Luckily, there are specialized services that allow you to easily create an email template. One of these services is Stripo, and in today’s guide, we’re going to take a closer look at this service and find out what it offers.

What is Stripo?

Stripo is an email design service that allows you to design emails without any coding knowledge. The service offers more than 1150 free HTML templates, so you’ll easily find the perfect template for you. Regarding the supported services, Stripo works with over 70 services including Gmail, Outlook, AWeber, and many others. By using it, you will see how your emails will look in different clients. You can even share templates with coworkers and clients for feedback.

What features does Stripo offer?

Thousands of templates

As previously mentioned, the service comes with more than a thousand templates. Sorting is available and you can go through them based on the type, season, features, or industry. Once you select the desired template, you can get to editing.

Drag and drop visual editor

The editing process is simple and intuitive and you can easily adjust the message settings, including padding, the width of the message, line spacing, and other settings. Each template is divided into several sections, such as header, content, and footer. With Stripo you can customize text size, color, and background for each section individually. The same applies to headings, and you can set standard size, font, style, and color for all headings to achieve a consistent design. Lastly, we have to mention that the service is optimized for mobile devices. This allows you to adjust the font and heading sizes for your mobile templates as well If you wish to add additional content, you can drag and drop one of the content structure layouts to your design. After that, just drag and drop one of the available blocks and arrange them as you want. This includes images, text, buttons, videos, menus, HTML code, and other elements. Of course, each added block is customizable, allowing you to fine-tune it and ensure that it matches your design perfectly. As for elements that are available in your template, each of them can be moved and edited as you please, allowing you to fine-tune everything.

Modules for rapid designing

Speaking of design, we have to mention modules. These work as a group of elements that you can add to your projects. Each template has modules that you can add or customize. Of course, you can pick between one of many pre-built modules, or you can combine elements from your projects into modules and reuse them later. If you’re a coder and you want to fine-tune your design, you can view the HTML and CSS of your email template and adjust it accordingly. As you can see, the service is rather simple to use, since you can just drag and drop the elements as you please, so no coding is involved.

Email preview and testing

Once you’re done designing, you can test your template and see how it looks. The service has a preview feature that allows you to view it on your browser and mobile device and ensure that it looks perfect on both platforms. SPONSORED You can also share the preview link with others which is useful if you need to get a second opinion on your design. Do keep in mind that the preview might not look always accurate, but there’s a testing feature to help you with that. With it, you can send yourself a test email and see how your template looks. If you want, you can even send a preview email to different clients and devices to ensure maximum compatibility across all platforms.

Compatibility with various services

Once all the tests are done, all that is left is to export your template. The service allows you to export the design to a file or application. The list of supported applications and files includes:

Gmail, Outlook Web, Outlook App HTML, AMPHTML, image, PDF Webhook, Zapier

Regarding email service providers, there are 72 available and the list includes the following:

Collaboration features

Stripo allows you to collaborate with your coworkers on templates. The service supports different roles and permissions that you can assign to users. Speaking of collaboration, there’s a brand guidelines generator that will ensure that all your emails will have the the same email design styles for all users that are working on them.

New and upcoming features

Stripo will be releasing a new version soon, and probably one of the biggest improvements is the redesigned user interface. All blocks and markups will be available on the left sidebar while the settings for the selected element are placed on the sidebar on the right. By doing so, the interface is less cluttered and more intuitive to use. In addition, you’ll finally get a WYSIWYG editor. Using it, you’ll be able to preview the template for both desktop and mobile and edit it at the same time. The new version won’t require any code development, thus making this service more accessible to non-developers. The collaboration feature will also see an improvement and you’ll get real-time co-editing, commenting, and demo options. Of course, with improved collaboration, there is also a more streamlined role management. Lastly, the accessibility features will let you know if your emails have low contrast, missing alt text, inappropriate alignment, or any other accessibility issues.

Stripo pricing

The service has four pricing plans available, and the Free version will allow you to have one user, 4 exports per month, and 5 test emails per day. If you want to increase the number of exports, and tests and gain access to premium templates, preview link sharing, custom fonts, and other features, you should consider using one of several premium plans.

Conclusion

Stripo as a service is straightforward to use, and it allows you to create unique templates simply by dragging and dropping the desired elements into your project. The only complaint that we have is the sidebar which can be sometimes convoluted and hard to navigate. However, the company is already working on a redesign, and the redesigned version addresses this issue. Overall, Stripo is an amazing service regardless if you’re an individual or a company, and if you want to create visually stunning emails, then we highly recommend you give this service a try.
