At Wanna Pixel, Inc., we have been excited about Mosaico, a drag-n-drop email builder native to CiviCRM, for quite awhile. Most designers and nonprofit staff alike have struggled to use the CiviCRM mailing feature to create responsive email campaigns. Three years ago, I wrote an article about the responsive template I created for CiviCRM users, hoping to help ease this struggle.
Before Mosaico, there were two options for email building when using CiviCRM.
CiviCRM Core Team, Veda Consulting, and CompuCorp worked together to create a beautiful extension for CiviCRM’s mailing feature which integrates with Mosaico, a drag and drop tool created by VoidLabs.
Our big question was: Will our creative and development team be able to use, recommend and train our nonprofit clients to create satisfactorily beautiful emails without having to integrate with a third party email builder such as MailChimp, or painstakingly editing raw HTML templates?
I have to admit, I’m impressed. Veda Consulting and CompuCorp have done an incredible job in creating this beautiful Drag and Drop extension for CiviCRM’s email tool.
We've written a blog post detailing how to use Mosaico to create beautifully responsive emails. Head over to the blog to check it out!
Here are some things we loved about Mosaico in our test run.
