Merchants feel that "Mailchimp Email SMS Marketing" is a mixed bag. Many users appreciate its ease of use, especially for small business owners, and laud the app's integration with platforms like Shopify. However, there are notable concerns about the app's billing practices and customer service quality, which affect the overall experience for several users.

Common Concerns

  • Unfair billing practices and hidden costs

Dean was such a great help in assisting me to get my app sett up. He was very attentive, provided additional resources for me to review, and answered all of my questions

The agent was very helpful unfortunately my issue needed further assistance to resolve but that's no fault of theirs

I had a question about how to upgrade my plan and chatted with Clarisse. She was super helpful and guided me through the process. She is a great asset for your company.

Mailchimp has really gone down hill since they were acquired by Intuit. This app is terrible because it is now spamming my new customers with double-opt-in emails - some customers get those emails every day for a week straight, even though double-opt-in should be deactivated. The app is broken, it HAS BEEN broken for like 2 months, and they still haven't bothered to fix it. This makes me very upset. And I pay a lot for their services. I no longer feel it is worth it.

Mailchimp has been a good service integrating with Shopify. As with any saas integration across two platforms there are always going to have a few issues. But both sides are always quick to rectify. I particularly would like to point out the customer success managers from mailchimp. We've had two stellar ones so far who are high on communication and helping us use all the tools available.

They have many bugs in the last months and the biggest one is when our store was disconnected from they’re servers and we need to wait for more than 48 hours to finish the resync.

Integration stopped working in around mid October. Most of the subscribers result as non-subscribers even if they opted-in.

I have to uninstall and reinstall the app every time to get the contacts to sync even though it shows that the store is connected.

Terrible customer service. Take days to respond to any issue and refuse to help a small business in anyway. Charging me £120 for a month for a service I can’t use and they refuse to help. Avoid and look at other alternatives, perhaps more customer service focussed.

GREAT AT ADVERTISING THEMSELVES _ TERRIBLE FOR ADVERTISING YOUR BRAND. They upcharge you for nothing, and dont do anything that the free shopify tools grant you. Absolute trash of an app and the developers clearly this is their first API.

Mailchimp is easy and simple to use dashboard, no too much complexity. Anyone can get into it and use easily, It makes life easy.

I am older and this integration is beyond my eager skills. I need a live person who can see my screen and walk me through set up and a trial campaign. Not Mailchimp's fault.

Müll - da man sich keinen neuen Account machen kann. Ohne Anmeldung und Account kann man die App auch nicht nutzen, wozu macht man dann so ein Schrott?

I found over recent years the integration with Shopify has improved, but its still far from the level other mail solutions are at. The final straw for writing this review has been trying to pause / deactivate a simple pop up / sign up form. Despite doing this there is still code / script on our site and we are left with a generic sign up form which mailchimp support can not help with. We are advised to hire "an expert" to solve this ! heck we just want to turn off a pop up form and try another one ... well this final straw will be the catalyst to finding another Email solution. Update .. now they want me to update my review .. OK well how is this. After MailChimp told me over and over that this was our issue and to hire an expert to remove the code ... Turns our it was their issue and their Developers identified the problem and removed the code. Their support was unwavering is their response that this was our issue. But we would not give in. Then in the end No Apology.
