### "Worth the Money!"

March 11, 2020

4.0

I've used mailchimp in the past to automate and track my marketing. The analytics are easy to follow and understand, which males tracking engagements and new subscribers a breeze, and the template choices as well as click and paste style customization options are really nice and super user friendly, even for folks who arent familiar with web design or online content creation. My boss was leery at first, as the cost of mailchimp is a bit high vs other services and products of it's kind. I was able to show him in black an white at the end of the free trial list how valuable an asset mailchimp was for our business.

Pros

With several options at varying prices, you can choose to use as simply a platform to send out email blasts/newsletters to your subscribers or go big and opt to automate most of your marketing needs. There are also varying levels of use in between. Mailchimp is awesome. Because you can customize the level of use based on company needs and budget.

Cons

It's a bit pricey. I had a hard time convincing the heads of the nonprofit where I work that this was a necessary expense.

### "Great for new startups to establish a base!"

May 12, 2020

5.0

Great when you have a solid email list and base to start. Would recommend to startups because there is the free basic user experience that helps build up clients. We would like to see more demographics and more information on ROI.

Pros

Great for our startup company to create a mailing database that provides geotracking and outreach to our customer base. We like the feature that allows us to see if the customers have opened the mail so we know what is effective. Knowing what time customers open the mail is also effective so we can group by demographics. We also like that we can import from our current subscriber list so and bypass the opt-in feature. The customization of templates are nice, but having the support from mailchimp team to help with branding our emails specifically is even better!

Cons

The price point is reasonable for startups, but once you start hitting over 1000 customers then the price plan becomes a bit steep. If you're a company who is wanting to reach a large client list without having to empty out pockets then this may not be for you.

### "So Easy A Chimp Could Figure It Out"

February 1, 2019

5.0

Overall Mailchimp is great. Shopping for email service providers is like shopping for a home, you can't undo it easily. I am happy to have Mailchimp as my home for over 5 years.

Pros

Mailchimp is just easy to use and easy to get started. The API is very developer friendly if you want to get more advanced. The customer support is superb and has solved all my tickets fairly fast. You also get a discount for having 2-factor authentication which is lovely.

Cons

The only thing I don't like is when you grow, the unlimited sends end. So if you grow past a certain point it gets expensive and you need to clean your list frequently to save money.

### "Intro To Email"

July 17, 2020

3.0

Overall, great starting place for our email needs. We definitely outgrew it when we expanded what we wanted to accomplish with email strategy, but it was a good starting point.

Pros

What I liked best about Mailchimp is how easy it is to you. The UX is simple, and for most small businesses this will suffice for your email needs. The price is great for what you get.

Cons

Mailchimp is definitely not as robust or sophisticated as other Email Marketing tools. So while it's great for campaign sends and getting email going for your business, I wouldn't recommend it for lifecycle journeys or transactionals.

### "The Best Email Marketing Service "

April 26, 2022

5.0

Mailchimp is a tool that should be adopted and used in every business and marketing agency. Thank you for such an amazing platform, and for all the new features that are rolling out.

Pros

As a marketing agency, we use Mailchimp on a regular basis, we create email marketing campaigns for our clients, we host also events for them, so newsletters play a major role in our weekly activities. Being able to check the analytics to report them to our clients is crucial in order to plan our next strategy. The UI is pretty clean and relatively easy to get into.

Cons

Until now, Mailchimp does what it promises and more. We haven’t encountered any problems.

### "Why use anything else?"

July 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

I've used Mailchimp since I can remember. To me Mailchimp is THE software for online communications and always has. Similarly as when you think of diapers you think Pampers, and when you think of shoes, you say "Adidas" (shout out to all my Polish peeps), when you think newsletters think none other than Mailchimp. Back in the day it used to have limitations, but as my business grew, so did Mailchimp and I can't be more thrilled about all the new addons and user friendly UIs. Even support team is very capable and understanding and will help you if you ever hit a snag.

Cons

I had some issues with managing my lists once. I was told by support staff that I can move my lists around and the price will not be affected, because it only matters how many users you have at the end of the month. That is not true. Duplicating over half a million users created quite a bit of a bump in the price for the month, but their support team was able to clear this up for me after few emails.

### "Mailchimp and omnivore "

August 14, 2018

4.0

Its allowed me to find love as an email marketer ... oh And the omnivore feature has given me heartbreaks too.

Pros

The fact that mailchimp allows me send to 2000 subscribers is a huge boost to my email marketing needs. I mean i could start an email marketing campaign without any money unlike some others where i have to pay a monthly subscriptionfor even the smallest subscriber. The deliverability rate of my emails with mailchimp is also commendable.

Cons

Ooh! The omnivore feature is so annoying! I have literally cried after one of my campaigns was hit. I messaged support and googled all the ways i could be free of the ban to no avail. Support never replied my messages. Over 4 of my lists have been affected so far. i really hope its disabled or improved on soon.

### "MailChimp Is Excellent 👌👌👌"

August 25, 2022

4.0

As I stated before different people use the app and the program so there's many different opinions about what things are great depending on which person is using it but as far as myself overall I like everything about it I think you should try it.

Pros

To be honest I really like all the features as I stated before there are some features that I'm just getting used to but like I said that there's multi people using the program so it just makes it available and easier for those of us that do or do not use it.

Cons

I really can't say that I like anything least about it all I can say is that so far so good and thank you very very much.

### "Great email marketing tool for small businesses."

December 6, 2018

4.0

Great to stay with the subscribers and customers in an efficient way. Great email marketing strategy which when intergrating with social media helps to cover a wide range of opportunities for the business. Great email reminders which ensures the user is able to track the activities or task to perform. Great for advertising new events thus very effective and convinient.

Pros

Small businesses with need of email marketing should choose the mailchimp since its effective and simple to use. Ability to intergrate with social media helps in marketing the company through social media campaigns. Helped to know which email was delivered successfully and which bounce thus being able to act on it immediately. There is a free template which the user can test the capabilities of the software before making the purchase. It simply amazing with great features.

Cons

There is a limit to the number of emails but 2000 emails is lot which makes it difficult to surpass it.It can be flagged by email scams.

### "It's simple, inuitive, and they make it easy to create exactly what you need"

March 5, 2020

5.0

I have been with MailChimp for over 10 years and I have tried numerous other services, but none have the ease of use as they do. I recommend this product to anyone from small business to enterprise because they really can scale.

Pros

The best part of this service is the ease of its drag and drop feature that allows you to create newsletters in a snap. The WYSWYG editor is familiar for most and easy to learn with the ability to customize with HTML. It can be as simple or as customized as you want it.

Cons

They haven't updated their templates in a long time, their focus on trying to be more than a newsletter service is making things a little complicated, and automation is unnecessarily complex.

Pros

The program is extremely simple to use and learn. Has amazing features to create beautiful and professional looking newsletters.

Cons

The issue isn't so much with the software but with the connection, if your internet is slow then the connection with the software and extras is almost impossible to work with.

### "MailChimp makes it easy and affordable to quickly create polished, professional emails."

June 6, 2018

4.0

cost-effective, easy to use and create professional emails even with limited design skills.

Pros

What I love most about Mail Chimp is the ease of use. It took a few weeks of emails to get the hang of the functions, but now that I know where to go, I can create emails quickly and efficiently. I also like UI/UX of MailChimp, which is clean, simple and friendly. The language is fun but not overly cutesy, which is the tone de jour of software lately. The reporting and analytics are simple to read and understand, and I can send the reports to stakeholders quickly via email, so they have access. I love that they have integration with many of the popular CRMS. I haven't yet had a chance to dig into the more advanced features, but I'm eager to use the landing page options as well as social media integration. They also have a lot of helpful how-tos, and their customer support was quick and helpful. Of course, the low pricetag is a huge selling point for folks with limited marketing budgets.

Cons

I would like additional design tools for the emails. However, for new users or folks with limited design skills, MailChimp makes it very simple to create create polished emails.

### "More than E-Mail Marketing"

October 10, 2020

5.0

Overall a useful tool for landing pages in addition to email marketing campaigns.

Pros

While MailChimp may primarily be used for email marketing campaigns, you can also create landing pages to collect leads. At our company, we use MailChimp landing pages in our Google Ads instead of our website, with the goal of more directly collecting leads. Customer chat support is available for paying customers and works very well.

Cons

The layout of the overall webpage/platform was a bit confusing to navigate; however, they recently rolled out a new design that is much more intuitive.

### "Muy útil Mailchimp"

November 14, 2022

5.0

Genial programa para administrar campañas de mail marketing.

Pros

Me gusta la facilidad para dar de alta contactos. Teníamos muchos contactos en una hoja de excel y con mucha facilicidad los importamos a Mailchimp sin problema alguno. Nos ayuda mucho el sistema a saber qué correos son inválidos e indicar cuales son reales. Las plantillas que maneja son prácticas, y las firmas en los mensajes que enviamos son compactas sin afectar el contenido de los mails.Una vez enviados los mensajes, podemos dar seguimiento a los correos leídos o rechazados. La verdad es es que esa herramienta nos ayuda mucho a ir filtrando los contactos, así tenemos solo los que estén interesados en nuestras especialidades.

Cons

Pues no tengo inconveniente alguno. Todo ha sido positivo.

Reason for choosing Mailchimp

Su costo se me hizo atractivo y muchas funciones por el plan elegido.

### "its good for a small business with smallish needs"

January 8, 2021

4.0

generally good. Easy to import merge and manage new contacts, which is helpful, and pretty straightforward.

Pros

It's free, relatively staightforward to use. They don's constantly revamp their interface, which means everything is where you left it if you only use it every 2-4 months

Cons

Many of my marketing emails end up going to junk, especially with gmail addressees. I have about a 1400 client list and send out about 5 or so emails a year, so I am in no way spamming people. I seems like something must be going on with how mailchimp and gmail interact, because I have people who want to get my marketing, and don't because gmail defaults it totheir junk mail. And this is coming from a real domain name and email, not some made up thing. In that way, I had better results when I just did a mail merge through Outlook/Word. People say the reason to use Mailchimp is because of the marketing/tracking features, but for me, I don't really need/use those features.

Even email marketing is not my primary job with Mailchimp I can finish intended campaign with templates and analyze result without advanced marketing knowledge.

Pros

Simple tool for creating and sending email campaign from template, understand and analyze results. With tags and custom fields in contact database you can segment contact to suit their interest.

Cons

Customizable dashboard would be helpful to better suits specific needs.

### "Excellent Email Marketing software with easy to understsand interface "

June 23, 2022

5.0

Using Mail Chimp has made my life so much easier. It's a great product for anyone who wants to inform their customer about the new updates, discounts, and offer in a timely manner Whether you are a Brick and mortar Business or an Online e-commerce business

Pros

Mail chimp is an amazing email marketing software to have if you are starting a business. I was in need of a tool that would allow me to easily design different monthly newsletters and Mail Chimp was the perfect fit. The interface is very easy to understand and makes the process of designing newsletters a breeze

Cons

I have been using Mail chimp for the past few months and I can't imagine life without it. It is so easy to use and the analytics are really great. It's one of the best email marketing software out there in my opinion. All I want from mail chimp is to shorten the process of integration with WordPress website

### "There's a reason if it's so famous "

April 2, 2023

4.0

Not to bad overall, but it becomes frustrating overtime, when you discover that many useful features are actually only in the paid version. And the lowest tier doesn't look really affordable for the small business. I'm not using anymore, there are better, smoother, less expensive alternatives on the marketplace.

Pros

It's a good starting point, with landing page builder and basic email management. They are fully integrated so setting them up is easy.

Cons

Too clunky, the UI is so slow and full of useless frills. Even if I tick on "keep me logged in for two weeks", the option doesn't work so I need to login every single time. Besides, the 2FA's only option is an SMS.

Reason for choosing Mailchimp

At that time, it seemed a better fit to my needs.

### "Great... if it wasn't for Omnivire"

December 12, 2019

4.0

Overall this email system is good. I like the workflow and use it. Again, if it wasn't for Omnivore being unreliable, it would be so much better. It's like they're trying to cut the fat out and cut way into the muscle while doing so.

Pros

User friendly drag and drop interface when setting up an email that you want sent out. Love the scheduling and automated emails, which most email software has these days.

Cons

I used to use MailChimp exclusively until I have issues with uploading client's legitimate email addresses to the system. Their system uses 3rd party software called "Omnivore" to check the emails to see if they're legit, or just something like hr@... info@... which by the way ARE legitimate emails addresses that people use! Omnivore wants you to scrub out the offending email addresses before you can upload. Here's the hilarious part. We were finally able to upload a small list to them when we removed one of the client's own emails (it had a name preceding their domain named email). This is what makes me use other software.

### "This was the first thing we ever used for mass marketing and email campaigns"

September 7, 2021

4.0

Overall MailChimp has enabled us to plan, design and execute great marketing campaigns, weather it was a mail shoot out or social media campaign.

Pros

There are a lot of things to be liked about this but the campaign creation and the ease of doing so is next level, I have used some other platforms offering same sort of service but trust me MailChimp is by far the easiest to design, modify, schedule and shoot out campaigns. Apart from this the tags make your life so easy while sending targeted campaigns. The reposting mechanism is awesome, the reports are detailed and will give you click and open ratio too along with the locations it was opened from.

Cons

The only thing that I personally found is that due to the massive use of MailChimp and marketing campaigns we have been having really low open rates, now this could also be due to junk/spam deliveries. But I wish this was not the case.

### "Easy, Simple, Relatively Cost Efficient Mail Option"

December 10, 2019

4.0

Really simple and easy. For advanced marketers, I would recommend other services (ActiveCampaign is my current favorite). For those getting started or needing the most cost effective solution, Mailchimp is great.

Pros

Everything about it is simple and easy. You can get started, set up your account, and send quality mail relatively quickly. I've used other email softwares that were a lot more complicated.

Cons

With the simplicity comes less features as well. Not a huge concern for beginners but if you're looking for some advanced marketing tools, I've found Mailchimp to lack a bit compared to other tools. Mailchimp is comparatively less expensive than the other tools so it is fairly priced.

Pros

I have been using Mailchimp for over 10 years for a reason. It offers me everything I need and I have neer had the need to upgrade.

Cons

Some time ago there was a major update that I did not necessarily like. The UI got a little confusing, and they made it more difficult to post from RSS to email, but after some time I got used to it.
