### "Mailchimp for Retail"

February 19, 2019

4.0

Great for smaller businesses needing minimal marketing. Would upgrade to larger support plan for the perks.

Pros

I like how easy it is to place images in a template and that it will create a mobile version for you.

Cons

I don’t like how unavailable customer service is if you have an issue. I had trouble connecting my online store to my mailing list but could only talk to someone through the chat feature.

### "Easy to use + good customer support"

October 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

The best thing about MailChimp is that it is super user friendly and intuitive. You by no means have to be a email marketing expert to figure out how to work it. There are lots of helpful tips online to determine how to best utilize the software to get the most out of it. Additionally, the customer support team is great at helping with any problems you may have and if there are site wide problems they are address them on their social media platforms.

Cons

Honestly, nothing negative comes to mind when thinking about MailChimp.

### "A little difficult to execute"

January 21, 2021

3.0

Overall the software does what we need it to do. While we are not actively looking for a replacement, I would not be the first to recommend this as we have had a few ongoing issues that I feel should not happen with a software such as this

Pros

We have a free version and for a free version it has some good features. We do not regularly hit our limits and it still does what we need to do for the most part

Cons

The integrations with wordpress are difficult to make changes to. We have had issues with too many emails going out to users and it has caused them to unsubscribe. Having an "email now" feature for quick emails without setting up a campaign would be useful

### "We pay NOTHING but feels like we get EVERYTHING!"

March 31, 2018

5.0

This has made it easier for our church to follow-up with people who come through our doors!

Pros

I love the automated workflows and the fact that it can integrate with Planning Center People. This is extremely helpful and time saving!

Cons

When you make a lot of campaigns, it gets really cluttered. I wish there was a better way it can organize itself. You can make folders but it's not very easy to use.

### "Mailchimp for Churches"

February 15, 2023

4.0

Overall, we have enjoyed Mailchimp. It fits our purpose and has allowed us to send out weekly emails to our congregation with events and sign up forms attached. I know there is much more we could do with automated emails etc... but we haven't yet figured out how to use those features.

Pros

We got into Mailchimp early on so we are still on a free plan. We are able to sync with our church management software and put different lists into the system. It makes it easy to get specific emails out to specific groups of people. The design part of the emails is sometimes a little hard to figure out but we have created a few basic templates that we like to use that look nice.

Cons

The one thing that I think is difficult is the email design. It's not overly hard but it is not super intuitive. It's sometimes hard to find the options you are looking for when designing and it is sometimes hard to figure out what to do to get the result that we want.

### "Great tool to start basic email marketing flows"

November 16, 2017

5.0

It gets the job done in the most effective and design-centric way.

Pros

It's so easy to use; the design is intuitive, and reliable. Deliverability is almost 100%, so it's perfect for a business with no IP "credibility" to start out with.

Cons

When you get into more complex email workflows, there's only so much MailChimp can do. But by that point, a marketing automation software is what's needed.

### "Mailchimp is the BEST!"

December 10, 2019

5.0

Overall, we rely on Mailchimp! Our work wouldn't be as effective and efficient without it.

Pros

Generally user friendly and very simple. It's fast and I like how we can track each open and each click within our email notifications that go out. We primarily use mailchimp to get important notifications and announcements out to our students. Mailchimp has been reliable compared to google mail or outlook when sending out communication. The reports tool is very useful - when students deny receiving any communication from us, we can download mailchimp reports as our supporting data. Mailchimp is the BEST!

Cons

Lists! In the past, creating and organizing distribution lists was so easy. Now it's a bit complicated and the terms have increased so we would have to pay more for more lists.

### "Reliable and Consistent Email Marketing"

August 12, 2022

5.0

Pros

I'm always a fan of when a software product focuses on doing what they do and doing it well. Mailchimp is a clear example of that. They have remained a consistently strong player in the email marketing space, providing intuitive and easy-to-use software for helping businesses of all sizes and industries with their email marketing goals.

Cons

I have found that the strength of Mailchimps integration with CRM platforms varies from platform to platform, so I would encourage users to test-drive it with their unique CRM instance.

### "Really easy to get going"

July 12, 2022

5.0

At the end of the day Mailchimp served a purpose and I'd recommend it for small businesses. As you grow though it's probably necessary to move on to another software with more customization options

Pros

It's really simple to just pick up and get going. The customisable templates work really well and the interface is user friendly... it's not too technical and it's sleek and modern not clunky and confusing like some other software

Cons

The automations are not as good as other software so you're quite restricted if you want to set up a complex multi-email sequence with different intervals and triggers. Also the formatting can be a bit of a nightmare, for some reason it often doesn't go right. Especially on mobile which is ULTRA important.

### "Unbeatable Value for a Free Product! Improvement Desired for Ease of Editing Landing Pages."

July 6, 2020

4.0

Full functionality integrated into a single program that's available for free (to start) with desired improvement in making landing pages (and some user flows) more intuitive.

Pros

\- Free - Full functionality - Integration of email database, emails, landing pages, and more - Automations

Cons

\- Editing landing pages is painful. You cannot simply "ctrl+z" to undo. Editing the design is not nearly as intuitive as Unbounce, and I frequently end up deleting entire sections (blocks). - Creating and editing things is a bit slow and tedious, even though the full functionality is available. - When I set up an automation, I'm never really confident that it's actually working. When I test with my email, there seems to be a huge delay when the email is received. A nice confirmation message would be nice.

### "Great for entry-level, not so much for advanced users"

July 7, 2020

4.0

Overall, a good piece of software. Simple to use, simple to start. Pricing is a bit high once you get over the free tier. Not good for advanced email marketing.

Pros

Pretty easy to set-up and start sending emails through. Very user-friendly. Love the branding and how everything "speaks the language".

Cons

Missing a lot of advanced filters, smarter ways to segment users, and doing more advanced drip campaigns. If you're looking to really slice and dice users and build complex automations - this tool is not for you.

### "Good Value & Easy to Use"

July 24, 2018

5.0

Email campaigns that are easy to build and manage over time. I get a great value for the price and I like the discount I get for increased security requirements.

Pros

Easy to use. The templates and editor are very nice and function very well. The integrations are useful and save me time.

Cons

The organization of the website and campaigns could be better. It's slightly confusing but overall a very good product and I highly recommend it.

### "Mailchimp has carried my team for years!"

January 6, 2019

4.0

Mailchimp is such an amazing company. I have always felt supported by customer service when things get confusing or we need third party help. I can't imagine how our communications would run without Mailchimp.

Pros

Mailchimp allows our team to maintain contact lists from years past in an organized fashion. Its features allow us to distinguish who are new contacts and who are old. This has helped our organization weed out recipients of our list-serv who are more than four years old, to prevent us from wasting money by keeping them on.

Cons

I wish that the organizational features were more user-friendly. We had to sort through years of unorganized lists to eventually reach our current organization level. This was not a major problem for us but was notable nonetheless.

November 27, 2023

5.0

Great tool, easy to navigate and has some great features.

Pros

Mailchimp is great for our emails but the biggest surprise was the social media campaigs that had higher conversions than going direct on the platform.

Cons

There isnt much to dislike. Each feature is pretty easy to understand and navigate.

### "Digital Marketing Supercharged with Mailchimp"

March 12, 2020

5.0

Pros

If you are looking to direct target clients and increase sales then mailchimp is the right software to do the work. Mailchimp makes it easy to create email marketing campaigns and best of all easy to get your campaigns analytics all in one place. You can even get stats on how many emails have been opened, how many bounced and even better how long the the mails were opened by your clients. The Analytics tool makes it easy to know which email marketing content are working or not.

Cons

If you are new on this platform, they no longer provide free version which you can use your own custom code. So you will have to use the vast templates they provide but even though some of them wont really work for some design cases.

### "Mail Chimp review"

March 27, 2023

5.0

My overall experience with MailChimp has been positive, and I would recommend it as a tool for anyone looking to increase their communications ability in a small business.

Pros

Mail chimp is a fairly straight forward and user friendly tool for making sure that I can stay in communication with my clients, as well as providing a slew of tools for easy marketing opportunities. I love the mail tracking feature so that I can see who is engaging with my communications!

Cons

Overall I would say that the customer service for mail chimp has been somewhat lacking. There have been times where it has taken longer than it should have for me to get a reply.

### "Easy, but has its faults!"

September 7, 2018

5.0

I use MailChimp on a weekly basis. It's easy and convenient, it just has a few faults that could be fixed on their end. I wish there was also a way to save specific codes/design blocks in the editing sidebar so I wouldn't have to duplicate old emails to grab a code, then delete it.

Pros

MailChimp was incredibly quick to learn and has all kinds of templates and 'design blocks' to help you design an amazing email campaign. Emails look professional and it's easy to keep track of email addresses on our lists.

Cons

It recently changed to a new format and I can't say that I like it. I also feel like there isn't a lot of customization once you've selected/built a template - once you build one, that's what you get unless you start over. I also wish there was an 'undo' feature when deleting things - sometimes we DO make mistakes! It's also hard to get emails to be compatible with Outlook, I have to use specific code just so they look okay.

### "Still an industry leader in digital marketing"

November 12, 2019

5.0

Works as designed, almost flawlessly, and accomplishes what it promises. I've looked for better platforms but Mailchimp still trumps them all.

Pros

Mailchimp makes it easy for me to create automated and manual campaigns, as well as makes it easy to understand what is successful in my marketing.

Cons

Knowledgebase and learning support is a bit sparse, and a bit overly technical for new users. I had to have somebody far more experienced than I am to explain things to me.

### "Mailchimp"

January 20, 2020

4.0

I have been using Mailchimp for more than 3 year now and I must say Mailchimp is an awesome email marketing platform it delivers my task without glitch.

Pros

Mailchimp is easy to use with it's simplicity in design, drag and drop editor and all these has made the software so popular in the market. The reporting is thorough and contains basically everything you need, including client, geo and social media tracking, as well as google analytics integration. There are plenty features available for their free plan and you can have up to 12,000 emails and 2000 subscribers, to me this is not bad for a free user.

Cons

Mailchimp has un-intuitive marketing automation, it is not designed like some other advanced tools in the market. The paid plan is quite expensive if you want to use the pro features.

### "Excellent software, especially considering I only used the free version"

September 29, 2018

5.0

I used the software for a small business that was just taking off. I created custom emails, managed customer email addresses, and tracked usage data. All of this led to a very positive experience for me, and I would highly recommend this product for all small businesses (and large ones assuming the paid version is worthwhile).

Pros

The free version is packed with features, and for many small businesses (especially young or just starting businesses) the free version with be more than enough. MailChimp provides good ways to manage contacts, create beautiful emails, and track customer data on who has opened the emails and who has clicked through. They also provide a good way for my customers to unsubscribe if wished without having to contact me. All of this makes my life much easier.

Cons

To be honest, there wasn't much that I didn't like. My use of the software was overall very positive. Even the free version is very powerful for what I needed.

### "Helpful communication and marketing tool"

November 8, 2019

4.0

Overall its a great tool for keeping your customer lists organized and for periodic communications and marketing.

Pros

We use it to help keep customer lists, categorized by regional areas. We send quarterly marketing pushes out to current customers. It's low-cost way to communicate and market goods and services if your customer list is capped. Over a certain threshold, Mailchimp now charges to have that number of subscribers. There are full-color templates; and Mailchimp let's you know if you'd selected an image that will overload the inboxes of subscribers.

Cons

The service is no longer free above a certain number of subscribers, though we all should have know that day was coming. The templates are not that user-friendly, in my opinion and not super compatible if you are trying to input a design from outside--you have to put it in their template and it can get buggy, so be sure to test it out before sending it to your audience.

### "Absolutely essential for small business owners! The best way for an entrepreneur who is not technically savvy to build an email database and use it wisely!"

January 4, 2018

5.0

If you're an entrepreneur or work for a small business, you NEED Mailchimp! Don't look at any other email marketing services. It's the most affordable and best email marketing platform out there for small businesses.

Pros

Everything from the emails they send to me to the reporting on how my campaigns performed is outstanding. I have a full time job, but I also manage my own business on the side and Mailchimp is essential to my success. It integrates with every CMS, so I can quickly and easily build lead generation forms for any part of my website and also get real-time notifications on how they're performing. I love the email templates, they're beautifully designed right out of the box. Often times, all I need to do is add my logo and email copy, and it looks fantastic. If you want to be a power user, Mailchimp also has the capability to do A/B testing on just about anything - so I can discover what subject lines, copy, images, etc work the best for my audience. Really amazing service.

### "There Are Better Tools"

July 29, 2021

2.0

When looking for an ESP I've considered Mailchimp a few times and always end up using another tool.

Pros

If you're just looking to send to emails via email blasts or light segmentation and can use this for free or cheap it should serve you well. If you need to do advanced email marketing almost any other tool on the market will serve you better.

Cons

Automations are a joke and needlessly expensive and limited in scope. Email design is difficult and Mailchimp often throws in junk HTML that will hurt your email's performance.

### "For newsletters, Mailchimp is the way to go. "

August 12, 2022

3.0

Pros

We send 10 newsletters per week. There’s nothing that handles more aspects of this process than mailchimp. From content, design to analytics it’s far and away the best I’ve used.

Cons

I wish the email designer template was more intuitive, it feels very chunky at times. Especially on touch devices.
