For firms using Smokeball, what should we consider when choosing a reseller email marketing service for client updates or newsletters? I came across SMTPmart while comparing options and would like to hear what features matter most. Has anyone used a reseller email marketing service alongside Smokeball?

I have created a multiple choice field to insert text but I just need the choice to come in not do a whole lot of IF/ELSE/END IF.  This is too cumbersome.  Any suggestions.  Eg my choices arediscretionaryunitestatetestamentaryso I just need the relevant word to come in - something so simple is so complicated in this program. A simple computation would be great too. 

Happy Wednesday, Smokeball Community! My name is Huma, and I am Smokeball’s newest Community Manager. I have been a lawyer licensed in the state of Illinois, practicing in both federal and state courts, since 2012. Most of that time was spent as a criminal defense attorney, followed up by federal and state clemency practice and advocacy as well as international diplomacy.  Smokeball is near and dear to my heart. As a former client, it saved me many hours and much stress in my past life as a litigator.

I’ve tried to ask them to email in my support requests, and to generally respond via email, but it seems like often they instead decide to just call, leave a voicemail (sometimes), and then claim later they tried to reach me and they close the ticket. I’m finding that very little is getting resolved quickly, and what does get resolved sometimes takes awhile. A few requests do get handled quickly. I’m wondering if anyone has figured out the best way to get good support, or if its a lost cause.
