Pros & Cons
Mailchimp
Pros
- Reviewers on G2 and Capterra often praise the template library and easy navigation, which help non-technical users send campaigns quickly.
- Large review base, with a 4.5 rating on Capterra from more than 17,000 reviews and 4.3 on G2.
- Standard includes up to 200 automation flows, predictive segments and generative AI tools at a low starting price.
- Premium adds enterprise SSO, unlimited seats and dedicated onboarding for larger teams.
Cons
- Costs rise steeply with list size. Premium starts at 350 USD a month, and reviewers rank pricing as the top complaint.
- New accounts are billed for unsubscribed and unconfirmed contacts, and going over the plan limit triggers overage fees.
- In January 2026 the Free plan was cut to 250 contacts and 500 sends a month, and automations were removed from it.
- Reviewers on G2 and Capterra say support is slow or inconsistent, especially for integration troubleshooting.
- Essentials limits automation flows to four steps.
Moosend
Pros
- Entry price is low: Pro was reported at 9 USD per month for 500 contacts, and annual billing takes 20% off.
- Prebuilt automation recipes include abandoned cart, repeat purchase and loyalty flows driven by website tracking.
- A/B campaigns can test subject line, content or sender, then send the winner to the rest of the list automatically.
- Nonprofits get an extra 25% off on top of the annual discount.
- Capterra reviewers rate it highly overall and often praise the support team.
Cons
- Transactional email, dedicated IPs and SSO are not in Pro and need a custom-priced plan.
- Support is 24/5 email and live chat. The Enterprise tier adds priority support, but there is no 24/7 coverage.
- About 80 native integrations, so less common tools need Zapier or similar connectors.
- Reviewers find the template range limited and the landing pages fairly basic.
- Prices are only in US dollars, and there is no permanent free plan, only a 30-day trial.
