Bento's community is what sets it apart from others. The founder is supportive, close to customers, and listens to them. I feel like my feedback is heard; I'm participating in it's growth.
The first thing that you notice in comparison to other tools - customer service and constant customer feedback-based improvements. This tool is created for it's users.
I switched recently so I've only used like 5% of Bento's features, but it's ALREADY way more powerful than my previous tool. Looking forward to getting into the more advanced features soon!
I get more of my fans to see my emails and I can tell what they are interacting with most to better help me send them content they like.
Just switched to Bento earlier this year, and my email open rate went from 24% to 56% in a month! Click rate went from 2% to 5%! Not sure what magic is at work here, but works for me...
With Bento it's like having the founder @jessethanley sitting next to you, inspiring you and letting you test the limits of his product! This is the overture to a SaaS success story.
Overall, I've been paying Bento for almost a year now and we upgraded since. I intend to keep having my subscription on as everything is working smoothly. What I like the most about Bento is the ease of designing your email sequences. You can design it in a visual editor or with a traditional editor. I made the switch from Customer.io because for the quality/price ratio, Bento was leagues above.
If you need a marketing platform for emails, SMS and everything in between, check out Bento! Been following the product for a couple years now and it keeps getting better. In addition to Jesse Hanley's hyper focus on customer happiness 🖤
Email is a key revenue driver for us and Bento makes it's easy to see what is performing well and makes sure emails are optimal before sending. Their builder makes it easy to make beautiful emails that look and perform great. Setting up triggers is super easy and I'm a novice. The few issues I've had have been resolved on Discord quickly.
We switched from Klaviyo and immediately saw our open rates double. Unbelievable! The Bento team was fantastic with the onboarding and continues to give great personalized support to us.
Glad I made the switch from Klaviyo. I chose Bento, because the price and features were way better than the competitors, plus the support was extremely helpful and friendly.
So impressed by what Jesse Hanley is doing and excited to be a Bento customer. His product is legit and the support he gives is unreal! I'm excited to support him as a indie SaaS founder but that's just the cherry on top.
The attention to detail from the founding team is unmatched. We're no longer hesitant to send out emails, and don't have to spend 45 mins double-checking settings every time we do.
Bento is great for entrepreneurs because you get all of there features for a flat pricing per contact. There aren't any upsells, locked features, or hidden products. You get the entire suite of amazing marketing features that you can use on your entire emailing list. It's great and replaced a lot of other software for us.
The features they've delivered beat out much of what you see in ActiveCampaign, Klaviyo and all the big players we've used, and they build fast to meet customer needs that pop up.
If you're still using Klaviyo or Mailchimp you probably shouldn't be. Bento is the future of email and Jesse is a top founder. Make the switch. You'll be glad you did.
Bento made it incredibly easy to migrate my two established lists/businesses in. I was able to move across my subscribers and Jesse helped migrate the automations as part of their VIP onboarding process. Since starting to use Bento, I've loved the software more and more and more. A+ experience, I keep referring my friends.
If you’re looking for a great email and marketing automation software with loads of awesome features for your SaaS or eCommerce hit up Bento. Seriously awesome software.
It's a powerful mix of CRM, Marketing Automation, Chat, Workflow, Form and Personalization software that helps your business grow without costing you $1,000 a month.
Bento has unlocked new and exciting ways for our business to curate personalised customer journeys through the use of workflows resulting in better audience engagement and retention.
The support and community within Bento is hands down the best I've ever seen from any company, ever. Any question I have is always answered quickly and effectively - and I have many questions as someone without a lot of experience in the email marketing field.
I just signed up to Bento with amazing personalised support and onboarding 🙌 highly recommend. You don’t get this level of service with other SaaS marketing products 😌
Just sent out our first broadcast last night. Amazing open rate AND we are able to pause a campaign when we saw an error. Removes the stress and ensures quality.
The amount of awesome people you get to meet simply by building products is unfathomable 🥳 Also I CANNOT believe Jesse Hanley built Bento by himself. Miles ahead of his VC-funded competitors 🚀
Just checking the top 10 opened emails and saw that in Bento we're getting double the rate of opens compared to Mailchimp. You have a customer for life right here.
Jesse Hanley is an onboarding wizard. Literally no one is taking it to the level he and his team are, even compared to biz with $XMM of funding. Literal hand-holding through onboarding with video content. A master-class!
