Overall Satisfaction with Mailchimp
We use Mailchimp to reach our prospects, current clients, and customers. We are B2B and B2C, and as a result, have unique campaigns for each group. That being said, we use Mailchimp to send holiday emails, notifications of changes to our business, offers, as well as news/media releases. Mailchimp helps us to keep our unique contact groups structured, maintained, and managed. This is a great option for small businesses, or entrepreneurs just starting out-and has the flexibility for scaling. We like [its] templates, and, the ability to customize our own email layouts, headers, and more.

Mailchimp has an affordable, tiered pricing structure. Their UI, while not as strong as some of their competitors, is good enough to get the job done. With tech-savvy team members, newsletters and emails can easily be customized to offer consistent branding for any form of communication.

We enjoy using Mailchimp, because it allows us to manage our contact list, in a safe and secure way. Our lists, [oftentimes,] change depending on our campaigns. With Mailchimp, we can easily make changes, create new lists, and send professional emails without limits. This is important, especially during times when we need to communicate urgently, and precisely. Mailchimp solves all of these problems with their software and more.
We've had the best success using Mailchimp to provide informational emails. Specifically, if we are offering a service, making an announcement on a newsworthy event regarding our business or its members, we tend to get positive and favorable responses. Our engagement rates may vary, but the quality of emails that we send out, [allows] us to remain in contact with key stakeholders and strategic partners.
