Overview

Mailchimp remains the most recognizable name in small-business email, pairing an approachable campaign builder with templates, landing pages and light automation. It shines for straightforward newsletters and product announcements where ease matters more than sophistication. Costs scale with audience size — including unsubscribed contacts — and its automation depth trails ActiveCampaign, so senders with complex journeys tend to migrate once their flows mature.
