Lyris vs Mailchimp vs others

I currently use Lyris for my email marketing but today I cam accross a company called mailchimp. Their site looks kicka$$ but that means nothing if they aren't good qauility.

The lyris fees are killing me and mail chimp is about half.

Does anybody have experience with mailchimp? Or another alternative to lyris?

 

it is best to sign up for a trial.. and test it out.. mailchimp has good reputation.. i do not have first hand experience with them.. then there are tons of email marketing providers.. just to name a few:

aWeber, iContact, Constant Contact, Mail Foundry, MailFoundry, Cloudmark,
ConstantContact, Vertical Response, VerticalResponse, Get Response,
GetResponse, Campaigner, Stream Send, StreamSend, Exact Target, ExactTarget,
Benchmark Email, BenchmarkEmail, Mail Chimp, MailChimp, my Emma, MyEmma,
interspire, Imnica Mail, ImnicaMail, informz, infusionsoft, m4internet,
Listrak, FuseMail, Silverpop, jango mail, jangomail, elite email, eliteemail,
majon, bronto, net atlantic, netatlantic, data depot, datadepot, Alterian,
email point, Route72, GoLeads, Cheetah Mail, CheetahMail

 

Thanks for the insight. Do you know of any sites that review all these companies?

 

I like mailchimp a lot. They have a great backend. They are free for small lists and not that expensive compared to other companies.

 

aWeber seems to be the most popular with mailing lists for affiliate products and the like. However the service MailChimp offers is extraordinary, if you have the extra money to sign up for them I would highly recommend it.

 

Top ten reviews did a comparison of 15 email services, including Mailchimp.

-- JangoMail
-- Boomerang
-- GetResponse
-- ContactPro
-- iContact
-- Benchmark
-- Campaigner
-- Pinpointe
-- Constant Contact
-- Mad Mimi
-- GraphicMail
-- Vertical Response
-- MailChimp
-- Stream Send

I can't post live links? Weird. You can find the comparison if you google: top ten review email marketing services review

 

NONONONO.

Mailchimp = Not for marketers.

Check the Terms of service.
I got banned. (for nothing).

Aweber is number 1. In all aspects.

 

I tried mailchimp once and have no idea what it's about.

I think it's for newsletter only, not for marketing?

 

Lyris is very good, however, i think it's expensive.

Mailchimp as some interesting festures and it's an online aplication - But i honestly recommend you E-goi, it's an online Multichanel Marketing Platform - That has great email marketing features and you can interact with diferent channels - Check out www.e-goi.com

 

You could also look at CRM apps as they also have email marketing features

 

I would suggest you can check for email-m.com - SAAS Web Based Email Marketing Service Provider.Its email marketing software features are good and it has reliable pricing and planning.

but anyways, aweber is probably easiest pick to do. so many IM people use it.
