Mailchimp
Email marketing platform with AI-written campaigns, automations, audience segments, and ecommerce reporting.
MarketingFreemium
Email, SMS, WhatsApp, and chat marketing platform priced by send volume rather than contacts.
Overview
Brevo, formerly Sendinblue, is a multichannel marketing platform with email campaigns, SMS and WhatsApp messaging, marketing automation, transactional email, a free CRM, live chat, and meeting scheduling. Its AI assistant writes subject lines and email content, suggests send times, and can summarise campaign performance. Small businesses in Europe and North America use it because pricing is based on emails sent rather than contacts stored, which suits businesses with large but low-frequency lists. A local shop can store its full customer base for free, send a monthly promotion, and use the included CRM for follow-ups. It integrates with Shopify, WooCommerce, WordPress, PrestaShop, Zapier, Google Analytics, and Stripe. The Starter plan removes daily limits but caps contacts at lower volumes, and automation beyond simple workflows requires the Standard plan.
