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.

A scalable and easy-to-use solution that has a good user interface and a responsive support team
The product had a couple of bugs. However, the vendor resolved the bugs quickly. People wanting to use the solution must try it out. If they like it, they can switch it on. I have seen and tried many other products. ZeptoMail is pretty easy and straightforward. Overall, I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"MailChimp's most important functionality is its automation feature."
"Seeing the click rates, i.e., what people are clicking on to gauge what the subscribers to our emails are interested in is the most valuable feature."
"MailChimp almost doubled our email marketing delivery and open rates."
"With RSS campaigns, nobody has to login every morning to send the daily news email to 19K readers."
"We managed to easily build and send modern, nice looking, relevant newsletters to hundreds of followers, analyze our projects and think of new and better ways to do it, because of the diversity that comes with it."
"It’s very easy, and you can start using it without being an expert in e-marketing."
"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."
"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."
"The user interface is valuable to me."
 

Cons

"Pretty much everything, and the RSS campaign is the only reason we stick with MailChimp."
"Its admin interface, particularly for setting up a new campaign, is not the most intuitive."
"MailChimp should have a better offering for ready made modern templates but this is usually supplied by the community."
"The video embedding doesn’t render until you send a campaign, which makes it hard to see the layout."
"The solution should improve its reporting feature. There should be more transparency around API development. At the moment, the clients are pushing custom API into the mail, so we don't have too much visibility regarding what endpoints they're pushing the data into."
"The training materials need work."
"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."
"Customer service: Not timely, but somewhat effective when on paid plans."
"We had some minor bugs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"MailChimp is affordable."
"I primarily use the free version, but sometimes, for specific client needs, we may have to purchase different versions or packages."
"The solution is the cheapest in the market."
