### "Pricey but great"

May 7, 2024

5.0

Mailchimp has been great. It gave me all the tools I needed to manage my campaigns while selling my online courses and managing my audience and current students.

Pros

Mailchimp is mostly user-friendly, and it tracks all the data I need to have control over which content is working or which is not.

Cons

It starts to get expensive as your e-mail base grows, even though you may not be getting any return to cover the costs.

### "No one else can compete! "

October 13, 2020

5.0

It is a pleasure to use! I also appreciate their aesthetic and the illustrations that they change up.

Pros

After Mailchimp added email marketing automation to all levels of users, there was no competition for it. I've used many other email marketing platforms, and it is by far the most user friendly. It allows me to easily make and modify emails. Some of my favorite features: - Automated emails for different content marketing campaigns - Link checker (this feature has saved me from huge mistakes) - Ease of sending test emails to colleagues/clients

Cons

I do wish it were easier to track whether a specific individual opened an automated emails. Sometimes customers don't receive an automated thank you message and it's difficult to see why.

Reason for choosing Mailchimp

User experience.

### "A must for small businesses starting their Newsletters"

December 6, 2018

5.0

Pros

I've been using Mailchimp for a few years, I think the overall experience is quite good, with improved focus on how to set up and execute your campaigns. I think it's a great way to get started when you have zero budget and a small database, and to grow things from there. This is the tool I used to get started and allowed me to get started in the emailing field. The reporting metrics are of great use as the allow you to take decisions based on your email performance.

Cons

Back in the day when I started, it was not very clear how to setup your first emailing. For beginners the differences between campaigns, lists, templates and metrics may be a bit overwhelming. But Mailchimp makes everything very user friendly, and have improved on the user experience over the years.

### "I love Mailchimp"

December 11, 2019

5.0

Overall experience with Mailchimp has been great. It enables me to reach out to our subscribers, deliver our message, and get the data we need to improve what we do and to improve our relationship with our audience.

Pros

I am not the creative type of person to be doing outreach or newsletter for a business but Mailchimp makes it so easy for me. It is such a great help, they provide templates, examples of what other people have done, images, GIFs (I love being able to put GIFs on my work!) and everything else that my limited imagination is not capable of doing. I also am able to get data from every campaign I send and it helps me to improve our relationship with our audience and to improve what we do.

Cons

I can't really think of anything that I do not like about Mailchimp. Things have been great every time I use it. I just wish I had more time to do more.

### "Email marketing with mailchimp"

January 31, 2019

4.0

I have had a really good experience with MailChimp while using the free and cheapest version. You have to accept that there will be some missing features if you are using the free version and for me the features are great. The features improve quite a lot when you play for the software and I have been quite happy using both the versions.

Pros

Comes with many plugins, is super easy to use and comes with a free plan. Extensive documentation which helps out when ever something is unknown.

Cons

The pricing plan is a little difficult for me to understand. Also report generating is not the best when using the lowest priced plan.

### "Mandrill"

July 23, 2019

5.0

Mandrill has been great to help reduce the amount of time I spend on each client of ours. I have the ability to check email faster and help more people.

Pros

Mandrill is great to backtrack on emails that my company has sent out. We have the ability to view if the email was delivered, bounced, and how many times it has been sent + opened and clicked on. The features of mandrill are great for the company because we rely heavily on mandrill in order to see that.

Cons

At this moment, I can't think of a negative effect of mandrill. It is very easy to use and easy to maneuver around.

### "The best way to get started with Inbound Marketing"

November 24, 2019

5.0

When doing an independent project, I always use Mailchimp to get a small business online. I recommend it to any and all small businesses.

Pros

Mailchimp is incredibly easy to use. Its easy to get started using the software with the UI requiring no work to understand. Also, with a great free plan with a solid contact limit, its the best option for small businesses just getting started.

Cons

Mailchimp, although working on this, isn't as full-throated a solution as HubSpot or Salesforce. This is mostly because it is aimed at a different market segment.

### "MailChimp"

August 13, 2022

4.0

Pros

Simple and easy-to-use interface and theme. The template editor is great. It offers a lot of features even in the free plan. Its rigorous reporting helps the user keep a record of every client.

Cons

The only problem with Mailchimp is the high cost of subscription packages.

### "Cool layouts & Excellent Customer Support"

February 1, 2019

5.0

Pros

1\. Beautiful and functional email templates 2. Advanced analytics 3. Excellent customer cupport!! Their chat is availble 24/7. No bots! Just real people who REALLY help you when you have questions. 4. Very easy to use

Cons

Email organizing could be better. When you create and send many emails per week, it gets really difficult to find one particular email that you sent a few months ago.

### "Versatile, simple, and professional"

April 16, 2019

5.0

We have used MailChimp to be able to easily identify groups and sub-groups of subscribers, track communications in terms of who has opened and clicked through on certain content, and more. Being able to integrate with the other tools like SurveyMonkey is seamless and allows for ease of use between multiple platforms. This has become a necessary tool in many ways, not just another piece of software.

Pros

There is so much available for free with this software, it's incredible. I use this with a number of organizations to manage mailing lists and sign up forms. Being able to see reports, past campaigns, group together subscribers in multiple ways, managing attachments and files, and being able to apply integrations with other software and services are all huge bonuses.

Cons

Sometimes emails come through as spam to recipients.

### "Great and compatible email marketing tool for small business"

August 8, 2022

4.0

We start email marketing with Mailchimp and it is easy to start since it it compatible with wordpress, other CRMs etc. Still great for simple email marketing.

Pros

Well known tool for email marketing and segmentation of the audience using tags.

Cons

New automation tool is not great fit for us. Also, pricing plan is high but free version is manageable.

### "A review of MailChimp by the creative director of a marketing agency"

April 7, 2019

4.0

Easy, reliable, relatively flexible. Clients like it because it is famous with an easy to remember and friendly name. They like the fact that it is free for basic usage. It's not an all-singing-all-dancing sales pipeline or campaign management service, but - as a designer and a director - it's nice to have something that simply does it's job easily and well.

Pros

I like that it is easy to use. It's branding, user interface and user experience design are all engineered to be clear and plain and self explanatory. I like that you can can easily create an email and easily send it to who ever you want. How well that email is written or designed and how your email list was created in the first place is completely up to the user— but MailChimp provides good base-level easy-to-use mail service functionality. Also I like that so many other platforms and services integrate with it quite easily. Wordpress, for example. A very popular platform that can be tied to a MailChimp account without requiring the services of a specialist developer.

Cons

Perhaps that the email builder is a little clunky.. ambiguous or.. basic? It's very good, very quick and produces emails that work in many many email clients— it's just perhaps a little too basic at times?Maybe also that our agency's account managers and our clients often demand a little more than MailChimp can offer - more pipelines, more accountability, more tracking and more automation. Also, many emails from MailChimp may not actually end up in the recipients' primary inbox for a number of reasons.

### "Easy, Affordable Mailing List Management"

September 8, 2020

5.0

Mailchimp makes managing my business email list easy so I can reach my clients effectively.

Pros

I began using Mailchimp a few years ago because the tedium of building emails was overwhelming. I needed a simile template that could easily be edited to suit my needs. Mailchimp makes it easy for me to keep my clients aware of what is happening as well as helping me to make sure that my emails are getting to people who will actually read them. I am able to archive unsubscribed users and keep track of opens, click links and more.

Cons

The mobile app isn't as functional as I would like it to be. I have to have two apps in order to effectively manage emails and campaigns. I also wish that the free use extended beyond 2000 emails.

### "MailChimp Makes Email Design Easy!"

November 21, 2018

4.0

I've been using MailChimp with a few churches that have relatively small lists and qualify for the free plan. This is a great solution for them as they're able to produce high-quality emails for free. I've also used MailChimp for a company that manages several client email lists. In that situation, it does work well, although we've had a few issues with MailChimp blocking particular lists although the client has said that they've used the same list in MailChimp.

Pros

I love the drag and drop interface that allows you to assemble mobile friendly layouts quickly. It's convenient to be able to have multiple users on one account.

Cons

I wish there was a little more flexibility in some of the components--for example, it would be nice to be able to make a 2-line button, or to be able to better control the mobile layout vs. email client layout.

### "Mailchimp is a stampede of monkeys at your service"

March 31, 2020

4.0

I have had not many issues with Mailchimp, though I think it is a very basic tool. There are some other tools that might be fuller and with more features, but if you want to stick to simple and easy, absolutely go with MailChimp. Also, it is almost guaranteed that they won't have any system problem, have worked with it and have had just one bug once. Basically flawless.

Pros

It is super easy to use, basically, you select what you want to send, click a button and all the work is done. Besides that, the metrics are one of the features that I enjoy the most as I can track the user experience and upgrade it in the future if I see that something is not working well.

Cons

It is a little bit complex to insert live apps or media in any of the mails. I mean live social media such as Tiktoks, live twitter or live Facebook. It is a plus for any mail to add these kinds of features as technology is being updated every day and inserting this kind of extra is always a plus for any mass mail delivery system.

Reason for choosing Mailchimp

Because Tralix is more complex software. It is way too difficult to manage, while MailChimp is easy and reliable. We use Mailchimp just as a little extra for our customers, so we really don´t want to spend that much time using super complex software to send massive mailing.

### "Mail chimp- easy option for companies with limited resources"

January 14, 2019

5.0

Pros

We love mailchimp because it protects us. It makes sure that you don't email people who have unsubscribed and will even let you know if a loaded list may be an issue. The templates and design options are great! The new tags option makes it easy to create lists/segments.

Cons

Sometimes the design creator can be a bit glitchy (you change the font but it doesn't change on your email).

### "A must have, but prepare for a learning curve."

November 25, 2023

5.0

In the end, setting up and configuring does take some time and a steep learning curve, but is absolutely worthwhile if one wants to automate emails.

Pros

Mailchimp does what it promises. Automates most of the work related to email marketing and/or transactional comunications. When fully step-up, is a full breeze and one can turn attention to other important matters.

Cons

When used to connect your databases and sync clients and contacts, not everything is as clear as it seems. One does need to go a bit back and forth between documentation and eventually some help from forums.

### "Build Professional Looking Emails With Ease"

April 28, 2018

5.0

Simple, Easy & Affordable.

Pros

MailChimp is easy to use - the editor is really good - and you can build professional looking emails without knowing any HTML coding. There are a lot of good templates which makes life easy - you can choose one and start customizing it. It doesn't take much time to create the email & test it - once you have your content & have an idea of how you want the email to look. The scheduler is a nifty feature - easy to use & very useful. Importing of contacts and segments the lists is very easy.

Cons

List management features are missing - the ability to classify contacts in lists & moving them into different lists based on their behaviour is not easy to do. Also, list health data & analysis thereof is missing.

used it since the beginning of the online shop, and never had a problem with them.

Pros

If you have an online shop, this app is a must! it collects all the customer emails and you can easily distribute your promotions and follows up. Also, it is updated to the last GDPR law, so 100% recommend to use.

Cons

if you have a big online business, you might need the pro version, which is a bit expensive, but worth it

August 9, 2018

5.0

Overall, is an excellent app, very easy to use, with unlimited tools and reliable. it helped me to send bul email to my customers. Sadly, they closed my account and I had to look for another alternative

Pros

It is very easy to use and to import contacts. it also let you create great emailing with the templates and beautiful landing pages. Also it is very simple to create contact lists and send your messages to specific groups

Cons

I think is a little expensive if you have a very big database, when you want to send unlimited emails or an specific amount, in both cases Also, I had an unpleasant experience with the customer support. They closed my account because i was "breaking their policy" but no one could explain what was I doing wrong
