Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the product and billing.

Mailchimp costs $0 for 2,000 contacts and 10,000 emails/month with ads. To overcome these limitations, you must buy the paid plan starting at $9.99/month. Mailchimp pricing for nonprofits is no respite either. Mailchimp competitors like Mailmodo, on the other hand, offer full-stack email marketing solutions for a more affordable price. If you're a Mailchimp user, consider making the switch today to send interactive emails to your audience. Mailmodo is the best Mailchimp alternative.

Mailchimp has been around for 20+ years and is very customer-driven. However, according to Mailchimp reviews, their emails keep going to spam despite your domain being authenticated, which makes the platform seem unreliable. The Mailchimp alternatives considered reliable are ESPs like Mailmodo with high domain reputation and low spam rates.

According to the Email Deliverability Report 2022, Mailchimp has an 81% inbox placement rate and a 14% spam rate. The spam rate is high enough to cause low email deliverability.

You can avoid emails going to spam with Mailchimp and achieve better email deliverability with competitors to Mailchimp like Mailmodo, which offers dedicated servers, consultation, and help with your domain warm-up.

You can use Moosend for free to send unlimited emails to 1,000 contacts. However, if the contact limit feels restricting, consider using Moosend alternatives like Mailmodo that comes with an affordable pricing plan.

We recommend you to use Moosend if you manage invitations via email marketing. But we don’t recommend the tool for businesses that need advanced automation. Instead, Moosend alternatives like Mailmodo offer custom multistep automation at a more affordable price.

Moosend’s spam rate is high enough to cause low email deliverability. Their users’ emails often end up in spam. You can achieve better email deliverability with Mailmodo's dedicated servers, consultation, and help with your domain warm-up.
