What users say

It was great - I love them and suggest them to all friends getting started, I wouldn't trust any other company for a product in this price range and offering.
It has been a good experience, would recommend specially if you are just starting creating your newsletters and want to practice before spending a significant amount of money on this type of software.

My Go-to for email marketing

Reviewed 3 years ago

Mailchimp has been my go-to for 5+ years and I see no reason to change that now. It's simple, easy-to-use, and affordable. I also care about who I work with. From what I can see as an outsider looking in, they have a great company culture. I once found a mistake in their API documentation and they sent me a free t-shirt! Most companies aren't willing to spend money just to say thanks, and I think that says something about the culture and character of the company.

Pros

Easy to setup: I've used Mailchimp in the launch of dozens of brands and digital products. Mailchimp is so easy to setup; I can literally have an account up and running, collecting email addresses within 20 minutes. Great free option: One of my favorite things about Mailchimp is the fact that you get up to 2,000 contacts for free. Having that as an option (particularly for new businesses) is absolutely...

Cons

In the last couple of years Mailchimp has made some changes to their pricing structure that I don't particularly love: 1) Pay as you go features have become more limited compared to their monthly plans. 2) Monthly rates have increased (although that's bound to happen at some point). 3) They now include some social platform contacts in your allotted contacts (i.e. you pay for them like they're email contacts). As well, Mailchimp automatically increases your bill when you cross over your plan subscriber threshold. I'm not a huge fan of that, but I suppose I prefer it to them just disabling collection of new contacts.

Mailchimp: All-in-One Marketing Platform for Small Businesses

Reviewed 3 months ago

Overall, I have generally positive experiences with Mailchimp, citing its ease of use, robust features, and reliable performance. However, some users have experienced issues with customer support and deliverability.

Pros

Some pros of Mailchimp include its user-friendly interface, customizable templates, automation workflows, integration with other platforms, and reporting and analytics tools. It also offers a free plan for small businesses.

Cons

Some cons of Mailchimp include limited automation features on the free plan, higher pricing compared to some competitors, occasional deliverability issues, and restrictions on certain industries and content types.

Great Email Marketing Tool with Excellent Customer Support

Reviewed 2 months ago

The customer support team at Mailchimp is truly exceptional, providing quick and helpful assistance whenever it's needed. Their online knowledge base is also a great resource for troubleshooting and learning how to get the most out of the platform.

Pros

Mailchimp is a great email marketing tool that is incredibly easy to use, with a drag-and-drop email builder and intuitive campaign management. The customer support is top-notch, with a responsive and knowledgeable team available to help with any questions or issues. The variety of features offered, including segmentation and automation, make it a great choice for businesses of all sizes.

Cons

While Mailchimp is a powerful tool, it can be quite expensive compared to other email marketing platforms. Additionally, some of the more advanced features, such as A/B testing, are only available on higher-tier plans.

There's a reason if it's so famous

Reviewed 2 months ago

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.

Inuitive and Robust: Mailchimp makes it easy to create campaigns that deliver

Reviewed 4 years ago

I've used Mailchimp for about 12 years. I've also used Constant Contact and Emma. I liked that Emma gave me a live account rep. I liked that Constant Contact had a trustworthy legacy feel. But Mailchimp feels like home. It's a perfect combination of a boutique platform like Emma + a legacy system like Constant Contact. They have a stellar free-level package (up to 2,000 addresses) that makes them a no-brainer go-to for any small or start-up company.

Pros

Mailchimp has easy and intuitive drag-and-drop campaign building blocks that make it easy to create professional emails and campaign landing pages. It's easy to connect Mailchimp to your online store to embed products, customize campaigns to folks who've opted in to lists or purchased particular products at your online store, and you can automate complete email/landing page chains. What you're able...

Cons

Any gripe I might have with Mailchimp is the same gripe I would have with any email platform. I would like their email and landing page-building software (or web-building software) to be as intuitive as Squarespace, which is honestly a whole other level of drag-and-drop, so perhaps a pipe dream. Over the years, I also haven't felt like I had a good support option. Their help page goes to the Mailchimp...

A Necessary Tool for a 21st Century Business that's Reasonably Easy to Use, with Great Support

Reviewed 4 years ago

We are required to send out newsletters to our investors (over 800 of them), and this had made it easy to design good-looking emails. And you can save templates, etc., to use over and over and modify them each time. We've never had a technical problem with it, although we've had issues with 3rd party apps and linked software connecting to Mailchimp. But I contacted their support and they were able to help me fix the issue, even though it wasn't their own software! I thought that was nice of them. They could've said "That's not our app, so we can't help you," but they didn't -- they walked me through a fix.

Pros

It has to be their support chat function and their useful Help articles. I did not get into my business so that I could run mail marketing software, so I appreciate anything that helps ease the learning curve. Email marketing is a necessary evil, and Mailchimp lessens the unpleasantness considerably. With no prior experience, we got up and running quickly. (We tried a few of these apps, and this one...

Cons

The price! It gets expensive quickly. I guess the upside to that is it makes you hone your marketing so you are profitable. You have to cut out waste and hone your mailing list so that it's more efficient. And from my research, the other programs cost about the same. I don't mind paying for ease-of-use, but I wish they would explain "cleaning" and "archiving" and other functions that would help me get my monthly costs down. I'm not planning on jumping ship anytime soon, but if they raise their prices again (they just raised them recently), then I will be gone.

A User-Friendly, Cost-Effective Choice

Reviewed 3 years ago

I'm extremely satisfied with MailChimp and I know our company has benefited from it. We're saving money every year while also exceeding the quality we were previously accustomed to.

Pros

When I started at my company, they were using a different email management platform. At the expiration of our contract, I shopped other options and was familiar with MailChimp from use at a previous company. It was, without a doubt, the standout choice. The price, user-friendly interface, and no contract made it leaps and bounds above other options.

Cons

With other email platforms, it usually involved signing a contract or creating some kind of time obligation. As such, I was accustomed to being assigned a day-to-day contact or point person for any of my concerns, questions, etc. With MailChimp, actually speaking to someone without already having an account seemed next to impossible. I think having someone to speak to when setting up a new account would have been nice to make sure we were covering all the bases and starting off on the right foot. That said, they do have support forums that have tons of information, if you're up to reading for an extended period of time.

Mailchimp: A Comprehensive Email Marketing Solution for startups

Reviewed 4 months ago

Mailchimp is an excellent solution for anyone looking to manage their email marketing campaigns. The software is user-friendly, offers a comprehensive set of features, and has robust automation and reporting capabilities. I highly recommend Mailchimp to any small business owner looking for an affordable and effective solution for their email marketing needs.

Pros

I have been using Mailchimp for a few months now, and I must say that I am thoroughly impressed with the software. As a small business owner, I was looking for an affordable and user-friendly solution to manage my email marketing campaigns, and Mailchimp has exceeded my expectations.One of the things I love about Mailchimp is how user-friendly it is.

Cons

Limited customization: While Mailchimp offers a wide range of features, I find that they are limited in their ability to fully customize their email campaigns to their specific needs.Email deliverability: There are issues with email deliverability, including emails ending up in spam folders or not being delivered at all.Automation limitations: While Mailchimp offers automation features, they are limited in their ability to create complex automation sequences.Pricing: While Mailchimp offers a free plan, I feelthat they need to upgrade to a premium plan in order to access all of the features they need, which can get expensive.

Great for Email Marketing and Campaign Analytics, not so great for List Management

Reviewed 2 months ago

Overall, my experience with Mailchimp has been positive. The detailed analytics have also been helpful in refining my email marketing strategies. However, the pricing can be a downside for businesses with larger lists, and the limitations on the free plan may not be enough for some.

Pros

User-friendly interface: Mailchimp has a clean and intuitive interface that is easy to navigate, even for those without much technical expertise.Customizable templates: Mailchimp offers a range of pre-built templates that can be customized to fit a business's specific needs and branding.Good analytics: Mailchimp provides detailed analytics on email campaigns, including open and click-through rates.Integrations: Mailchimp integrates with many other tools and platforms, including e-commerce platforms, CRMs, and social media.

Cons

Pricing: Mailchimp can become expensive for businesses with larger lists, as pricing is based on the number of subscribers.Limited features on the free plan: While Mailchimp does offer a free plan, it is somewhat limited in terms of features and functionality.Integrations: I really wish Mailchimp would be able to integrate seamlessly with Google Sheets to sync the campaign report data. Such as syncing the contacts who opened/clicked on a specific email campaign into Google Sheets to be able to share that data with a sales team.

Audience is increased with the automation of this platform.

Reviewed 2 months ago

Email marketing can be automated with this platform, it has been very reliable with the features it offers. Although their prices are adapted to each individual or company, if you want the payment not to be made per contact, or simply not to be taken as one more contact when a contact is placed on different lists. From everything else, the interface is friendly and powerful, with the full ability to have reports and analysis, plus the variety of tools to create campaigns means that this platform does not fall short. It meets my goals and needs for email marketing.

Pros

I like that it has a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to create and send emails, as well as manage subscribers and track performance. I can choose from a variety of templates, drag and drop elements, and customize my own layout and content type.The analytics and reporting feature is very powerful, it allows me to measure the effectiveness of email campaigns and optimize them for better results. You can view metrics like open rate, click-through rate, bounce rate, unsubscribe rate, revenue generated, and more. You can also compare performance against industry benchmarks and get personalized recommendations from Mailchimp's data-driven insights.

Cons

It should charge for the active audience instead of the capacity of contacts that each plan may have, this can be expensive if you charge per contact since if the contact is duplicated the bill will increase, so if you have a contact in multiple lists or segments will be charged more than it should leading to not having such an attractive ROI.Experience with HTML is required to be able to create more personalized emails, since if there is something that is not found in the Mailchimp editor, it will be a problem since adding customization outside of what the editor offers would imply writing the template in HTML and that requires previous knowledge.

A renewed classic

Reviewed 9 months ago

If you are a small business owner, an email marketing solution is one of the first tools you need to use in your e-commerce section. If you look on Google, you will find Mailchimp and others fighting for first place on the search. I tried all of them when I started on this, and Mailchimp was the only one for me that delivered a great set of tools for free on their first tier. This pricing model allows small businesses like yours to start without having to invest more money to begin operating. Then, after your business grows, Mailchimp stays with you, and their subscription tiers are affordable. So, if you are starting on email marketing and you have a small business, give Mailchimp a try, you won't regret it.

Pros

Mailchimp was my first approximation to a customer relationship management tool and, after many years, still is my usual selection and advice to other small businesses. It is an easy-to-use platform with a great development team who cares about its clients. In recent years the tool has evolved and added new features, all great additions.

Cons

Right now, nothing about Mailchimp is bad for my small business.

It has really great features which makes it really easy to stay in touch with clients while marketing brands, conducting research or sending an occasional newsletter. It is however quite difficult to navigate sometimes and can be a challenge for some users.

Pros

I started using MailChimp a while ago and I love all the ways it helps my small business. Firstly, I love how it is a nifty tool for keeping an eye on clients and effectively engaging with them. I like how it can be easily consolidated with many other software and the variety of languages it comes in. I think it's really nice and convinient that the software can be easily deployed from different types...

Cons

Mailchimp can get very complicated, I found the user interface to be really tricky for an ordinary user such as myself. Its easy to get lost in the confusing, esoteric jargon and customer service in my expirience isn't always quick to respond when you need their help. In as much as the automation feature is great, the way in which it is setup is very tricky. Lastly, the data management and manipulation features are a bit too limited.

A Comprehensive Review of Mailchimp: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

Reviewed 10 months ago

I use Mailchimp for my email marketing and have found it to be a very effective tool. It is easy to use and has a lot of features that allow me to customize my emails to fit my brand. I also like that I can automate my email marketing so that I don't have to spend a lot of time manually sending out emails. However, there are some downsides to using Mailchimp. First, it can be expensive if you have a large list. Second, the deliverability rates are not always great, which means your emails may end up in the spam folder. Overall, I think Mailchimp is a good tool for small businesses that are looking for an easy-to-use email marketing solution. If you want to send lots of emails or need more customization options, then it might not be right for you.

Pros

Mailchimp might be the most well-known email marketing platform on the market, but that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily the best one. Below, we’ll talk about what we like and don’t like about Mailchimp to give you the information you need to make an informed decision about whether this solution is right for your business. We’ll also provide resources to help you compare pricing with other popular email...

Cons

1. Mailchimp's user interface could be more intuitive. I often find myself feeling lost and having to search for features that should be easy to find. 2. The automation features are great, but they can be very complex and time-consuming to set up. I would love it if there were some templates or easier ways to get started. 3. Their customer support is inconsistent. I've had some great experiences, but...

Solid program, but cost and introduction of subscription pricing made it unviable for us

Reviewed 10 months ago

We still have a positive perception of Mailchimp. It served us well over a long period and was low-stress and reasonably priced. However, as they changed direction with the software (and pricing) it no longer became appropriate for email newsletters only. There is probably tremendous value for those who want to take advantage of segments and the more CRM like features!

Pros

Mailchimp is incredibly solid, the UI is familiar to many staff (so learning curve was slight), and they seemed to maintain high quality sending ip integrity (so open rates remained high). Other competitors we have tested over the years seemed more flexible with their sending quality, so we noticed sharp open-rate drops (even after warming up the list). Campaigns were easy to setup and it was relatively easy to set up attractive emails (or pull in templates from elsewhere). Reporting made sense, and it was useful to be able to track client engagement over time.

Cons

We were very committed to Mailchimp over a long period (10+ years) but primarily for email newsletters. As the software developed, they continued to introduce more and more features, but in some ways this just complicated things for us. We used Mailchimp for infrequent mailouts to large mailing lists, and this worked well when they allowed you to buy adhoc credits. However, when they introduced subscription pricing only (arguably fair enough given all their new features) it made it entirely unviable to continue.

MailChimp is the best all in one marketing solution for all types of businesses

Reviewed 10 months ago

We wanted an all-in-one marketing platform to use for all our marketing activities, for building landing pages, designing workflows for marketing automation, managing all our campaigns and sending emails. The platform has been great and very effective for us.

Pros

1. Offers truly exceptional UX/UI 2. Comes in a very great pricing 3. Plenty of data available for training 4. Very easy to build workflows for marketing automation 5. Easy to manage all your leads and campaigns 6. Excellent for forms and surveys

Cons

1. Customer support is not the best 2. It is ideal for sending emails under 5000 contacts, for bulk sending I would never recommend MailChimp 3. Reporting and analytics is very basic and not customisable
