Intuit Mailchimp

At Success Strategies, we use Mailchimp for email marketing. From my personal experience, Mailchimp is the best E-mail marketing software.

At Paxful, we use Mailchimp for email marketing. I highly recommend using Mailchimp as it's perfect for small to medium businesses. Designing an email campaign from scratch is so easy and there's a wide range of templates that can be customized. Integrating Mailchimp with Facebook, Google Ads, and major e-Commerce platforms is a breeze - even less tech-savvy users can do it themselves in no time. Mailchimp is also cheaper than some of its contemporaries.The tool is far from perfect though. Alternatives, such as Aweber, boasts more email templates and more free stock images than Mailchimp. Contacting customer support can be problematic as Mailchimp has no live chat feature on its website.Despite its drawbacks, I still think Mailchimp is the best tool to execute email marketing campaigns as it simplifies the process for newbies and digital marketers, like me, who have busy schedules.

At Galintel, our marketing department uses Mailchimp for email marketing. Most of the tools and templates are accessible. The software is very simple to use, even those without a background using the tool doesn't require too much time learning. Mailchimp is also affordable, not to mention the thorough reporting that it can give. The only con that we can say is the more advanced automation that we require delivering for particular queries and clients

Mailchimp is a leader when it comes to email marketing. At Car Passionate, we use Mailchimp for email marketing. It has a free, yes, free service plan so already a winner. Additionally, it has many features such as an email builder and auto responders. This software also allows you to set up delivery times based on your customer's location, which is a brilliant bonus. Mailchimp has a good support base which people can access on different platforms. A negative is that you have to display their branding in your email correspondence, which isn't an issue for me but I would assume that some companies would see this as an advertising campaign.

At e-Intelligence, We are using MailChimp for our email marketing.

Pros:

The first pro that comes to my mind is its thorough reporting. Basically everything you need to know is available in the reporting like clients, Geo tracking, social media and google analytics integration etc.

Another benefit is its free for up to 2000 subscribers that isn't a bad deal at all.

Next benefit is its templates. It has a clean interface and a simple and powerful editor to make your email stand out.

Cons:

Apart from the benefits, the first con I feel is its subscription plans. The subscription plans apart from the free plan are having higher pricing compared to some of the other tools.

When it comes to advanced automation for emails, this tool is somewhat disappointing.

At ComfyLiving, we use Mailchimp for email marketing.

Mailchimp is a fantastic email marketing tool for small and medium businesses.

Some of its best features include:

Great free plan

Mailchimp offers its services for free for up to 10,000 emails per month and 2,000 email addresses. Their free plan offers more than enough for most small-to-medium businesses that don’t have a huge subscription base, but somewhat smaller, more focused ones.

Simplicity of use

Mailchimp is effortless to use. The preset templates work great, so even if there isn’t a professional person in-house who’ll take care of the visuals and design, they’ll provide amazing-looking emails. The navigation is easy, and all the steps that you need to take to create a visually appealing email are clear to the user.

Advanced reports

Mailchimp provides an abundance of options such as A/B testing, or detailed reports, even with the free plan.

Cons:

Awkward interface for some users

As much as the users who had never used any email marketing tool find Mailchimp simple to use, it can get tricky to get used to for the ones who switched from other tools.

Pricey for higher volumes of emails

If your subscription base exceeds 2,000 email addresses, and you need to switch to a paid plan, you’ll discover it’s quite expensive.

At Parkway Digital, we use Mailchimp for email marketing. The drag-and-drop functionality, automation and other easy-to-use features make Mailchimp our go-to, both for our clients and our own email newsletters.

What do you think are the pros of that particular software?

Using Mailchimp is straightforward, so our clients can build their own emails. Yet, we still have the ability to use more advanced features, like sending targeted automations.

Mailchimp makes it really simple to send on-brand emails to different groups of customers with customizable templates, segmented lists, triggered automations and detailed reports.Mailchimp also integrates with other digital tools you already use, including online shopping carts, Facebook custom audiences, Google Analytics and ecommerce stores.

Mailchimp stores everything, including contact lists and email drafts, making it the only tool you'll need for email marketing. You can log on from your computer or theMailchimp app to make changes or look at your last email’s performance. It's also very affordable, especially for small businesses with a newer contact list and infrequent newsletters.

 Mailchimp's Tools are designed to deliver email success. Mailchimp allows you to group recipients by how recently they purchased a product, how they learned about your company,demographics, geographic location or any other characteristic you’ve collected from your subscribers. To track email-driven website visits and purchases, you can integrate your Mailchimp account with Google Analytics and your ecommerce store, whether you use WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento or another provider.

 Mailchimp helps you write a catchy subject line with a Subject line researcher and quick open rate stats for your last few subject lines. One ofMailchimp’s coolest features is the ability to test subject lines using the A/BTest option when setting up a new campaign. You’ll create two subject lines andMailchimp will send a portion of your emails with one subject line and another chunk with your second subject line. After the given time frame, the remainder of your list will be sent the email with the subject line with the best open rate.

At Talk Travel, We have extensively used MailChimp as well as some other mailing services, and hence can comment on your query.

Pros of using MailChimp

1) Mailchimp is really simple and easy to use, and is a very smooth introduction to setting up a mailing service, especially if you are a first time user.

2) The user interface is easy to navigate and the Call-to-Action buttons are well defined.

3) Mailchimp provides some very handy templates to use for your email. Also, you can create your own templates as it provides a great set of visual elements which could be used in the mail.

4) Mailchimp has a forever free plan, which can help you evaluate and see if it fits your needs. The Free plan allows customers to store 2,000 contacts and send 10,000 emails per month, with a daily send limit of 2,000.

5) There are multiple integrations available with third party services. For e.g., integrate it with your Facebook account and you can host the subscription service there also.

6) Mailchimp provides comparative metrics, where users can compare their email campaigns performances against others of the similar types.

Cons of using MailChimp

1) MailChimp can start getting expensive as your email volumes start increasing. In comparison Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) can turn out to be extensively cheaper (actual costs depends on the volume of usage).

2) MailChimp can cancel, suspend and also revoke your account without prior notification, if your emails are not performing well - i.e., getting substantial unsubscribes and/or getting marked as spam.

3) You can send emails to only one contact list at a time. Inability to send to multiple lists at once, can be an issue if you are targeting different customer segments at the same time.

It is an excellent tool to use :

1) If you are a newbie to email marketing

2) If your subscriber volume is not very high

3) Your contact list is of very good quality - the probability of unsubscribing/getting marked spam is low.

But starts getting expensive and a bit unfriendly, if:

1) You need to send mass volumes - then it can be costly

2) You need to customise a lot, and use multiple lists at the same time

At BrandingWatch.com, we use MailChimp for automated emails and email signups.

MailChimp is reasonably priced and has a long track record of being reliable. The drawback is that MailChimp has become a little less intuitive over the years as they've added more and more features.
