### "Mailchimp Automated Emails Connects Right to Website Popup!"

August 6, 2022

5.0

Excellent! I would highly recommend!

Pros

I loved that I could easily integrate it into my website! I have a pop up that asks to subscribe to my email list. When visitors subscribe, Mailchimp then sends an email I designed with a promo code. It’s perfect!

Cons

I had to watch a few YouTube videos to figure out how to do exactly what I wanted to do. The language mailchimp uses confused me a bit at times, but now that it’s set up I love it!

Reason for choosing Mailchimp

I needed more automation and mailchimp provided that.

### "Good to start-ups, but not for long-term business"

December 11, 2023

3.0

Mailchimp is a very simple platform to use which is good for smaller businesses or independent freelancers, however for more complicated or higher level marketing, it simply does not have all the features you need.

Pros

It is a cheaper alternative to use compared to setting up hubspot. It easy to crate email campaigns and send but anything more complicated or on a large scale, it struggles.

Cons

It is not good at filtering or cleansing data. it does not even make it easy to ensure your data is cleansed or captured correctly in the first place. It has very limited stats and insights and only segments by audience so it is very difficult to do any side by side comparisons. It has lots of bugs in the designs and previews don't reflect what you have built.

### "Must have to any marketing and sales effort!"

July 20, 2018

5.0

MailChimp is a welcome tool for just about any Marketing campaign! The automation it provides will save you a lot of time and effort so you can focus on managing the leads. The reporting tool is pretty comprehensive and the Forever Free Plan is worth giving a try. The Pro features that come with the paid plans are worth it as well, especially for crucial marketing periods during the fiscal year.

Pros

We used to send out marketing emails manually, batch by batch, divide and conquer among our staff. Using MailChimp saved us a lot of time and effort by allowing us to automate the sending of emails, and even track the effectiveness of the content and automate some scripted replies. Another thing I liked the most is that MailChimp provides 15 templates to start with (instead of having to build from scratch). For beginners and those who are hesistant, the Forever Free Plan allows you to have up to 2,500 subscribers and to send out up to 12,000 emails/month. That's quite a lot already especially for small businesses. To reach out to a bigger audience, you may want to consider the paid plans. Sales and Marketing team will love its reporting tool to see the effectiveness of your campaign and email interaction from your target audience. It is also integrable to third-party apps and e-commerce platforms.

Cons

The template automations are great, but for more complex marketing workflows, we really had a difficult time (maybe because our correspondence is rather too complex and multi-step). Keep in mind also that you'll have to clean up your list of subscribers since duplicate entries will still be charged to the subscriber count.

### "Terrible customer support. A great option for small business, once over 300 users gets pricy"

December 6, 2023

4.0

Pros

When you are starting out the free version of this is great. There is a lot to do to get this launched for your small business. Once you take the time to set things up, you will be able to send professional looking campaigns. Everything costs more. Once you grow comfortable with the system and send a few campaigns out, if you're looking to optimize data you'll see the cost is real. Some of our families wanted to have two caregivers per family receive emails and the reality is many companies may only allow one per family because of the monthly cost to the business when you double your email sending list.

Cons

The customer service is awful and we found it impossible to get our social media platforms connected properly.

### "Mailchimp - The Go-To CRM for Startups and SMEs"

October 23, 2021

5.0

Overall, Mailchimp is an absolute breeze to integrate and use. There is simply no competing CRM solution for startups or SMEs, and Mailchimp maintains much of its appeal long after the company has outgrown it. We use Mailchimp, and we constantly suggest Mailchimp to our clients.

Pros

In terms of functionality over price, Mailchimp has no equal. Marketing automation has never been this cheap and accessible. Mailchimp is GDPR-compliant, spam-free and fully adjustable to each and every marketing need conceivable. The ability to overview statistics in every facet of one's marketing operation is the greatest advantage, and remains simple enough for startups and SMEs to make full use of it without needing to assign data specialists to a dedicated position.

Cons

The only con to Mailchimp is that it's eventually outgrown by successful companies. Although it is not unusable in these cases, there are many restrictions to flexibility when companies reach a certain size - in this case there are better solutions that come at a significantly greater price point.

### ""Mailchimp: A User-Friendly and Reliable Email Marketing Solution for Businesses""

January 28, 2023

5.0

I've had a good overall experience using Mailchimp Transactional Email. The ability to send automated, one-to-one emails such as order confirmations, password resets, and welcome messages has been extremely helpful for my business. The ability to trigger emails based on specific events, like a purchase or sign-up, has also been a great feature. The personalization options have allowed me to make the emails more relevant to each individual recipient, which has helped to improve engagement and build trust with my audience. The integration with my website and other tools has been seamless. The reporting and analytics features have helped me to track the performance and success of these emails. I haven't had any major issues with the transactional Email from Mailchimp, it has been a reliable tool for my business.

Pros

I have been using Mailchimp for my business's email marketing needs and overall, I have had a positive experience. The user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate, making it simple to create and design professional-looking email campaigns. The wide range of templates and customization options allow me to create unique and personalized emails that stand out. Additionally, the automation features have been a game changer for me, allowing me to send targeted and timely emails to my subscribers. The reporting and analytics features have also been very helpful in tracking the performance of my campaigns and making data-driven decisions.

Cons

One downside I have noticed is that the free version of Mailchimp does have some limitations, such as the number of contacts I can have and the number of emails I can send per month. Additionally, customer support can be slow to respond at times. However, overall, I would highly recommend Mailchimp as a reliable and user-friendly email marketing solution for businesses of all sizes.

### "Why I choose Mailchimp over the others"

November 1, 2019

4.0

I've used MailChimp for several years now and while it took some time to get used to it after using a competitor for many years, I've grown to like it more. I know that Mailchimp is capable of doing soooo much more than what I use it for. If I were more technically inclined, I am sure I would utilize it more fully. I would take more advantage of things like automations.

Pros

I like Mailchimp for the ease of creating newsletters. The interface is quite easy to use, even for beginners, and I like that I can see my drafts in both PC and mobile view, to make sure something doesn't get wonky on mobile. I like that Mailchimp integrates easily with Wordpress, and they make it so easy that even I can understand it. I also like the analytics. They are easy to understand and don't get overcomplicated. It takes just a quick look to see my open rates and click-throughs.

Cons

I get confused by the terminology used for the lists, or audiences as they now call them. In other similar apps, I am able to attach several different lists to one email. In Mailchimp, they want you to have one list with segments and tags, etc. and I find it time-consuming and confusing. Not enough templates to work with. And the ones they have have been there for a long time. Time to refresh! I don't like the lack of customer service available if you don't have a more premium account. No one really has the time to wait 24 hours or more for an answer to a question.

Reason for choosing Mailchimp

I felt that Mailchimp graphically overall looked cleaner, more modern and sophisticated. It's mainly design aesthetics for me.

### "Mailchimp always on the cutting edge of email marketing and management "

September 6, 2022

4.0

Pros

Mailchimp is simple to use and the drag / drop super easy platform has great UI / UX

Cons

Customer service. For the amount paid for the package without being able to call, one should be able to call once in a while, say one call a month for one inquiry - chat is not the same and the reps aren't always the best. Sorry to say.

### "La mia esperienza sull'utilizzo di MailChimp"

March 27, 2023

5.0

Sono molti gli aspetti che ho apprezzato, soprattutto la facilità d'uso, le funzionalità disponibili, l'interfaccia intuitiva, la possibilità di personalizzare le email, l'ampia scelta di modelli disponibili, le analisi dettagliate delle prestazioni delle campagne. In generale, la mia opinione è che Mailchimp sia una piattaforma molto completa e adatta alle esigenze di molte piccole e medie imprese.

Pros

In generale, ho apprezzato la facilità d'uso del software, l'automazione (si possono creare ad esempio una serie di email di benvenuto che vengono inviate automaticamente ai nuovi iscritti alla lista di posta), la personalizzazione ( si possono creare campi personalizzati nella lista di posta per acquisire informazioni specifiche sui destinatari, come nome, cognome, indirizzo, età e altro ancora. Questi campi possono poi essere utilizzati per personalizzare i messaggi di email marketing), la capacità di fornire analisi dettagliate sulle prestazioni delle campagne email ( è possibile ad esempio monitorare la percentuale di utenti che hanno aperto l'email o hanno cliccato su un eventuale collegamento; monitorare la posizione geografica dei destinatari ; monitorare il tipo di dispositivo utilizzato per aprire le email, sia esso un computer, piuttosto che un tablet o uno smartphone.

Cons

Il prodotto è facile da utilizzare e al momento, è mio parere, non necessità ulteriori funzionalità o integrazioni e in generale posso affermare che mi è piaciuto molto.

### "Mailchimp Review"

April 27, 2022

4.0

I am pleased with Mailchimp. It helps me to stay in touch with my customers and inform them whenever there is a sale or a new promotion on my website. It is not only a significant investment in my business, but I too have grown because I learned how to do my email list. I have learned how to do my landing pages for my customers to put their information in. It has been fun learning and growing my business.

Pros

As someone who has a small online business, I’ve found that Mailchimp offers the best overall features for marketers and entrepreneurs. Formatting email campaigns for my mailing list is very easy, it also offers split-testing which allows me to quickly figure out which campaign is working best which helps me get more sales leads and conversions. You can count on Mailchimp to help you build a variety of templates that fits your subject without coding. It also helps you grow your email list and helps grow your subscribers' list. I will certainly endorse Mailchimp for newbies because it is like a one-stop-shop for marketers and entrepreneurs. It is budget-friendly and as your business grows, you can upgrade to larger packages.

Cons

I would like to see greater flexibility in their automation, but I would continue to recommend them.

### "Need easy to implement email software? Choose Mailchipm"

February 12, 2023

5.0

There's a reason why MailChimp dominates. It's super easy to use. Analytics are easy to understand. Very readable (for a non-math person) and the "suggestions" (time, branding etc. are always welcome and perfectly on task)

Pros

I like the templates. they're not the most "creative" but it makes sending out an email so easy!!

Cons

I understand that the bigger the audience, the more it would cost, but once you're paying (2000+ audience) then there are more competitively priced products. Plus, the 2000+ audience numbers include unsubscribes, why? If someone unsubscribed, then why shouldn't my total number in my audience drop to only the ones that are actively receiving emails.

### "Trying to do too much. Becoming less useful for email marketing."

May 18, 2019

3.0

Pros

I've been a Mailchimp user for several years. Haven't used it a ton, but occasionally send out newsletter to a small audience of around 800 people. It's very easy to use, and comes with some starter templates, and an easy way to add some customizations. Deliverability has also been solid. From 2017-2019, they have been moving away from email marketing into a complete marketing, CRM, retargeting & ad management tool. Read on for why this has pushed me to another service.

Cons

I want an email marketing platform. One that stores my contacts, makes it easy to send emails, gets them to the inbox, and gives me basic stats. That's it. I'm willing to pay a small fee each month, but I'm not asking for a whole lot. I initially went with Mailchimp because many people \*used to\* recommend them, and they had a free plan for up to 2,000 contacts. They still have that 2,000 contact free plan, but they've been stripping features from it steadily over the past 2 years. And they even count unsubscribes against your contact count. Not to mention they are now counting test emails against your monthly sending limit. They are offering ad retargeting with Google & Facebook ads, giving you the ability to send postcards to customers, and everything is getting more complicated (their service, and their pricing). It doesn't seem to me like they're taking care of their big existing free user base (and hardly even their paid user base). They claim that users keep requesting they do more, but there's been a huge backlash (from users) with all these recent changes. Personally, and from a business standpoint, I'm not a fan. I'm in the process of researching an alternative. Leaning towards MailerLite, ActiveCampaign or SendInBlue, but haven't made a decision yet.

### "One of the Best Email Marketing Software"

November 25, 2020

5.0

Mailchimp has helped my business in a significant way. I can create, schedule and send professional emails to hundreds of clients in my contact list in just a few clicks. Being able to choose and edit well-designed templates is a feature that I like very much. Although it wasn't very easy to determine how to work around with Mailchimp at first, with experience - it's not that hard to use it. I have also started using Mailchimp in my personal blog to send emails to potential clients and I am enjoying it. I highly recommend Mailchimp to anyone looking for High-Quality Email Marketing Software.

Pros

I feel lucky that I got a .com domain name and their website builder for free for 5 years in an offer - and obviously, this is the thing that I like most about Mailchimp. Aside from that, I need to send monthly newsletters and other sorts of emails and I used Mailchimp to make the work easy. Mailchimp offers various customizable options and also offers well-designed templates that I can choose and edit - which makes our work very easy. While I started using Mailchimp just to send newsletters, I have been enjoying other features too.

Cons

In my view, the User Interface (UI) of Mailchimp isn't very good. Exploring Mailchimp was confusing to me when I just started using it. Some features are hidden and it's not easy to make sense of that pressing 'a' button does. I think the User Interface(UI) can definitely be improved. Apart from that, the mobile app of Mailchimp doesn't offer many features which is not a big problem for me as I do most of my work in PC. However, I prefer to have more features available directly in a mobile app.

Alternatives considered

[GetResponse](https://www.capterra.com/p/153948/GetResponse/)

Reason for choosing Mailchimp

I was getting an offer from Mailchimp while I wasn't getting one by Getresponse so Mailchimp had an advantage. I also researched a bit and found that Mailchimp has a bigger userbase than Getresponse. I gave Mailchimp a try instead of Getresponse as I didn't need to pay any amount to start using Mailchimp. After I liked Mailchimp, I upgraded my plans.

August 31, 2021

I have genuinely enjoyed using MailChimp and I intend to continue using it because it makes my work easier.

Pros

MailChimp makes it easy to communicate with customers and potential customers on my mailing list. It also gives a variety of templates for my different needs. From newsletters, brochures, fliers, letters and ads. All these are an integral part of my job roles thus this saves me a lot of time and allows me to produce top-notch results for every project.

Cons

My only issue with MailChimp is that the subscription plans are expensive. The plans a very costly. However, the many useful features of the platform makes the cost worthwhile.

### "Sending and monitoring gazillions of emails made easy!"

July 10, 2018

5.0

Free version was workable for our small business. We upgraded to a paid plan for another use-case of marketing/sales for our International event. Saved us a lot of time by automating the sending or emails, including our prepared auto-replies. The analytics tool is very handy in analyzing the reach and effectiveness of our marketing campaign.

Pros

We needed to send our tons of emails for marketing and sales promotion of our recent international symposium. MailChimp helped us tons by handling the sending our of the emails, monitoring the receiver interaction (wherein we were able to automate certain auto-replies/categorization thereafter). Best feature for us: The Analytics Tool - very useful to see how many were reached, sent, received, clicked on a link, etc. 2nd Best feature: The Auto-responder - you can already set the script or logic of your email correspondence based on the expected replies and prepared email answers. And of course, for the small (perhaps up to medium-sized) businesses, the free plan may be workable for you. Until you decide to upgrade to a paid plan.

Cons

If you're looking at a very wide audience / number of subscribers... this service may come a bit pricey. But hey, more chances of sales success as well. So just balance it. Understandably, the reports aren't displayed in real time. You can refresh the screen, but it takes a bit of time to load (relative to this era of modern fast paced apps/tech).

August 6, 2023

Met Mailchimp heb ik een uitstekende ervaring gehad. De eenvoudige interface stelde me in staat moeiteloos aantrekkelijke e-mailcampagnes op te zetten met hun diverse sjablonen. De automatiseringsfuncties bespaarden me tijd en verbeterden de betrokkenheid van mijn publiek. Het gedetailleerde analysesysteem bood waardevol inzicht, wat resulteerde in effectievere marketingstrategieën. Over het algemeen een krachtige tool voor succesvolle e-mailmarketing

Pros

Mailchimp heeft indruk op me gemaakt. De gebruiksvriendelijke interface, uitgebreide sjablonen en krachtige automatiseringstools hebben mijn e-mailmarketing naar een hoger niveau getild. Het rapportage-dashboard gaf me diepgaand inzicht. Een onmisbare tool voor elk bedrijf, groot of klein.

Cons

Mailchimp's prijsstijgingen na verloop van tijd kunnen ontmoedigend zijn voor kleine bedrijven met beperkte budgetten. Ook lijkt de klantenondersteuning soms traag en onvoldoende responsief bij technische problemen, wat frustratie kan veroorzaken tijdens kritieke momenten.
