	AWeber	Constant Contact
Considered Both Products	AWeber Verified User Chose AWeber We switched to AWeber from Mailchimp because the system seemed better suited for our industry, even though it is more expensive. We may go back to Mailchimp now that they have added so many features. Constant Contact is too expensive for the value that we would receive. Incentivized Helpful? Ruby Javaid Chief Designer in Marketing at buzzy design, LLC (Design, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber I found Constant Contact's dashboard and email editor clunky and annoying to use. It's been several years so perhaps they have improved and updated it. Mailchimp is pretty comparable, and it just depends on your needs as to which is more appropriate. I do feel that Mailchimp's … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose AWeber MailChimp is a great "starter" email service, especially for consumer businesses. AWeber offers a bit more power and sophistication, especially for B2B companies, while still being easy to use and price competitive. Constant Contact had seemed to lag in features for a while … Incentivized Helpful? Joe Gatto VP of Marketing & International Business Development in Sales at ePaymints (Financial Services, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber AWeber is more robust, and for professional marketers because it has so many features like tagging, and moving people to different lists based on triggers. Its analytics features are important for marketing managers. AWeber's deliverability is better than MailChimp or Constant … Incentivized Helpful? Nicole Steen, M.A. Virtual Assistant in Professional Services at www.resumebynico.com (Graphic Design, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber It is less expensive than Constant Contact but more expensive than MailChimp. We ended up recently switching to Kajabi because it integrates landing pages. Constant Contact and MailChimp both have easier user interfaces and better design options. Incentivized Helpful? Gene Sower Internet Marketing Agency in Marketing at Samson Media, LLC (Marketing and Advertising, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber Compared to Constant Contact, I find Aweber very easy to use. Setting up an autoresponder sequence is very straightforward, at least for us because we've used it for so long. Constant Contact is a very difficult and hard to use service. We hate it and knock it every chance … Incentivized Helpful? Yvonne Herbst Owner in Marketing at Herbst Marketing (Marketing and Advertising, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber Compared to Constant Contact, AWeber offers a better deliverability rate and a better selection of opt-in form designs. Incentivized Helpful? Laurel Elders Founder at Institute for Integrative Coach Training (E-Learning, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber Their customer service outshines the rest! Incentivized Helpful? Mohammed Anzil Founder and Chief Editor in Social Media at Social Positives (Internet, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber The reason we [opted for] AWeber over others is for its email delivery rates. AWeber is great for freelancers, large enterprises, mid-zize business, etc. A 14% discount is available if you pay quarterly and more if you pay annually. AWeber is priced roughly in the middle of … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose AWeber It is easier of a solution to work with when compared to other alternatives such as SendinBlue or MailChimp. Ultimately what I valued is the deliverability and quality to be able to deliver our emails. If you are seeking a more robust enterprise-level solution I would then … Incentivized Helpful? Greg Dungan Owner in Marketing at Two Creative Design Group, LLC (Marketing and Advertising, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber I have also used Constant Contact, MailChimp, and Lead Master. I think that Aweber is superior to these other applications in it's ability to "get down to business" so to speak. By this I mean that the interface is less about cartoony graphics and done-for-you simplicity. … Incentivized Helpful? Nichol Skaggs Virtual Assistant and Online Business Manager at Social Media Implementations (Marketing and Advertising, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber I prefer AWeber over 1ShoppingCart because it is less time consuming then having to write html broadcasts and auto-responders and AWeber doesn't seem to have the delivery complications to some email addresses like yahoo and gmail that 1ShoppingCart seems to have sometimes. I … Helpful? Rick Hindman Owner in Marketing at RJH Graphics (Internet, 1-10 employees) Chose AWeber My clients typically have selected AWeber by the time they contact me. I've found it to be on par with the first three above in terms of capabilities and I think it's more intuitive to use than all of the above, particularly Infusionsoft. Helpful? Verified User Chose AWeber I like Aweber so much better than Constant Contact. It syncs with my website (Wordpress and Optimize Press) and Constant Contact doesn't. Helpful?	Constant Contact Angelo Gioia (6000+) Executive Director at AgentsofAmerica.ORG (Insurance, 1-10 employees) Chose Constant Contact In the past, I have look at: AWeber, Emma Mail, Mail Chimp and Infusion Soft to name a few. They weren't from my opinion easy to use, not as user-friendly as Constant Contact, had a greater learning curve, did not have many templates or automatic A/B testing. No survey feature. … Incentivized Helpful?
