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.

Perfect tool to use as a small start up!

What differentiates Mailchimp from other similar products?
Mailchimp is really the best for the start up. While it's not a full blown CRM, it's somewhere GREAT to start. I've used it for years and have stopped, then come back to it twice. It easy to approach and very easy to use. I love it.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I like how I feel like I'm in control of using the software every time I click it on. Other CRMs are so confusing to me and make me feel like I have to hire out for someone to manage it. MC makes me feel confident as a user.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I'm not in love with the new drag and drop template creator. It can get a little confusing on the left side navigation bar.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
I would say definitely give it a try. Start building your list and actively sending out updates a few times a month. MC makes it easy to share what's going on with easy photo uploads and design options.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Reliable
- Enables Productivity
- Trustworthy

Puts our brand in the faces of customers emails.

What differentiates Mailchimp from other similar products?
Integration with a vast amount of other 3rd party applications, is an important point of difference, which exist between MailChimp and similar products. The ability for MailChimp to integrate with other applications, has enabled us better execute our marketing plans.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I have began trying my hands on Mailchimps "creative assistant" for a few months now, and I cherish how it is able to generate design ideas, for our email marketing templates. While the designs generated are not always what we seek, it helps us in the area of giving us newer design ideas.
What do you dislike most about this product?
Mailchimps email templates cannot be fully re-engineered to our taste. In most cases, we have either had to design our own templates from scratch or simply do minor customizations, to what MailChimp provides.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
We have found MailChimp to be incredibly valuable. I do not think it provides the best analytical metrics , when compared with other solutions out there though. However, depends on what is being seeked by the user.
Pros
- Reliable
- Unique Features
- Security Protects
- Helps Innovate

Easiest email marketing tool
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Mailchimp from other similar products?
The free version of it makes people use it to its highest extent. When upgrading the contacts - It does expand its features and functionality. The drag and drop feature of Mailchimp makes it the perfect choice.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The drag and drop feature for creating emails along with functionality around editing emails using coding (If one has knowledge) makes creating emails very easy for users. The split testing feature is another favourite thing for me.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There are not many options for one to have templates, you will have to create everything almost yourself.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you want a tool that is super easy to use, Mailchimp is highly recommended.
Pros
