Product Marketing Manager at a translation and localization position with 51-200 employees
Cost effective communication solution that has added value to our projects by facilitating automated and ad hoc customer communication
Reporting for this solution could be improved. For example, when you run A/B tests or MVT tests with multiple variants, then it is difficult to get a consolidated report. There are limitations on how to use the automation. The sending of messages could be more transactional as it is only possible to synchronize one per day.

Good for digital marketing purposes, such as creating and managing email campaigns
Mailchimp could be more user-friendly for setting up WordPress websites. Some of the complex settings can be time-consuming to configure. So, setting up Mailchimp for WordPress websites can be time-consuming for an average user but not necessarily difficult. It's time-consuming, especially when adding custom code to email campaigns. It requires some experience and knowledge to do it effectively.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We use this solution for user onboarding via email automation and to send out product update newsletters, and we also use it to send out maintenance messages or ad hoc communication focused on a specific topic."
"MailChimp's most important functionality is its automation feature."
"There was no email marketing at our company before MailChimp, so this product allowed us to begin email marketing which is less costly and less resource intensive."
"MailChimp enables us to manage how the content crosses over and monitors each series or campaign while providing in-depth analytics for each vertical market."
"We do more outbound marketing as this method makes it so much easier to do."
"With RSS campaigns, nobody has to login every morning to send the daily news email to 19K readers."
"MailChimp is solid and easy to use for clients, but has all the power we need to build great campaigns, A/B test them, get them delivered, tracked, and report."
"The ease of use and price point enables us to scale our email initiatives efficiently as we grow."
"MailChimp has many capabilities."
 

Cons

"Reporting for this solution could be improved. For example, when you run A/B tests or MVT tests with multiple variants, then it is difficult to get a consolidated report."
"A standalone system for private servers would be ideal."
"The video embedding doesn’t render until you send a campaign, which makes it hard to see the layout."

"MailChimp’s reports on audience engagement are not the most robust."
"MailChimp should have a better offering for ready made modern templates but this is usually supplied by the community."
"Mailchimp could be more user-friendly for setting up WordPress websites. Some of the complex settings can be time-consuming to configure. So, setting up Mailchimp for WordPress websites can be time-consuming for an average user."
"It gives me errors every time I try to send a newsletter to more than 400 people at a time."
