Template Comparison Tool

There are three types of comparison options available, as well as, a template preview before comparing. One comparison option is to compare the metadata of the email template including subject, from name, from address, etc. The second comparison option is to compare the backend HTML of the email template. The third comparison option is to compare the text only of the email template (i.e. the text visible when the email is delivered, not including the backend HTML).

Templates can be compared against previous versions of the selected template, as well as, templates from the same account. (If the account has a Test or Prod account those templates would be available for comparison as well.)
