    Chose Intuit Mailchimp
    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.

    Chose Intuit Mailchimp
    We used MailPoet before moving over to Mailchimp. It's a rather different tool because they have a WordPress plugin, however their feature set was rather limited and didn't really fit into our organization's needs.

    Chose Intuit Mailchimp
    Constant Contact seems to be the most common alternative that people have gravitate towards, and for a low-tech person I would say that's appropriate. AWeber is a great alternative for people like affiliate marketers. Mad Mimi is a semi-popular alternative, but frankly I don't …

    Chose Mailchimp Transactional Email (Mandrill)
    I haven't personally used Sendgrid or Klaviyo before because we had been using Mandrill already. When I joined the company, however, I believe it's overall functionality paired with their price point was more competitive than other solutions out there at the time. With how …

    Chose Mailchimp Transactional Email (Mandrill)
    Amazon SES was a service we evaluated before eventually landing on Mandrill. SES is very affordable, but some of our less technically-inclined employees found it difficult to use. We also found the API to be lacking in meeting our needs. And as an existing paid MailChimp …

    Chose Mailchimp Transactional Email (Mandrill)
    So we actually work with clients across all of the platforms listed above, but Mandrill has a huge ease of use bonus in its favor, especially when working with clients who are setting up a Cart Recovery style marketing campaign for the first time or are looking for a bit of a …

    Sendgrid offers a lot of the same features as Mandrill, but goes a lot further in helping you achieve maximum deliverability for your e-mails. They have a respectable free tier for sending as well as receiving emails, and their paid tiers are very reasonably priced.

    Chose Mailchimp Transactional Email (Mandrill)
    Being first a MailChimp customer, moving to using Mandrill as a transactional API based solution was an easy and obvious solution. At the time of evaluation Mandrill's API was far superior to SendGrid's API.
