Email on Acid is a Must Have
Pluspunten
What I love about Email on Acid is how quickly I can see how my email renders across all email providers as well as internet browsers. I always rely on this tool to make sure my emails will be sent out with no issues. The one cool thing that I really do love is that I can use their optimizer to check my HTML code. Since I am not fully fluent in coding, I find myself using existing templates and making modifications to the code. Many times I notice an error in the code and am not sure what is broken or wrong, but when I take the code and run it through Email on Acid's code optimizer, it tells me the errors and fixes them.
Minpunten
I have no complaints about Email on Acid. I have always had a great experience with it.
Email on Acid is a great tool for email marketers
Email on Acid has been a simple and easy tool to use for our company's email testing. It makes identifying coding issues a breeze. The interface is very visual and easy-to-use, as you can easily identify the differences in rendering right on the spot. EOA has saved our butts on a few different occasions :)
Pluspunten
Email on Acid makes email render testing a breeze. By sending a test of your email to your pre-determined EOA email address, you can quickly and easily view how your email will display across dozens of browsers, operating systems, devices, etc.
Minpunten
It is not all-encompassing as far as the number of browsers/OS/devices it accounts for. There are a few that are missing, which I'm hoping will be added as time goes on.

Email On Acid Review
My overall experience with Email on Acid is that I use it for a variety of clients. I create a large amount of emails and need to save time with a testing software. Email on acid allows me to quickly and efficiently do this. I can quickly spot issues with images, coloring or spacing and identify which specific email platforms it has issues on.
Pluspunten
I personally love email on acid. As a consultant who creates a variety of emails, email templates and assets within those emails and links, it is crucial that I can quickly and accurately test how all these links and images are rendering on different browsers or email softwares. Email on Acid allows me to very quickly upload emails that I have in draft form from a variety of marketing platforms. It allows me to quickly test and spot and identity any potential issues with images within the email. It also helps me identify any issues with spacing or coloring. Email on Acid saves me a lot of time and mistakes that could potentially end up being client facing.
Minpunten
I personally do not have any cons with using Email on Acid to test my newly created emails. I have not used any other testing softwares to compare but personally love Email on Acid.

Thanks so much for the review! We're thrilled we've been able to help you save time and be more efficient in your testing process.
Long time user, and the evolution of Email on Acid has been great!
Pluspunten
I've been using Email on Acid for about 6 years, and its managed to evolve, adapt, and stay relevant as HTML email gets more complicated in a more responsive world.
There is almost no wait-time between when I deploy a test email to Email on Acid and when I can start viewing renderings.
They also have great articles about HTML email trends, useful snippets for those hard to fix bugs (I'm looking at you Outlook).
Minpunten
Their latest (within the last month or two of this article) UI refresh is a little wonky. I'm sure they'll have the kinks out by the time you read this.
A cheaper alternative that gets the job done
If you're a company with an unlimited budget, then I would choose Litmus. But for the rest of us, especially freelancers/contractors, Email on Acid is a great choice that won't let you down. I have peace of mind when everything finally renders appropriately across email clients/devices. Getting there can be a royal pain, but EoA is a major help.
Pluspunten
Email screenshots happen almost instantly. You can automatically trigger an email test by sending a test message to your EoA account. You can configure which email clients to include, and share the results.
Minpunten
This still feels a bit like a 'budget' product, compared to Litmus. The price tag definitely reflects that, and boy am I thankful there IS a cheaper option. So I won't complain too much. But I do sometimes get frustrated that certain screenshots take forever, and sometimes they render badly. Small price to pay for a product that's actually in my budget as a freelancer.
Used in two capacities with different clients... user and admin. Easy once you get the hang of it.
Pluspunten
It was easy to get started. I LOVE being able to just send an email to a "secret" address and get visual results for various email clients for testing. The pricing is fair and straightforward.
Minpunten
Can't seem to figure out how to get help with correcting small code issues or code typos. Would be a nice feature. Perhaps the platform could offer tips based on your html.
Frequent User
I use this software A LOT. It is very intuitive to use and it is helpful in ensuring your emails look great.
Pluspunten
I love the idea behind this software so you can see how your emails will appear in multiple clients, but...
Minpunten
I dislike that this software allows you to see your ememo across multiple clients because then project managers get caught up in details in obscure email clients.

Love all the different clients that show how your email will look.

Sometimes it takes awhile for the screen shots of your email to render.
Very helpful for end user experience

There really isn't anything I do not like. Maybe receiving their informational emails? lol

Cheap, but slightly limited, email tester
It helped us to quickly test our emails in a wide range of email clients, something that is almost impossible to do manually. It helped us find a number of bugs in our emails and in our styling and the styling coach helped us to quickly identify the attribute that was causing the issues.
Pluspunten
It is relatively cheap (cheaper than most competitors), while still having a wide range of email clients to test in. There is a free trial that is more than sufficient to try out all the main functionalities of the application, so you can try it out (and even update some emails) without any costs.
The email styling coach was surprisingly useful, since all hints were very concrete and lists the offending line of code.
Minpunten
The list of email client, although extensive, does not have the latest versions of some popular clients (during my work with the application it was missing the latest IBM notes and therefore could not reproduce a known bug).
Email testing done right
When creating a new email, it is important that is looks right to all users. We use Email on Acid to make sure we achieve this.
Pluspunten
This cloud-based application allows you to 'test' emails in a number of different email clients. Anyone who has worked on emails knows that email clients are notoriously bad at implementing all features, which means that often your email will look great on one email client, but crappy on another (because you need to use some client-specific attribute). This application allows you to enter HTML and see how it looks in various email clients. It even gives code suggestions to help make the email look uniform over all clients.
Minpunten
The only minor downside I have found is that some older (but still in use) email clients are not present.
If you do email marketing professionally, you need Email on Acid
Pluspunten
Email on Acid is the de facto industry standard for testing marketing emails across devices and browsers. There isn't anything like it. It's pretty simple and easy to use with basically no learning curve.
Minpunten
No real cons, you even get a trial to evaluate the service before beginning to pay. It would be nice if it integrated with email marketing systems so testing could be managed in the same system.
Wish I Knew About This Sooner
Pluspunten
This is a great email litmus test to ensure that your email newsletter is going to show up the same way on your preview as on every device imaginable.
Minpunten
Wasn't really good at telling what an issue was.
Great Email Preview Tool, But Litmus Is Better
Pluspunten
Email on acid is a great tool for what it's supposed to do. Gives you previews for all the clients you would possibly need.
Minpunten
It's a fine software but if you're looking for a email preview tool then you should just use litmus.

The interface can be clunky at times. Although my complaints are at a minimum because its always easy to figure out in the end.

Email on Acid is a must for me since I am an email marketer. When using templates over and over and changing the code, errors can happen and I fully trust Email on Acid to tell me if my email if my email is broken or not rendering properly. I will not send an email until I run it through here first.
