The verdict

Campaign Monitor logo Campaign Monitor
Best for the cheapest paid entry and Shopify ecommerce

Campaign Monitor starts at $11/mo for 500 contacts, below GetResponse's $19 entry, and ships a native Shopify integration for ecommerce senders. Both cover drag-and-drop building, automation, A/B testing, and SMS. There is no free tier here, so it suits teams ready to pay from day one.

GetResponse logo GetResponse
Best for starting free and a broad integration catalog

GetResponse offers a free plan for up to 500 contacts (2,500 newsletters/mo) where Campaign Monitor has none, so teams can launch without paying. It lists 170+ native integrations and 200+ templates. Its paid entry is $19/mo for 1,000 contacts, higher than Campaign Monitor's $11, but covers a larger list.
