Track Enterprise Email Team Emails Utm Code

How many times have you sent an email and waited .... and waited ... and wondered what happened to it? We all have.

In the past, it was normal to have no idea what happened after we sent an email. Did our recipient receive it? Did it get lost in their inbox? Is it in their spam folder? Did they click on my links or open my attachments?

No one knew ... until now. Now, we have software that lets us know when someone opens your emails, clicks on any links, and views any attachments.

Email tracking gives us the power to build and maintain relationships in this exceedingly crowded, competitive inbox environment. That's what this guide is all about: powering your inbox with email tracking to boost email efficiency and productivity.

Note: We've edited sections of this piece because readers rightly pointed out that we did not previously include enough content on how to use tools that track email opens responsibly. This is a rapidly evolving technology, so we'll continue to update recommendations on this page as the field evolves. Feedback makes our content better, if you see advice or content that is outdated - write us at blogging@hubspot.com.

And since we're already talking about easy-to-use email tracking software, let's review some free options next to give you an idea about the various options you may want to experiment with.

1. HubSpot

HubSpot is known for its powerful sales platform, and email tracking capability comes with its suite of free sales tools. With HubSpot email tracking, you'll be able to tell when a lead opens an email, clicks a link, or downloads an attachment.

These actions can also be viewed in the CRM on the contact record's activity stream, which includes other activities such as website page views. In addition, you can get desktop notifications for real-time activity updates, allowing you to respond when your organization is top of mind. This software works with Gmail, Outlook, and Office365.

2. Mailtrack

Mailtrack is a Google Chrome extension that integrates with your Gmail inbox to add green checkmarks within the interface once emails are opened. Mailtrack also provides desktop notifications, and there is no limit to the number of emails you can track.

3. Streak

Another Gmail add-on, Streak provides a handy sidebar with a visual activity log of email opens, view times, and even the geographical location where the recipient viewed the message. You can also use Streak to sort your messages by recent views (to know which prospects are the warmest) or isolate your email sends that are still awaiting a reply (so you know who to follow up with).

4. Mailtracker by Hunter.io

Mailtracker allows you to track how many times the email was opened, when, and with what device. Hunter.io promises that this extension will always be free and will never add a logo or other identifier to your emails.

5. Intelliverse Email Tracker

This email tracker can come as a plugin for Microsoft Outlook or as a Chrome extension for Gmail. It provides information on when and where the email was opened as the device details, all within your inbox. It will track unlimited emails and provide real-time notifications.

6. SalesHandy

SalesHandy provides email open notifications and activity tracking for up to 15 of your most recent records. Email tracking is completely free and unlimited for Gmail users, but you can upgrade to a paid plan to access the Outlook add-in.

7. Mailalert

Mailalert is a Google Chrome extension that offers unlimited tracking with no branding or logos attached to the emails. Unlike some of the options on this list, it offers click tracking completely free. It also includes real-time notifications/push alerts to help you achieve more agile response times.

In the past, there was a lot of uncertainty around emailing. But with email tracking software, there doesn't have to be. Email tracking can help you know exactly when your prospects open your emails and when to follow up.

Email tracking benefits both businesses and customers. With email tracking, businesses can navigate their inbox productively, communicate effectively, and ultimately build and maintain meaningful relationships. Customers can engage with emails without anticipating multiple follow-up emails or calls. This is why we built SalesHub — to empower both sides of the email marketing process and help businesses grow better.
