Campaigns and Attachments

I am using Suite 8.8 currently for a client (its working well), however they are using the campaign module (again its working for how they want it).

I have been testing the Suite8.9 Campaigns module which looks much better but seems to be missing several things.

so my question: Do attachments work in the new campaigns, and if so how? I can’t see an attachments section and inserting a template with an attachment does not send the attachment.

Hey @markbond don’t get me wrong, I love SuiteCRM. However, for campaigns (and I’ve used them extensively in SuiteCRM!) Mautic is a superior solution. Way easier to build templates, complex campaigns, tracking, etc. It’s literally designed to do pretty much only email campaigns. Plus, it fully syncs with SuiteCRM. It’s open source, easy to install/sync and makes the use of SuiteCRM as a CRM and Mautic as a messaging platform a superior combined solution. (That’s my 2cents anyway)

@pstevens

I haven’t used Mautic, although have heard good things. However most of my use is really transactional emails (and in this case newsletters) rather than actual campaigns, and from our clients perspective less systems to use/learn.

They have been using Suite 8 and it (was) working well for them we can’t however upgrade from 8.8 → 8.9 until the issue with campaigns are fixed (the editor although I hated Mosaik still allowed more than the current release). With attachments being the worst part missing.

on a related note, any pointers for getting the two integrated?
