Considered Both Products
Mad Mimi
Chose Mad Mimi
Mad Mimi has way less clutter, a much simpler interface, and I just enjoy it a lot more.
Chose Mad Mimi
Mad Mimi is not as complex to use for preparing emails as some competitors like MailChimp. Mad Mimi has a lot of integration for third-party apps. Unlike MailChimp, Mad Mimi is more suitable for our e-marketing strategy. Mad Mimi does not offer free trial whereas MailChimp does …
Chose Mad Mimi
Constant Contact is the Goliath of the industry and to us, it was unnecessarily complex and expensive. We chose Mad Mimi, after looking at several other new offerings and we've been extremely satisfied with our choice of Mad Mimi.
Chose Mad Mimi
I've chosen Mad Mimi for all the reasons stated previously. It's easy to use, free (for now); has an embeddable webform, list segmentation, mobile optimization, etc. On the other hand, I'm just this close to moving to MailChimp which has more sophisticated features and built-in …
Chose Mad Mimi
When I started using Mad Mimi several years ago, it offered a decent feature set at a lower price. For my business, I switched to AWeber first and then to ActiveCampaign for more advanced e-commerce integrations. For my trade association, I recently moved to MailChimp because …
Chose Mad Mimi
Mad Mimi was the first one that we found and we liked it "out of the box." We have not had any need to look for anything else. It has always been able to handle our needs and been easy to use. We will continue to use it until we exceed its capabilities.
Chose Mad Mimi
Mad Mimi was easier to use to keep readers engaged versus using the apps available on the blog site.
Chose Mad Mimi
I don't have any valuable information for this question. I've never used another platform and I don't remember the research I did over a year ago.
Chose Mad Mimi
Mad Mimi is superior to most ESPs that I've used, although it lacks in terms of a learning library, which includes best practices, strategy, expectations, and integration. MailChimp may be a better option for those who require more options, more integration, or more information …
Stripo
Chose Stripo
I like Stripo the most because it feels marketing-first. Almost like the Canva for marketing teams that are not email experts, but need to own and deliver the email marketing part of their campaign themselves. It is a great tool for teams that need to deliver a large volume of …
Chose Stripo
Stripo has more customizable features than constant contact because it allows your design to be more in depth. The exporting in Stripo is also way easier because it gives you a variety of options such as extracting the html, exporting as an outlook file, or directly exporting …
Chose Stripo
Stripo is much more dynamic, and it makes it easier to keep our brand styles consistent.

User Testimonials
Mad MimiStripo
Likelihood to Recommend
It's ideal for the new to email campaign/SMB user as they take great pains to ensure your campaign is ready for success. It's also ideal for those who are used to using the 'Goliaths' of email campaigns as the difference is night and day, in my opinion. Mad Mimi does exactly what we needed done to engage just the right audience with proven, scalable results. It's great software, but it's also the value of the team at Mad Mimi that one gets as a customer.

Stripo is well suited for easy email creation because of the tools it offers when designing such as saving designs and getting specific with colors. Stripo is less appropriate for situations where you want to customize the email after it has already gone out, as it cannot connect directly to be sent with a CRM.

Pros
  • Very easy to upload pictures and drop them into an email I am creating.
  • Easy to create links within emails to web hosted documents or websites or videos.
  • Easy to see who has read what, who has engaged with what emails, who has unsubscribed, so I know exactly how to follow up with people.
  • Easy to upload new contacts, in a batch or one at a time.

Cons
  • The reporting features are pretty basic. I often feel like I need to switch email providers in order to excel ahead of competition.
  • The drag and drop tool is easy to use but very limited. It's really difficult to be creative with columns and content.
  • The entire tool itself is pretty basic. Not wow'd by any features.

Pretty simple, I know I'm getting what I pay for and a little more. Although simple and easy for the new user; a more seasoned marketer can still get the most from MadMimi. Especially if the primary purpose is to generate strong brand loyalty with effective communication that integrates your various outlets: MadMimi makes it easy for your customer to pick-up what the business owner wants to relay.

Mad Mimi is not as complex to use for preparing emails as some competitors like Mailchimp. Mad Mimi has a lot of integration for third-party apps. Unlike Mailchimp, Mad Mimi is more suitable for our e-marketing strategy. Mad Mimi does not offer free trial whereas Mailchimp does offer a test service for 1000 emails. Mailchimp has more functionalities, for instance, the A/B testing which is lacking in Mad Mimi but is very effective in Mailchimp. The email template from Mad Mimi is not as responsive as the one of Mailchimp but when it comes to overall usage, Mad Mimi can do basically what Mailchimp can do. Mailchimp has more functionality in autoresponder usage than Mad Mimi. We chose Mad Mimi because it is cheaper.

Return on Investment
  • I've spent 3 years creating blog posts, and it is only now encompassing the breath that allows me to draw upon this pieces as a reusable resource, but now this is happening.
  • I preferred the Mad Mimi platform to Mail Chimp, and I suspect it continues to offer advantages. I felt Mad Mimi did themselves a disservice by failing to support their free subscriber service to the same extent that Mail Chimp does. When one's mail list gets sufficiently large, then it does pay to pay them, but not in the context I was using it.
  • It seems that Mad Mimi is targeting direct marketing purposes, as this is a use where ROI is more easily measured.
