Comparing Klaviyo to Mailchimp is a little like comparing apples to bananas. Klaviyo is the smarter platform designed for ecommerce marketing; Mailchimp is a legacy email automation service with clunky functionality. While it may be less expensive initially, Mailchimp hits you with hidden fees and add-on costs. With Klaviyo, every plan includes access to the ecommerce tools you need to drive growth.
