Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Pricing is the best in the market. I am not an expert in email marketing, but the analytics are perfect for me. It is easy to use and set up. The template editor is excellent. Cheap pricing and works well.
  • - It works pretty well even in the free version. - It is simple to use. - The reports provided are simple to understand. - The emails look professional. I love it. - I can see how many subscribers opened my emails and how often the links are used.
  • I started using EmailOctopus to send email to my SaaS customers. It is super user friendly. I have never user one of these email marketing services before and even so I could setup my first campaign in a little time. The templates are just perfect. It is tottaly professional. Everything that you need to use it is easily find in the website.
  • - Free features that are paid in other competitors - Good for Small business - If you need to scale, the price is really good compared to other options - Excellent customer support. I just use the free version and as a newbie, - I had a setup problem my email in the WebHost. The support helps me in a few minutes. Everything is free. It was a real person in the support.
  • I found EmailOctopus when looking for a cheaper alternative to Mailchimp. For now what I need is free, and if I do need to upgrade later it will be less than 1/2 what Mailchimp is. It is very user friendly, I have had no problem importing contacts and setting up/ sending emails, even though I have never used one of these email services before. I love how professional my emails look! I have also been able to easily find answers to all the questions I have had on their site. I love that I can look and see how many of my emails have been opened and how often the links are being used.

Cons

  • I do not have any cons yet. It is working perfectly for me.
  • The interface when you are setting up your email could be better. But it is ok to use.
  • No cons till now. Everything works correctly and It has been easy to use.
  • There are just a few email templates available in the free version.
  • No cons so far, everything has been easy and looks amazing.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I have used Mailchimp for many years. When we launched our platform for camp ground and outdoor adventure parks a few years back I defaulted to using Mailchimp because of my experience with their platform. It has matured a lot over the years but it still remains very easy to use with drag and drop email templates, sequences, and has much stronger contact management capabilities than when I first started with the tool.
  • Mailchimp is easy to set up and add contacts to. The AI and automated templates provided are helpful. Suggestions given about sentences and titles are very useful.
  • Mailchimp is extremely intuitive and easy to use and we've never had a major issue. The email builder is so easy to use and does everything you'd hope it would.
  • Simple to format and send large group emails/updates. Including a branding kit for Church logos and fonts would be great and bulk deletion of uploads would be helpful.
  • I don’t like much right now about Mailchimp. We have tried to contact you via chat and online without a response at all about why not we cannot add photographs to our emails anymore. We used to be able to use that feature.

Cons

  • You do have to pay based on total contacts so even as people unsubscribe you can end up paying for people you can't market to. But you also can't remove them from your list as you need to be able to track their unsubscribe data in case it is questioned in the future.
  • Slightly more suited to American consumers. But easy to adapt for NZ.
  • Some of the audience management functions could be a bit easier to use, especially when you have duplicates who have an incorrect email address and a correct one--it would be great to flag those.
  • If it had a convert to print format feature, I would be hooked! To be able to generate printed church Bulletins from the weekly email would be amazing!!!
  • I don’t like your lack of response. We have tried to reach you via chat and an email.
