Review beehiiv?

Reviewers mostly like beehiiv for its clean editor, intuitive interface, readable analytics, and built-in growth and monetization tools, saying it makes running a newsletter feel easier and can improve engagement. Some also praise fast feature releases and attractive layouts. A founder from SafetyWing specifically highlights the built-in referral system for their newsletter. Still, the feedback is not uniformly positive: several users report limited editing and automation, pressure to upgrade, weak support, and reliability or Stripe issues that make monetization frustrating.

Sold as a stronger product than Substack, but is an immature product beneath the surface and has caused our company a lot of (ongoing) headache. Probably fine for writers just getting started, but in no way is this a replacement for Substack. Table stakes features break often, others don't function correctly, some don't even exist. Since launching our website a week ago it's already been down once. They're integration with Stripe is full of errors and has created a ton of friction with our customers, leading to churn so if you are thinking about monetizing, I would consider other options until beehiiv matures. The product has potential but they need to stop taking on customers until their product and team can adequately support that many. We're stuck on beehiiv now at least for a bit, and it's been frustrating.

Sorry beehiiv, you're awesome but I've sent 3 support tickets and thus far got zero replies. Software is great but I've had urgent issues and no support, so if something doesn't work for you, good luck figuring it out yourself. Also, the email flows/automations are limited to 30 day time frames, so we can't import our flows and are currently paying for 2 softwares.

We switched to Beehiiv for our team newsletter. I personally manage our campaigns and really enjoy the editor. The analytics are simple to read and help guide our strategy. Migration was easy, and we’ve seen better engagement. It’s been a fantastic move overall.

Beehiiv is super simple and easy to use, making it perfect for creating a side business while having fun. The platform is constantly releasing new features at a blistering pace. It offers excellent tools for monetization, analytics, segmentation, and automation. Simply the best platform out there!

I moved to Beehiiv mainly because substack was becoming too social-media-like for my preferences. I find that Beehiiv is a little trickier to use and is a little more limited, but has less social interaction.

Good platform that provides aesthetically beautiful editor and layout. Some editing options arent great. And seems like there is a forceful push to get paid plans, which is not a good user experience
