The sticker price is just the beginning. Here's what Campaign Monitor doesn't make obvious.
Even with 500 contacts, the Lite plan limits you to just 2,500 sends per month. Unlimited sending requires upgrading to Essentials or Premier.
Your bill increases at each subscriber tier as your list grows. Even inactive contacts count toward your plan limit.
Automation workflows, agency tools, and advanced template customization are only available on the expensive Premier plan.
Campaign Monitor's best prices require annual billing. Monthly billing costs more, and you're locked into a 12-month commitment for the discount.

Campaign Monitor offers automation workflows, a template marketplace, agency management tools for handling multiple client accounts, time zone optimized sending, and A/B testing. Email Marketing Pro focuses on core email marketing: building, sending, and tracking campaigns at the lowest possible cost.
