Buttondown vs. Constant Contact

Constant Contact is heavyweight software; it can do a lot, and charges accordingly.

Constant Contact is a fully-featured "marketing automation" tool that handles it all: email newsletters, SMS campaigns, ecommerce storefronts, event registration, social media ad management and more.

If you're running a store or venue, Constant Contact might be a better fit for your growing business than Buttondown.

But if all that marketing tooling sounds like overkill, we agree, and that's why we built Buttondown. Our tool is simple, powerful newsletter platform that's perfect for writers and publishers who simply want to write great emails and build their community.
