Effecto App is a scam that preys on people with ADHD and it's wrong. The marketing takes advantage of impulsivity of people with ADHD to get them to spend money on an app that has no personalization whatsoever, despite its promises to the contrary. Effecto app is not personalised ADHD plan as advertised - this is a symptom tracker that comes with a 36 page, text heavy booklet that people with ADHD are expected to use to make the app work for their ADHD.
I purchased a one-year subscription with Effecto almost 2 months ago, realised after 10 minutes that it was not for ADHD and immediately requested a refund. The company has continually refused a refund despite the fact that I won't be using it.
Do not be deceived by positive reviews - you will notice that all the positive reviews come from accounts that only review once. And let's be honest, no one except a company posing as reviewers seeks out sites like this to leave positive reviews. Check Trustpilot where around 70% of reviews are 1 star.

Working for a small not-for-profit, we were looking for an affordable alternative to MailChimp that would allow us to send out monthly emails to our networks. I started a campaign with SendinBlue and sent a test email to myself. I forwarded the test email to my manager who then took over the process and tested some of the links herself. As a result of this, our account was blocked due to "suspicious activity."

I contacted customer service and was told that they could not unblock the account because apparently, no recipient of a SendinBlue email is allowed to forward emails to others. Based on our email exchange, my understanding is that if one of our contacts forwarded an email received from our SendinBlue campaign - let's say they found it interesting and wanted to share with a colleague - then that would also be flagged and cause our account to be blocked.

Here's what they wrote: " for your subscribers to forward newsletters at their leisure to their contacts would be a violation of our opt-in policy, as those contacts did not opt-in through you directly: https://help.sendinblue.com/hc/en-us/articles/*******-Are-my-contacts-opt-in-"

After all this wasted time, I'll just stick with MailChimp.
