We switched from Mailchimp to Mailmodo to explore interactive emails and direct checkouts. Customer actions in the email helped us scale up faster.
We’re ramping up our email volume with Mailmodo as the platform is intuitive and collaborative.
With the Mailmodo-Zapier-Slack integration, each time a user fills up the AMP feedback form, responses are posted on our Slack channel. We got 6% CTR and 15% open rates.
MailerLite’s email automation is sophisticated to use. Their automation feature is part of every plan, including the free trial. You can use autoresponders to set up marketing emails, like welcome emails. Building automation flows using their drag-and-drop builder is easy because the platform is intuitive. However, if you’re looking to do triggered email marketing, Mailmodo is a complete value for money. It’s a powerful tool for building multistep automation flows and is cost-effective.
With MailerLite’s free plan, you can send 12,000 emails monthly to 1,000 contacts. Only 1 user can sign up for the trial account. Also, key features such as drag-and-drop editor, email automation builder, signup forms, and pop-ups are included in the trial. However, if the contact limit is exceeded, you will have to shell out money and switch to a paid plan.
Yes, Mailmodo is a far more advanced alternative to MailerLite. With Mailmodo, you can send AMP emails that reduce redirections and drop-offs. Connecting your own SMTP is also a huge advantage for any email marketing team. Besides, Mailmodo offers 24/7 email, phone, and chat support.
According to Email Deliverability Report 2022, MailerLite delivered 16.33% of emails to spam folders, and 4.61% of emails got lost. MailerLite’s high spam rates and servers getting blacklisted from time to time have often frustrated subscribers. For a better deliverability rate, you can stick to Mailmodo. We offer help with domain warmup, block spammers, and consult our clients on how to boost their deliverability rates.
Import contact information into Mailmodo to ensure the information you want to maintain from MailerLite will still be available when the migration is complete. List cleansing is an important consideration to do before importing any existing email lists. You can use Mailmodo to import clean lists, and the initial send should go to an engaged list.
