Good for marketing!

What do you like best? I like that we are able to customize our newsletters, which is what we heavily use MailChimp for. The added designs and ability to use our logo really helps our branding. What do you dislike? I think there are few things I dislike. Perhaps, I would say, the lack of fonts. We use a special font and MailChimp does not carry it. I wish we could upload font files. Recommendations to others considering the product: This is a no brainer. If you are ...

Positive Experience Overall

What do you like best? Mail chimp is very useful for email marketing in that you can save templates, filter out segments you don’t want to receive emails, tag contacts and set requirements so that when they open an email or some other action they become tagged. It’s very user friendly as well. What do you dislike? Mail chimp has some obvious limitations which you would’nt expect for it being as popular as it is. If you rearrange the order of your email sequence, then it will ...

Instant emails sent without you even needing to worry

What do you like best? Our services require emails to be sent to new users, as well as emails to be sent to us AND the user when they submit a new licensing project. I had no idea how to resolve this problem, but our web developers sure did. We've used Mandrill since the get-go, and we love that it's one facet of the business we no longer have to worry about. What do you dislike? We just crossed over our transactional email limit for the first time this month. All of a sudden, we ...

Excellent on-demand tool for transactional email deliverability.

What do you like best? we were able to get started with using the platform very quickly and we were able to integrate with their system within a day, excellent reporting and deliverability for our transactional emails have been great as well. we have planned rolling this out for our additional business units as well. What do you dislike? Might be helpful if there are better training modules for how to best utilize all the features available in the platform. Recommendations to ...

Very friendly platform!

What do you like best? It is very easy to use for a person that doesn't have the knowledge in coding. Especially if you are not so into digital platforms. What do you dislike? Limited options on templates, I wish I could have more predetermined options to build from. Recommendations to others considering the product: So far so good, maybe add more basic templates and enable the ability to embed videos on the actual email template would be awesome! What problems are you ...

Inexpensive Transactional Emails

What do you like best? Mandrill provides an inexpensive transnational email platform. The platform provides a great oversight of delivery, reputation, times of sending, countries to which you have delivered to and what mailbox system they make use of. You can see the content of sent emails, you can't do this using the competitor Sendgrid. What do you dislike? Mandrill now only works through Mailchimp which in my opinion is a movement in the wrong direction, you have to login to ...

Very good, if not expensive, email isp

What do you like best? Being able to use mailchimp templates means we not longer need to code and hold templates locally. Reviewing and resending emails is very easy to view and track. Using sub accounts is a nice way to handle unsubscribes. Webhooks for unsubscribes easy to handle. Not met any scalability issues at all. ISP reputation is very good, good display of reputation to us too. What do you dislike? Automatic unsubscribe link is a little tricky in terms of balancing sub ...

Best solution for email marketing

What do you like best? This is a difficult question, I would say that several things. The price is ok, it´s not the cheapest but it´s not expensive either. I like how friendly is for beginers users. It´s really great how they manage all the IP solutions, and all the different options regarding this feature. What do you dislike? I´m just a beginner user for this software, maybe they should have better tutorials. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have ...
