Mailchimp vs Uberflip: Which is a better fit?

Duncan: My name's Duncan. I'm the community editor with Pullman's Weekly News and Advertiser series. Our company's a news company with an employment size of 14, and I would give MailChimp a user rating of five out of five. Our company uses MailChimp on a day-to-day basis to reach more readers and an audience digitally. Obviously, the newspaper business as a print business has declined significantly in the past years. It's essential for us to communicate to our readers through digital means, and as such, MailChimp proves an excellent provider. The reasons I personally like MailChimp is it's very easy to use. You can have a drag and drop system for placing the templates in emails. You can select photographs to go with news stories very, very quickly. There's no need to download any complicated software. The platform of MailChimp contains all of the necessary infrastructure. I simply upload the database of our readers, and these readers receive the email through MailChimp servers. Some of the cons of MailChimp are its cost. Obviously, the more users you have, the larger the subscriber list, the larger the cost incrementally. It would also be nice to be able to send videos of a longer duration through MailChimp. I'm sure that would be achieved at some point, but that's one of the requests I would make.

Felicia T.: My name is Felicia. I work as an editorial director in Health and Wellness Media, and I give Uberflip a five out of five. When we started using Uberflip, we were looking for a solution for flipbook magazines that people could access online. We looked at things like issue. We looked at things like mass. We looked at things like digital apps to try to find a solution that was cost-effective and provided the types of features that we wanted to share our content with. Some of the reasons why we chose Uberflip had to do with the features that were offered for the price point and the cost, and also the ability to archive issues, the ability to read them later, and the various functionalities that Uberflip offered. Also, really easy to use, easy to upload our content, and had a really nice, fresh, and clear look from a user experience. We've found Uberflip easy to use and too easy to onboard. It's easy to figure out how to upload content onto it. And we had a pretty easy time sending it out to people who wanted to be able to read our flip books online and want it to be able to read our content online. We found it to be a pretty seamless integration into our business. Some of the things that I've really appreciated about Uberflip is who they are as a company and how they focus on going the extra mile, helping you onboard, helping you with any questions that you have, and just allowing you to put your work out there in the world. I found that reaching out to them with questions was something that helped our integration be a little bit more seamless, a little easier, and just found that not just counting on them and just uploading and forgetting about it, but really looking at them as a partner, really reaching out to them, answering questions, asking questions, and having them answer questions along the way was something that I found really helpful, and I would encourage you to do as well.
