GetResponse review: email marketing and automation software

GetResponse is an email marketing platform that also builds landing pages, signup forms, websites, webinars and online courses. The trial page pitches its Marketer plan at marketers and ecommerce businesses, and the forms page describes GetResponse MAX as a solution for mid and large companies. You can start on a free plan for up to 500 contacts, and the paid plans on the trial page run from $15.58 to $56.58 a month, paid annually.

Quick verdict

If your business wants newsletters, signup forms and landing pages in one place, the Free plan covers a list of up to 500 contacts, and Starter includes unlimited newsletters and landing pages for $15.58 a month, paid annually. Advanced automation, advanced segmentation, abandoned cart recovery and the API are on Marketer at $48.38 a month. SSO, a dedicated IP address, transactional emails and unlimited users are on MAX2, which has custom pricing. The trial page doesn’t say how many contacts its paid prices cover, so check that before you budget. On phones, the iPhone app manages your GetResponse account. The Android app in our data is GetResponse Webinars, a separate app for joining and hosting webinars. Recent app reviews are too few to show a pattern.

Features

These come from the home page, the free trial page and the signup form builder page on getresponse.com.

  • Email: newsletters, autoresponders and a welcome email series, with an AI email generator and 200+ predesigned templates. The trial page says you can send from your own business email address. Email delivery scheduling is listed on Marketer.
  • Signup forms and popups: embedded forms for a footer, sidebar or top bar, popups and scroll forms, and hosted signup links you can share. You can start from a template or your own HTML and CSS, add custom fields and test different versions of a form. The forms page says signup forms are available in the Free plan.
  • Landing pages and websites: landing pages and a website builder, both with AI generators and a drag-and-drop editor. You can publish a site on your own domain, and annual plans come with a free custom domain for a year.
  • Automation and segmentation: Starter includes one automation workflow. Marketer adds advanced marketing automation and advanced segmentation, and the trial page describes emails triggered by behavioral data.
  • Ecommerce: Marketer lists promo codes and abandoned cart recovery. Separately, the trial page says you can connect your store and send emails with custom promo codes and product recommendations, without naming a plan.
  • Other channels: web push notifications (unlimited on Marketer), SMS marketing, paid ads, webinars, an AI course creator and premium newsletters. The trial page lists webinars, courses and premium newsletters in Creator, while the forms page lists webinars among its paid-plan features.
  • Integrations: the home page says 150+ integrations, while the site menu says 170+. The forms page names WordPress, Facebook, WooCommerce and Prestashop, and the site links to API docs.
  • GDPR (vendor claim): the forms page says GetResponse has “Bureau Veritas officially accredited GDPR compliance”, and lists consent fields and reCAPTCHA for signup forms. The privacy policy says the company is GetResponse S.A. in Gdansk, Poland, and that the recipients it shares data with are based mainly in the European Economic Area.
  • Support: the home page promises 24/7 support from its Customer Success Team. The trial page puts it differently: a 24/7 chatbot, plus the expert team Monday to Friday. Ask which applies to your plan.

The trial page shows each paid price “Paid annually” and says annual billing saves up to $41 a year on Starter, $127 on Marketer and $149 on Creator. It doesn’t say how many contacts those prices cover. On the forms page, the starting point is different: “The lowest plan starts at $13.30 /mo” for paid plans, with lists of 500+ contacts. Check the current price for your list size on the pricing page before you commit.

The free trial gives you 14 days of premium features with no credit card, and the trial page says you can keep using the Free plan afterwards. MAX2 is quoted: the forms page says to book a demo, and describes GetResponse MAX as a solution for mid and large companies with dedicated 24/7 support.

Mobile apps

GetResponse has a different app on each store in our data. The iPhone app, GetResponse App, is free, needs iOS 15.6 or later and was updated to version 5.26.2 on November 5, 2026. Its listing says the app gives you campaign analytics, lets you send emails, collect leads and manage contacts, and shows funnel results and webinar registrations. The same listing says it’s available to customers on all plans, including GetResponse MAX. Its plan list uses older names than the website, so go by the website for prices.

The Android app is GetResponse Webinars, version 4.0.2, updated January 26, 2026, with 100,000+ downloads and no ads. Its listing says you can attend or host online meetings, virtual classrooms and live or on-demand webinars, join with the PIN from your invitation without a GetResponse login, share the room with up to 500 live attendees and bring in up to 2 additional presenters. It asks for access to the microphone (“record audio”) and camera (“take pictures and videos”), among other permissions.

Pros (from app reviews)

Only a few app reviews in our data are from the last 24 months, so read these as single reports. The newest is from September 2025, and none has a developer reply.

  • Five-star reviews: two reviewers give five stars, one on each app. The Android reviewer of the webinar app says only “good one”.
  • Enough for a one-person business: one iPhone reviewer in September 2025 says GetResponse “has everything a Soloprenuer needs for customer support & connecting.”

Cons (from app reviews)

  • Couldn’t get into the app: one iPhone reviewer in June 2025 says signing up with Google or Microsoft didn’t work. The app then rejected the email and password they had just created, and a password reset did nothing.
  • Older iPhone reviews: reviews from 2013 to 2023 include several complaints that the app does less than the website, such as basic text-only emails or no way to edit autoresponder messages from the phone.

What happens to your data if you leave

The privacy policy says a Free account that isn’t used for 90 days in a row is disabled, and you then have 30 days to restore it through Customer Support. After you deactivate an account, GetResponse keeps your data for 30 days (Free) or 120 days (Paid) so you can reactivate. It then deletes the data from its main database, and encrypted backup copies are kept for up to another 120 days.

Who it’s for

A good fit if:

  • You’re a small business starting a list: the Free plan covers up to 500 contacts, with landing pages, a website builder and signup forms.
  • Online stores that want abandoned cart emails and promo codes (Marketer, $48.38 a month, paid annually).
  • Your site runs on WordPress, WooCommerce or Prestashop and needs signup forms.
  • You sell courses or run webinars and want them in the same account as your email (Creator, $56.58 a month, paid annually, up to 500 students).
  • You want to try it first: the trial gives 14 days of premium features with no credit card.

Look elsewhere if:

  • You need SSO, a dedicated IP address, transactional emails or unlimited users at a published price: the forms page lists them under MAX2, which has custom pricing.
  • You want the API or more than one automation workflow on Starter: the trial page lists one workflow on Starter and puts “Integrations & API” in Marketer.
