How to read the Emotional Footprint
The Net Emotional Footprint measures high-level user sentiment towards particular product offerings. It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

Best Email Marketing product that is User-Friendly
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Mailchimp from other similar products?
I’ve used Brevo, Sender, and Zoho Campaigns, and I can confidently say that Mailchimp has one of the best email deliverability rates and it consistently gets past spam filters. I also really appreciate the flexibility of its segmentation features when filtering who to send emails to, Zoho and Sender don’t offer that level of control. Another feature I love is the ability to show different content in the same email using conditional merge tags which makes it good for personalization.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Email segmentation is my best feature on Mailchimp, it’s flexible and easy to use. The customer journey builder is also pretty straightforward, with helpful templates to start from. Mailchimp has been around for a long time, and that longevity shows in how stable and familiar the platform feels.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The email templates available under the standard pricing are quite limited. Re-engagement email options should also be more flexible, we need the ability to target contacts based on non-opens from the past 2–3 campaigns. Also, the automated birthday journey has been malfunctioning since around February. Contacts receive birthday emails on wrong dates, and I had to turn it off. Please look into this.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Mailchimp is the best in terms of user-friendliness. It makes you feel in control and is easy to understand, which makes it great for beginners. Plus, the fact is one of the pioneers of email marketing, it must have redefined its features to suit its customers and market preferences.
Pros
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy
