MailerLite
MailerLite is fantastic for anyone who is looking to send emails to a lot of people and gather data and analytics of who has read the email, clicked on links, etc. It works well on a company base as well as an individual contractor base.

SendinBlue is great for simple email marketing, especially for small businesses. It's very easy to get the account setup and create an email compared to other services like MailChimp. It's also very user-friendly for those who may not be technically savvy. If you have a much larger scale email list or regularly import lists from outside SendinBlue, then you may want to look elsewhere. SendinBlue is great if you stay within the system, but can cause trouble if you import email lists outside of the system.

- Fast newsletter delivery to a large subscriber base
- Fair pricing allows small companies to get use of the features with a small subscriber base and then scale up as their subscriber base grows.
- APIs allow you to fully automate the process of generating and delivering newsletters. My web staff updates the website information, and sends the newsletter from my website back end. They do not ever even have to log in to SendinBlue. This creates a level of simplicity that prevents errors.

Cons
MailerLite
- Although they have started working with popular third-party tools there is major room for improvement. Due to them not being on the list of integrated tools for some very well known CRM's it has been difficult to fully use MailerLite for all our online email management systems.
- They have a great selection of landing page templates that work well for new business start-ups but unfortunately they have yet to be added to in the two years since I switched over. This is an area I hope they plan to improve, whether it be only available on pro plans, it's just time to add to that library.
- The other major part I hope Mailerlite can improve is the option to upload and store PDF's and videos instead of having to link to outside sources.

- Would like to have emails sent directly from our server (without extra charge). We noticed recently emails now come from sendinblue.com vs. a server with a series of numbers so this is a definite improvement!
- Would like to see our actual subscriber base number (total minus blacklist)
- Was initially difficult to figure out how to create newsletter signup to match the layout of our website but eventually our developer figured out a workaround.
- Sometimes when you click on the editing box, you end up going out to the hyperlink specified instead of edit box, this is sometimes annoying.

I am a web designer and systems admin. I have not found anything with this system that was hard to use. Other systems make it hard to do simple tasks and is very limiting. SendinBlue doesn't limit you.

These people helped me identify errors when setting up DKIM and were more than helpful in trying to diagnose low open rates with a few campaigns identifying where improvement can be made and how to more effectively manage contact lists. The support is excellent.

If you follow all the steps of the setup process they give you, any one can set this up in about 1 - 2 hours.

Alternatives Considered
MailerLite
Compared to products like Constant Contact, MailerLite is much more cost appropriate, and is easier to use. The only downside is that Constant Contact has some additional functionality for live events that MailerLite doesn't offer, like text to join, but unless you are speaking at or holding live events often the added cost for Constant Contact doesn't make sense for startups or small businesses.

Sendinblue advertises itself as being better than Mailchimp, which if you think about it is awful advertising campaign, putting one company down to raise another. But despite this, Mailchimp actually lets people use their account for good whereas Sendinblue seems to be doing the opposite. Plus Mailchimp is easier to use and navigate around, and doesn't take a long time to set up. The only downside is that you can't have unlimited contacts which is why we changed to Sendinblue.

They have multiple options for upgrading bigger senders or if you need more emails sent in a month.

Return on Investment
MailerLite
- While email is a great way to connect with our clients, the sharable pdf brochures have been a great source of traffic to our website. It has also been a great conversation starter with potential clients who are tired of emails.
- There are over 12 million WhatsApp users in Kenya, most of our clients and prospects, are more willing to connect us via WhatsApp than by email. The .PDF brochures has become one of our biggest marketing assets as we can keep them updated about our projects in a more social way. The fact that the brochures are more shareable is a big bonus. It'll be good to be able to track clicks, which currently can't be done as it's stared as a draft in MailerLite.

- Deliverability: SIB protects their sending IP and this shows with the rate of delivery. Junk senders are cautioned, this is not the solution for you.
- Simplicity: Cut the time it takes to get professional email campaigns out to your audience. Less time = less labor expense.
- All in one solution allows you to capture and maintain both SMTP and SMS under one program and this has made segmentation and campaigning less annoying and tedious.
