Considered Both Products
Attentive
Chose Attentive Mobile
Attentive Mobile is much easier to use and easier to pull performance metric reports. I wish it was a bit easier to edit pop-ups and know what the total audience number is when you create a segment.
Klaviyo
Chose Klaviyo
We started our SMS program via Klaviyo and switched to Attentive. Attentive is definitely superior to Klaviyo in SMS marketing and their overall BRB strategy. Their SMS program is far more robust and has the capability to integrate with Zendesk. They also designate account reps …
Chose Klaviyo
I haven't used Mailchimp in years so the platform and offerings may be more competitive with Klaviyo now. However, I do believe that Klaviyo offers better integrations, reporting, WYSIWYG editor, and segmentations than Mailchimp. Attentive was great, but it was really expensive …
Chose Klaviyo
platforms.Attentive is great if you want to engage with your customers via SMS and other mobile messaging channels. The targeting and segmentation capabilities are top-notch, which makes it easy to create personalized campaigns that resonate with your audience. They also have …
Chose Klaviyo
Mailchimp is super outdated, and for a while there they lost their integration with Shopify. Attentive started out with only being a SMS platform, not email. So because of that, we did not want to migrate everything over to Attentive once they launched email since everything …
Chose Klaviyo
As I explained, it was superior to Mailchimp for sure. Attentive had more SMS features, but Klaviyo does what I need for SMS, and the fact that it has email & SMS in a single platform, with the ability to create campaigns and flows that use both, makes it a win.
Chose Klaviyo
At the time we used Attentive, Klaviyo did not have an SMS product. Attentive was very difficult to use, and provided little to no detailed reporting/analytics. It was very expensive, and had no integration with our email customers. They only provided us a shared short code, …
Chose Klaviyo
Klaviyo simply has more features, better integrations and better a/b testing and reporting. Klaviyo is the dominant market player and it’s hard to run an e-commerce business if you don’t have a tool at Klaviyo’s level. The other tools also were a bit harder to navigate as well …
Chose Klaviyo
Klaviyo compares favorably to other similar products but really stands out when looking at specific integrations. If you're running Shopify then Klaviyo makes too much sense when deciding on a CRM system. It's literally built to work with the Shopify platform and makes life …
Chose Klaviyo
I’ve been using it for a while, so I haven’t evaluated other opportunities.
Chose Klaviyo
Klaviyo is the #1 email platform of choice for ecommerce. It out ranks every competitor. It is worth paying a little extra because you know you are providing your customers with the best experience and equipping your business for success. Email should be something you invest in …
Chose Klaviyo
The comparison of Mailchimp to Klaviyo is that Mailchimp is a very simple email platform that is good for small businesses that are just getting started, while Klaviyo is a more in-depth email marketing platform that is great for businesses looking to grow and succeed in email …
Chose Klaviyo
N/A - we have only leveraged Klayvio.
Chose Klaviyo
We have used various other platforms besides Klaviyo, but Klaviyo is really the only one, in my experience, that has it all. Almost anything you need to do in order to maximize the customer experience, revenue, and customer participation with whatever the brand puts out, …
Chose Klaviyo
Klaviyo is the clear winner amongst its competitors, and it's not close.
Chose Klaviyo
Klaviyo has it all - a lot of the other platforms that I have used do not have all of the following: competent email and SMS sending, easy-to-navigate flow builders, accurate revenue and general metric reporting, and representatives who care and reach out to make sure we are …

Klaviyo is a leader in the space, but I might recommend it to a colleague for its price point. There are other options that are more affordable and provide most of the tools Klaviyo offers. I also think it can be complicated to use for a new user.

  • Needs more visible critical notifications as we once exceeded our monthly email limit right during the Black Friday campaign. The notification was not visible enough for us to catch it on time, as a result, some emails scheduled to be sent over the weekend were never sent
  • Better library of dynamic values available for use inside emails

Klaviyo is simply a great solution for e-com email marketing & customer relationship management:
  1. User journey visibility: We can see our clients' customers on their individual user journeys (open email, site visits) to better understand and accommodate your customers.
  2. Flow automation: Creating automated emails that follow up with new leads, those who abandoned carts, purchased.
  3. Email design: So easy to use, and more friendly than some other visual builders that we've used.
  4. Metrics visibility: We can see our clients' metrics very easily and adjust efforts accordingly.

Usability

Good usability and it is easy to train new employees on the platform since it is so intuitive. Love playing around with the segmentation tools and seeing how it affects audience size for deployments. Overall, a great UI experience.

Klaviyo
The only reason why I did not give it a 10/10 is that it cannot distinguish purchases that came through subscription recharges instead of purchases that were driven directly by email sends. Other than that, the automation qualities, design features, and segmentation options make this an incredible email platform, and I am very happy with it

Fast and easy to communicate with. I wish we went over more insights and analytics on our monthly calls with our account manger. This would really give us the push that we need in order to best utilize the platform as a whole.

Their support is always quick and we have recurring meetings with our advisor. they were great when we first started at walking us through the platform and helping us understand how to do the overall setup. They also have a wide variety of articles that cover must issues in a very clear manner that will get you out of a predicament really fast.

The platform will help you increase revenue as long as you use the tools it provides. Don't be scared to ask questions, the support team will help you get to the next level

While ManyChat is specific to Facebook Messenger, my experience in their platform made it very easy to hit the ground running with Attentive Mobile. With the policy changes in the Messenger world, we have mostly abandoned that and moved to SMS for a direct line to customers. Attentive Mobile has much stronger ROAS with SMS than ManyChat had with Facebook Messenger.

Klaviyo's ability to really tackle the entire marketing contact ecosystem on one platform is what really won us over. The price for everything was competitive, not necessarily the cheapest but competitive, and the ability to see that data flow from every interaction was what was crucial to us. Additionally, Klaviyo is the core of our B2C business. We were not focused on anything other than how we interact with customers directly, and Klaviyo was a direct win for us. The one negative is Klaviyo's ability to work with our B2B side of our business, because it doesn't integrate with platforms like HubSpot. That is a massive downside, but the upside justified the investment.

Return on Investment
Attentive
  • We have increased incremental income by using the AI Pro audience targeting
  • We have seen a reduction in our sending cost due to proper targeting of our engaged customers also by using AI Pro's data
  • By implementing retargeting campaigns, we have also been able to increase engagement on campaigns

Klaviyo
  • Klaviyo brought our email channel to the top performing channel over Paid Ads several times (according to G Analytics), before Klaviyo Paid Ads were always top and the email channel struggled to even stay in 2nd place.
  • Klaviyo did cost quite a bit more than our old email platform but the ROI was much higher so it paid for itself.
  • Klaviyo implemented tools that allowed us to have a higher customer satisfaction with things like letting customers choose to receive less emails instead of unsubscribing.
