Mailchimp streamlines business operations by connecting over 11M companies worldwide with customers, allowing sales, creating and launching effective marketing campaigns in a single platform.
Campaigner provides easy-to-use, scalable email marketing and automation capabilities for SMB and mid-market businesses. We also work with high-volume senders.
It has a pretty straightforward pricing plan with an awesome customer service solution. I can find this tool super helpful.
You are restricted to specific designs and formats only, which can be a little frustrating when your business doesn't match those categories.
I love the visual elements of mailchimp. It’s easy to navigate and simple and the training and help facilities are excellent if you’re not sure.
I don't like the merge tags functionality. Almost always it ends up not working and it looks awkward and embarrasses in front of your customers.
I love this platform for most cases and businesses. Easy to use and great features to improve results.
They have a really strange billing system that is designed in such a way that it sucks money out of you.
We are having an amazing experience with it and will suggest you as well, because they offer excellent paid plans with depend on your subscribers.
But there is a problem, when I wanted to link any picture or a sentence with a new window that is available online, I couldn't get where to I do.
Campaigner is really easy to use and allows you to create beautiful, visually appealing and versatile newsletters seamlessly. The design os fully customizable and works very intuitively.
The templates do not work well, there is poor flexibility and the customer support is awful.
Campaigner has established me as a great source of useful and entertaining information to the database of prospective real estate clients that I want/need to reach.
In other words - it's a really really terrible platform with terrible people. We've been using ESPs for 14 years.
It is great how it integrates with our business Facebook also. The tracking features are wonderful, you can see the click rate for each link in the email.
Terrible Customer Service. Very Overpriced, billing department is garbage, alot of my mailing goes to spam even when marked as 'not spam', media library not good.
The issues I have had are resolved immediately with the help of their great customer service team.
I am blamed for your mistake twice this year and i'm really disappoint of your service.
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.
Karen: Hi, I'm Karen and I'm the executive director for a non-profit organization and we use Campaigner, and I give that a five. We use Campaigner to send out periodic newsletters to those who have interest in our organization. What I really like best about Campaigner is that is so easy to use. I've been retired for several years and it's not hard for me to work my way through the ins and outs. So sending out a newsletter once a month or every other month, and if I get into trouble, I can always call and I can get somebody on the line right away to help me. There's not much not to like about Campaigner, but one of the things that comes to mind is that having worked under corporate newsletter capability Campaigner, although simple in its simplicity it may be limited in a few of the bells and whistles that I used to be using while I was a professional person in the corporate industry.
