Chose Intuit Mailchimp
First, the product has to do what it's supposed to do; and second, it has to be easy to use. MailChimp does well in both categories. I have found that most of the big name competitors certainly handle the first one but fall a bit short on the usability side of it.

Chose Intuit Mailchimp
We have used several email marketing tools. Without a doubt a big plus to give to Mailchimp is how easy it is to use and how great their free features are. As the business grew, we continued using Mailchimp, but were so let down by how their pricing works, how barebones the …
Intuit Mailchimp is much more intuitive and easier to navigate than Constant Contact. We also had issues with Constant Contact's link clicks and reporting features, which were giving inaccurate information. Accurate reporting is incredibly important to us, and that was a big …
I have used a lot of email marketing tools over the years and Intuit Mailchimp is one that I keep going back to, it simple and easy to use, no messing around and it does what it says one tin.
I've had several clients switch to Intuit Mailchimp from Constant Contact. I think the features and functions of Intuit Mailchimp proved to be better and the value to be better.
Mailchimp has a much better looking email design compared to HubSpot and Vertical Response. It seems to automatically optimize email sections for different devices and viewing/testing emails before they go out seems to be a much cleaner process for sending tests to team members …
Blackbaud Raiser's Edge NXT is our primary CRM for managing our constituent database, maintaining donor records, and processing donations. It includes communication and email components as well, but they don't seem as user-friendly or robust as Mailchimp. Therefore, we have …
We chose Intuit Mailchimp over competing solutions because we found their free tier more generous, which allowed us to get started easier. Also compared to other solutions we found their drag and drop email builder to offer a much better experience and easier UI. We also liked …
First consideration is the cost, the value is affordable for a small size company like us. The second is the simplicity of how Mailchimp organize the functionalities on the platform. HubSpot has too much burdensome modules would overwhelm a small size company. We thought about …
Our previous in-house system was slow and cumbersome to use, requiring more manual work to build content. Intuit Mailchimp handles text, pictures and links much more efficiently, meaning that we can quickly paste in format into templated boxes, then define who we wish to send …
Although Mailchimp's pricing has increased recently, we opted to stick with them after evaluating these and a few other platforms because, overall, their combination of features and pricing is superior. Additionally, we must consider the time and effort required to migrate to a …
I don't think they are comparable; we use Google Ads to put our website at the top of the list when someone googles certain words. We use meta business to manage our social media. Google aims to gain customers, while Mailchimp is used to interact with both existing and new …
Intuit Mailchimp gives a 360" CRM experience and gives the possibility to manage social media, texts, pushes, emails, and other interactions in one place. It is really handy and offers numerous possibilities for creating complex marketing campaigns within a single platform. …
I thought both worked similar, but I thought Intuit Mailchimp was easter to use from the get go, and I thought Constant Contact was too "templated" in both appearance and style - that I feel like I have more control in Intuit Mailchimp.
We have always used Intuit Mailchimp in regards to sending out our email campaigns. We do use SMS Broadcast for our text campaigns however they do not offer beyond sending SMS's, which Intuit Mailchimp does allow for both.
I had meetings with representatives of those two companies but, even though they are aimed for internal comms, they were less useful and complex than Intuit Mailchimp which gave us more possibilities i.e. regarding the customization and reporting. So you are on a good way to …
I loved Mailchimp 10 years ago, and as a long-time user, I appreciate working with the brand I've been attached to for so many years. It still works well with regular email campaigns and with automation. However, if your email audience is constantly growing and you have a limited budget, it may be wise to explore the more affordable options.
Mailchimp allows you to manage your mailing list really well. You can subscribe people, unsubscribe people manage the mailing list directly into segments, and what not.
Mailchimp has features where you can create campaigns based on your mailing lists and send out newsletters to your subscribers based on a multitude of parameters that you can setup. Such as send email daily, weekly, monthly and they also have event based mails that you can send out.
Mailchimp also has a feature where you can design your emails. The look and aesthetics are very important when sending emails to your subscribers and all those needs are addressed here.
The interface remains a cluttered, non-intuitive mess. That's true from the haphazard way features are organized to the actual email layout.
Analytics have never been a priority, and I don't see that changing with Intuit's new ownership. I'm very frustrated over the limited choices for reporting, even when using third-party solutions. If I needed that function, I would not use MailChimp.
I would love to develop a workflow screen that lets me focus on the things that I use all the time. Customizing the interface where the content actually goes into the software would help.
I never understood why we couldn't import a document into a MC template. At best, we're spending time copying-and-pasting from one app into MC.
We love the product. One thing we haven't mentioned yet is the human element. Recently, MailChimp re-structured their plans/pricing based on the feedback they had received. They listened to a pain their users were experiencing, then strategized a solution, and implemented it fairly. The updated pricing strategy was intended to save subscribers money, and they did a great job of communicating it to their users. I would be surprised if anyone reacted negatively to the change.
I think Mailchimp enables companies to cater to their customers without requiring direct interaction with them. A simple email can convey a great deal of information. The SMS feature can give a brief link with a sentence to show promotional offers. I think that best fits with the upcoming generation; I don't always want to read a long email with lots of pictures. I think Mailchimp is easy to navigate and has many valuable features.
I have, in the 4+ years that I've used Mailchimp, never seen an issue that restricted the use of their software/tools. I don't know of a single time when they're system crashed or went down. I could be wrong, but I honestly haven't experienced any issues with outages, errors or unplanned downtime
I haven't noticed any slow speeds from Mailchimp or their tools. I think the landing pages load quickly and look nice. The email reports and editing operates smoothly and doesn't take time to load. Additionally, when I use Mailchimp in conjunction with Zapier + Hubspot I don't notice any drag between any of these tools
Any time we needed their help or support they responded promptly, friendly, and straightforwardly. It's a great feature to have multi-language support as we are a diverse team, and anyone can reach out to receive help. We've always solved our inquires
I am little satisfied with the MailChimp implementation process, since although it has been a bit complicated and we have had various complications that tried to affect our performance, with a little general effort, we take full advantage and currently It is out main marketing and advertising campaign platform.
We chose Intuit Mailchimp over competing solutions because we found their free tier more generous, which allowed us to get started easier. Also compared to other solutions we found their drag and drop email builder to offer a much better experience and easier UI. We also liked their paid features and could see that we would be able to use Intuit Mailchimp for a long time and not need to migrate to another solution.
Mailchimp over the years I've used it has grown in leaps and bounds. They have added so many additional features than were previously available. They are truly an all-in-one marketing platform now. If you're a small operation and just want to add email to your marketing efforts, they're there for you. If you're a larger operation and want to start sending postcard advertisements, they can do that. If you'd good with that and want to kick up your marketing by going social, you can do that on their platform. They are truly able to be as small as you need, but also get quite large in whatever it is you'd like to do through their system.
One of my retail web store clients was sending out email specials and notices about once a month. After clicking the send button, we would watch Google Analytics and the current site users would light up immediately. Often, the current site visitors would pop up to 20, 30 or more after the email was sent. On a normal day, seeing 1 or 2 online users would be OK.
Pretty much in all cases, we could see an uptick in positive activity after sending out a Intuit Mailchimp email to a list.
