Bronto was started by two friends, Joe Colopy and Chaz Felix, who worked together at a software company before starting their own in 2002. Bronto grew steadily over its first decade and eventually expanded into the UK and Australia. By 2014 the company had experienced huge success, expansion, and praise. So maybe it’s no surprise that Bronto was acquired by NetSuite, now Oracle NetSuite, for a very large sum in 2015. Co-founders Colopy and Felix departed shortly after.
Oracle NetSuite announced in March of 2021 that Bronto will be shutting down and service ending in May 2022. We can help you choose another email marketing platform and integrate that with your Magento 2 store.
Customer engagement is as critical to running a successful online store as managing the store itself. So If you are using Bronto to help with customer engagement it’s a good idea to connect it to your Magento 2 store, since that is where your customer data is coming from. By syncing data between the two you will be able to create email campaigns that reach customers in a timely manner and are extremely relevant and personalized. It’s no secret that stellar customer service leads to more sales and integrating Magento with Bronto will help you deliver stellar customer service.
Other benefits of integrating with Bronto are:
Bronto will no longer be in service starting in May 2022, despite that the team at 121eCommerce can easily connect your current Bronto account to your Magento 2 store. It will be done quickly and with no disruption to your store. Once connected, customer data from your Magento 2 store will be synced and sent to Bronto.
