Ever since I switched to Beehiiv I have… Ever since I switched to Beehiiv I have seen instant growth in my newsletter on top of being able to use countless tools that aren't available anywhere else. My experience has been so rewarding that I recommend it to anyone looking to step up their newsletter game. Couldn't be happier with the switch.

SCAM: Multiple fake business use this service to scam I’ve been receiving scam emails from several business being sent out by this company, which are not only fraudulent junk mail but the emails themselves are illegally sent without an “unsubscribe” button. They all have links directly to the official Beehiiv website. They range from homewares to fake winnings to car insurance scams. BEWARE

Overpriced and Missing Features Beehiiv tries hard to be the 'Apple' of newsletters. Premium price. Focus on being 'user friendly'. Tons of missing customization features. Some of the most basic features like ask for a subscriber's first name when the sign up to your newsletter... are missing! Automated email sequences, which are either free with other providers until 1000 subscribers, or cost like $15/month on a basic plan... are only available on Beehiiv's $99/month plan. I personally spent a month on their 'free plan' setting things up, just to find out a lot of basic functions of email tools were simply not available, because... I'm not sure why. Also their email automation I spent time setting up, now I can only access if I pay the 99/month. but for that price, I don't really get the features I want. I cant even get access to the emails I created in there, to move them to a different platform. So frustrating. I guess they think it's cool to limit functionality? Feels more focused or exclusive? To me, it's just weird. And I'm an Apple user for the record!

*CANNOT CANCEL SUBSCRIPTION* *CANNOT CANCEL SUBSCRIPTION* In a nutshell, got billed for a subscription I cannot cancel. Sent email to support a few days ago but received no reply. (Support request ID: #50393, #50410) I still cannot cancel my subscription today so I'm sending a third support request today, let's see if they reply. If I can't cancel means I will be billed every month for a service I don't use anymore.

The best newsletter platform I've used I've used four different newsletter or email-building platforms in my career and beehiiv takes the cake (Mailchimp doesn't even get a slice). Editor is smooth and intuitive. Built-in website/blog/archive feature is great; first time I haven't had to manually copy/paste newsletter content to a blog myself. Team is helpful and there's so much good content on their website and YouTube channels as well.
