Robert Foreman Designated Broker Chose GetResponse MailChimp and Constant Contact Incentivized Helpful? Mohammed Anzil Founder and Chief Editor Chose GetResponse Mailchimp is the best alternative to GetResponse but GetResponse's innovative design makes them better compared to. What I like more on GetResponse is it helps us to work from any device from anywhere and carry out a campaign from one device to another device. Mailchimp offers … Incentivized Helpful? Adam Blinzler Marketing Automation Manager Chose GetResponse GetResponse is much stronger in lead management and versatility than an ESP like MailChimp or SFMC.

Andrew Walker Physical Therapist, President Chose GetResponse Mailchimp is more basic but is free.

GetResponse seems to have been a happy medium for us as it provides the services we … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose GetResponse We are evaluating new vendors and leaning towards MailChimp. Incentivized Helpful? David Faustina Managing Partner Chose GetResponse Not the top of the heap and certainly far from the bottom. GR is arguably one of the best solutions for Home based or small shops.

User Testimonials
	GetResponse	RD Station Marketing
Likelihood to Recommend	GetResponse is good for marketing automation newbies that want a powerful platform without a steep learning curve. It appears to have a strong set of tools for creating automated sequences, but it's not your solution for large enterprise usage. Also, seeing as how competitive the market's become, while it's not expensive per se, it is a bit on the pricey side relative to some. Incentivized Barry Feldman Owner Read full review	No answers on this topic
Pros	If you understand coding the ability to use dynamic content based on smart searches was very useful. The drop and drag workflows were very easy to create and use Allowed for simple automation and nurture campaigns to occur off of events Incentivized Adam Blinzler Marketing Automation Manager Read full review	No answers on this topic
Cons	Lists are rejected on baseless grounds. They recommend a service to clean lists and even after being cleaned, emails and lists are rejected. They purged 80% of our email list because they were not interacting regularly enough with our emails. Their drag and drop editor is set up poorly, if you have similar look and feel emails there is no way to know which you are in. Often email templates do not save and you have to start over. Sometimes scheduled emails don't even send. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Likelihood to Renew	As I mentioned before. I believe that the platform is easy to use. Simple and easy process from start to finish. Email efficient and get to the client quickly. Catch errors that would prevent getting to where i need it to go. Overall great experience and would renew without question Elizabeth Fishman Project Manager Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	Excellent general support. However, in case of an escalation, their turnaround time over email (follow through) can go higher Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Over the years we have worked with quite a few email platforms. We feel that GetResponse is a solid competitor. The CRM side is not as strong as a product like Keep but we don't expect it to be. If we are really being fair and comparing apples to apples, then GetResponse is as good as any of these other products. Especially in the area of the visual builder, I honestly think it is just about as good as Keep. And it is better than some of these other products. Again, keeping in mind the cost and the niche GetResponse fills, it stacks up very well against the other products we have used. Incentivized Jeff Smith Owner Principal Read full review	No answers on this topic
Return on Investment	Our marketing emails have been much more professional, scheduled, beautiful, and manageable since switching AWAY from GetResponse, so in that sense the platform did not provide the kind of ROI we'd prefer. For delivering our regular daily newsletter, GetResponse has served us well and has delivered at an above-average rate to our mailing list.
