Our Take on GetResponse
Our take: GetResponse makes sense for marketers who want email, automation, landing pages, webinars and course selling under one login. That combination is unusual at this price. If you won't run webinars or sell courses, you're paying for features you don't need, and MailerLite or ActiveCampaign cover email automation more cleanly.

| Plan | Monthly | Annual (per month) | Automation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | €16 | €13.12 | 1 custom workflow |
| Marketer | €54 | €44.28 | Unlimited workflows, tagging, event-based automation |
| Creator | €62 | €50.84 | Marketer features plus webinars (100 attendees) and paid courses |
| Enterprise | Custom | Custom | Up to 1,000 webinar attendees |
Yearly billing takes about 18% off. Prices are shown in your region's currency.
The tier decision: Starter's single automation workflow means it's really a newsletter plan. Anyone buying GetResponse for automation should budget for Marketer. The €8/month step from Marketer to Creator is cheap if you'd otherwise pay for a webinar tool.
What the free account keeps
After the 14-day trial, a free account stays usable with restrictions: a GetResponse badge on every email, webinars capped at 10 people, landing pages limited to 1,000 unique visitors a month, and courses for up to 250 students (no selling). It's enough to keep a small list alive, not to grow one.
Where GetResponse stands out
- Webinars built in on Creator. Registration, reminders and follow-ups live in the same automation as your email.
- Course creation and selling alongside email, for educators who don't want a separate course platform.
- Event-based automation on Marketer for behaviour-driven sequences.
Where it falls short
- Starter is too limited for automation buyers.
- Feature breadth over depth. Each module is good but less specialised than dedicated tools.
- Euro-first pricing makes comparisons awkward for US buyers.
Choose GetResponse if
- You run webinars as part of your funnel
- You want email, landing pages and courses in one subscription
- You'll use Marketer-level automation
Avoid it if
- You only send newsletters. Pick MailerLite
- Automation and CRM depth matter most. Pick ActiveCampaign
- You run e-commerce flows. Pick Klaviyo or Omnisend
