact has a user limit to each plan. The Lite plan (starting at $17) has only one user available, and to have more users you would have to jump to the next available plan, the Standard (starting at $48), and unlimited users are only available to Premium users (starting at $109).
If you have no other reason to upgrade, that’s a 148% price increase, which can be pretty hefty for both small businesses and large organizations.
If you have up to 2,500 contacts, this is how much you will pay to use Constant Contact…
At Cyberimpact, unlimited users are available to all accounts in all plans. Yes, including the Free plan. This feature allows businesses of different sizes and industries to collaborate seamlessly.
With multiple users, several departments can use Cyberimpact for internal and external communications.
Constant Contact has limited features for a higher cost
The US email solution has various great features for email marketers, from segmentation to A/B testing. However, the platform forces you to pay premium fees for basic features on Cyberimpact and other email marketing solutions.
Basic features for email marketing success, like segmentation and scheduling emails, are only available on the Standard plan on Constant Contact, starting at $48.
With Cyberimpact you can enjoy those features at no cost, a great option for marketers and businesses dipping their toes on email marketing. More features are available on each Cyberimpact plan, making its cost-benefit higher than Constant Contact.
Advanced automation features
Marketing automation is a versatile feature. When well used, it greatly impacts the results of any email marketing strategy. Even though both platforms offer marketing automation, it is not one of Constant Contact’s most relevant features.
Users of Constant Contact’s Standard plan (starting at $48) can use a few automation templates, which is a great way to get started — however, users of Cyberimpact’s Plus plan (starting at $36.75) have all the flexibility of this user from the get-go.
Cyberimpact has several automation templates and you can create custom scenarios that fit your business needs.
Data storage in Canada
With the growing global concern for data privacy and storage, you must consider how your email marketing solution deals with your and your contacts’ data.
All data processed and stored by Constant Contact falls under the United States Patriot Act, which states that “U.S. federal agencies such as the NSA or CIA may access all data located in the U.S. without personal consent or a court order”.
Luckily, Canada has different laws protecting all personal data collected from private-sector businesses. In other words, when your data is stored in Canadian servers — like Cyberimpact’s — your and your client’s data are safe and cannot be used without your consent.
Our team is well-versed in all online data and email regulations, such as PIPEDA, CASL and Quebec’s Law 25, to help you stay compliant at every step of your email marketing journey.
Conclusion
Constant Contact and Cyberimpact are very different platforms, despite having some similarities. They both offer email marketing solutions, however, the first is focused on developing its CRM platform with some marketing features and targets larger organizations with a high budget.
On the other hand, Cyberimpact focuses on making email marketing easy and accessible. You will find an intuitive platform and affordable pricing that fits any budget. It also creates a well-rounded experience offering all the tools email marketers might want, from segmentation to marketing automation.
