Here’s what Mailshake users dislike about the Mailshake software on G2

‘Tool design is not intuitive’

Mailshake users often find the tool non-intuitive and confusing, making it difficult for beginners and annoying for regular users. In contrast, Woodpecker is very user-friendly and simple to use, which allows even first-time users to set up campaigns in minutes.

‘Quickly becomes expensive”

Mailshake charges per user, so as you scale up the price of Mailshake will be greatly multiplied. With Woodpecker however, you can add as many users as you like, without ever having to pay more. Woodpecker makes team collaboration and scaling up easy without increasing costs.
