    If you want to add a newsletter subscription to your site then this is the package. We were able to have everything setup and running in just a few minutes. The only downside is that we wish it had more features ( the same features lacking in ALL OTHER email opt in mods).

    If you are looking for a simple straight forward module to handle newsletter sign-up's etc. the look no further. Main module worked "straight out of the box" and an issue with the simple Opt-In mod was dealt with quickly and efficiently by Data Springs support staff. Modifying the CSS files to change the look and feel of the modules proved a little tricky but this could easily be sorted with better documentation. Otherwise very pleased with the module.

    I give the highest marks to the tool and support staff out of all the modules that I've ever used. The tool itself is invaluable and the staff went out of their way to help with installation, answering questions, and soliciting feedback for enhancements. This is a good model for all other vendors to follow. The tool has essential functionality and flexibility for customization.

    I purchased another developers $200 email marketing tool - it was so complicated my clients were unable to use it and it had a restrictive licensing scheme. This tool was easy enough for clients to actually use and does the job well at a good price. Thanks.

    Product works just as he states – watch the demos at his site. Developer really cares about his work AND his customers. Great, quick support, a product that works well and dedication to version updates! A real DNN winner!

    This is a clean installing module. There were no conflicts with 30+ premium modules I have installed on one of my sites. The documentation is excellent. The graphic layout of the checkboxs for the opt in's is very limited. This is the reason i did not give it 5 stars.

    As a 'dotnetnuke newbie,' I needed a module that would work 'right out of the box.' Within an hour of installing this module, I had a fully functioning opt-in/opt-out newsletter subscription center integrated into my site; and the hour includes time just playing with a myriad of bells and whistles that allow for total customization. More so, customer support is second to none. In fact, I bought more Data Springs modules as a result of the experience I had with Opt In Email 3.0.

    Works as stated. It has a seperate small module that allows you to just put email address or name and email address for subscription like on a home page. Different departments only have access to their newsletter under a single newsletter manager.

    I needed an e-mail marketing solutions fast, and above all it needed to work out of the box! Opt In Email did it all for me and my client was extremely happy with the results. DataSprings Interactive User Import and Opt In Email are the perfect combo if you need well supported e-mail solutions to generate awareness of your products.

    Questions from other customers
    Ask a Question
    Q:  Hi, Quick question. I'm just learning about this module so hopefully this isn't a dumb question. I'm wondering what advantages this module has over DNN 4.8's core newsletter module? Many thanks.
    A:  Hi. Well the major features include the ability to opt in and out of lists, distribute an opt out link if users don't want to at the bottom of a newsletter, work either with registered users or independently (users don't have to register to use the module or be part of an opt in list) as well as other features such as email tracking and more email personalization.

    Q:  I would like for people in a non portal admin role to send out newsetters. Is it possible to create a "Newsletter Admin" Role and then people in that role are able to send emails? Right now I would have to give portal admin priveledges to users sending the newsletter.
    A:  Yes, you can specify a seperate role per opt in category that can send out newsletters.

    Q:  If I understand correctly the user can opt in or add them selves to the email list with out registering for the portal it self is that right?
    A:  Correct. The module can either be directly integrated with their userID/registration, not integrated at all with the portals registration at all, or also integrated with our Dynamic Registration product if you want them to opt in /out during registration. To answer your question though, yes the user can opt in /out and add themselves to the email list without registering for the portal itself.

    Q:  Can I display a list of Newsletters on the site that users can access? This is for a club that sends a newsletter weekly. And I want to be able to display an archive of newsletters.
    A:  Hello, yes there is a previous newsletters module within Opt In Email that you can use to display previous newsletters (and you can filter that by lists).

    Q:  Does it works well in DNN 4.5.5?
    A:  Yes, this module does support DNN 4.5.5

    Q:  This module looks really good. However, I have a few questions. I need to allow people who do not have accounts on my DNN install to opt-in and out getting a newsletter. Is that possbile with your module? Thank You, Stuart Hilbert
    A:  Hello, yes the module can work with and without integration with the DNN users/registered users. It has several integration options to import from users roles or default fields if the user is signed in etc... It does not require integration with the core users though, all optional features.

    Q:  Hi: Basically I need a double opt-in newsletter signup form. One that sends an e-mail to the subscriber asking if they did indeed signup and then confirms that. Will this product do this? Thanks.
    A:  Yes. There is an option within the module to 'Auto Verify' or send them a message which you can customize and forces them to click a link to verify their subscription.

    Q:  Hi there, Just to clarify, I would like to know if I can create newsletter templates and save them for later use (as I will be using a template and sending emails using the same template each day with minor changes). Would I be able to track sent emails (and to which emails addresses) and track how many hits each email gets? Thanks. Karan
    A:  Yes, yes and yes. Thanks, let me know if you have any more questions.

    Q:  Does the administration support sending emails to roles as well? Is there a way to sync a Role to Subscription list? We basically are just needing the delivery info that is not present in the Core Newsletters, like boounces, non-delivery, etc.. so we might migrate to this. All of our current email marketing is done to roles so if there was some integration that would be great... Brad
    A:  There is import option to import specific roles to specific opt in email lists. If you were just wanting this feature to take advantage of the scheduling and tracking features this might be your best solution. There is no 'Sync' but you could just run the import before sending a newsletter out to make sure everyone from that role was in the list. Thanks!
