Biggest opportunity: Swap “newsletter”, “woocommerce” and “sms” for “content marketing”, “email marketing tool” and “email reminder”. “newsletter” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “content marketing” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “email marketing tool” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “sms” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #22. “email reminder” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

3.8%

of downloads still active

At least 40K of 1.1M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Email & Marketing plugin keeps 0.9%, across 1,295 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Email & Marketing plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 20 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    I gave Omnisend some time after migrating from Mailchimp before saying anything publicly, mainly to see if the level of support would actually hold up once the migration is done. Happy to say it did. Their team handled the migration smoothly and since then every time I’ve needed a hand, they’ve been there. Figured it was worth sharing since I say others posting their experiences too, and mine has been a positive one.

    Since the migration (which was mostly handled by their team) all the way through launch, first campaigns, setting up first automations, we’ve felt really well supported. The onboarding process was smooth and they were responsive whenever we had questions. All in all, a great experience backed by a team that’s responsive and reliable. Thank you!

    It’s been almost six months since their team migrated me from another tool, and the support has been consistently reliable ever since. They helped with email templates, workflow setup, and everything in between, and once the foundation was in place it was easy for me to tweak things myself. I honestly haven’t seen other tools offer this level of migration package and hands on support.

    Excellent support during migration, clear explanations, correct flow setup, and identical replication. Deniz did all the setup for us, made the whole process easy.

    The team asked me to share my experience of moving to Omnisend, and honestly it exceeded expectations in terms of timing. I assumed that migration would take 2-3 weeks at least, but it emdeed up taking just 5-6 days, which was a very pleasent surprise at the time. The speed of transition is what made the experience excellent, but overall everything was handled clearly, efficiently, without friction just as communicated.
