Great New Free Email Tracking – what do you use?

Got really annoyed at Yesware for ending its free trial, and I found these guys:https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/rocketbolt-email-tracking/pkapfpgbgfcojflnfmhnplkkkcdcmkfj

RocketBolt seems really great so far, and it includes Rapportive-style social profile pulls in addition to standard email tracking.

What does everyone here use for email tracking? (Or does everyone here use a pixel blocker :)

Yeah, I'm basically the worst because I use a blocker so other people can't track me, but I love tracking them.

I've been using Yesware, but no way am I paying for it. I'll give RocketBolt a shot, thanks.

I use RocketBolt for email opens now as well. The profile building is interesting... basically a social stalking tool for sales leads.

I use Streak (a YC company, I believe), which has email open tracking built in. It's meh... gets the job done, I guess, but it's not really their focus. I definitely use it more for the CRM component.

Haven't heard of RocketBolt. I'll check that out.

I think Hubspot has something. Was it called Sidekick? I can't find anything about it anymore.
