Learn about email channel functionality in Contlo

The Email channel in Contlo allows you to send Email campaigns and automated Emails using Automations to all the customers or specific user segments. These segments can be created based on past or live user behavior, user properties, or a combination of user behavior and properties.

The Email channel is integrated into Campaigns and Automation flows. Thus you don't need to install any application.
