Great plugin and good support

We have been using this for a while and found it to be excellent. Recently had a problem which their support quickly proposed a solution for that related to how another plugin was set up.

Good idea

Nice with Woo

by In Touch Consulting

Not free

It’s kind of a trial, not free. And it made no sense, and wanted me to set up a website, when I just wanted to add mailing options for an existing website. And it seems to be totally linked to Woocomm
