The verdict
Klaviyo adds native SMS marketing and transactional email, both of which MailerLite handles only through a separate sister product. It also pairs deeper behavior-driven segmentation with native Shopify/Woo/BigCommerce flows (abandoned cart, revenue attribution) and 350+ integrations, making it the better fit for stores running email and SMS together. The tradeoff is price: it starts at $30/mo.
Full profileMailerLite starts at $12/mo versus Klaviyo's $30, and its free plan allows 2,500 emails/mo against Klaviyo's 500, with A/B testing included on every plan, even free. Both cover drag-and-drop building, automation, segmentation and ecommerce sync. It is the cheaper email-first pick, but lacks native SMS and transactional email, which Klaviyo offers in-product.
