Good to know

Constant Contact

A Constant Contact destination must target a list. Custom-field mappings must point to fields that already exist in Constant Contact.

ActiveCampaign

ActiveCampaign maps cleanly to OpenContact: real lists, contact sync (upsert), and subscribe/unsubscribe — so it works as both a destination and a source with no caveats.

Questions

Does OpenContact sync unsubscribes between Constant Contact and ActiveCampaign?

Yes. When Constant Contact or ActiveCampaign reports an unsubscribe, bounce or spam complaint, OpenContact records it and passes it to the destinations your rules select.

Do I need a CSV to move contacts between Constant Contact and ActiveCampaign?

No. Import contacts from one tool into OpenContact, then send them to the other with a sync rule. To move a whole list, use list migration.

Does connecting Constant Contact and ActiveCampaign cost extra?

Both tools bill you separately. OpenContact plans are priced by limits, and every plan includes all integrations. See pricing.
