Emailing platform based in Europe and alternative to Mailchimp?

Damien Pochon

Hello,
One of our customers has been using Mailchimp + SugarChimp happily for a few years. However, their legal team is worried about the fact that Mailchimp is US-based and that there is currently no aceptable equivalent to the privacy shield. 

Since Sugar Market would be wayyy overkill, I've looked around but could not find a EU-based solution that has a Sugar connector. Well there is Hubspot but that would be a buit risky. I've looked at Sarbacane, Brevo / Sendibnblue and Mailjet, but they all rely on Zapier wich is 1) US-based and 2) priced per call, so not too predictable in terms of costs. 

Developing an integration is of course possible, but would be hardly profitable for a single small customer. Especially including the maintenance. 

What do your small/medium customers use for basic email campaigns? 

Best regards,

Damien

    Hi Damien,

    We had the same issues for our customers in the uk so we created gocampaign powered by mautic, it's a email marketing suite completely hosted within the UK our enablecloud. Https://status.enable.services

    You can find more information here https://www.gocampaign.co.uk

    If you need anything or would like a demo,  please let me know, the pricing is on the website but starts at £200 per month up to 10,000 contacts inclusive of the full sugar integration all the way down to custom field mapping etc.

    Thanks

    Hello Joe,

    Thank you for your contribution. I had played with Mautic 5-6 years ago. The solution was interesting but still very much in infancy, including on the User Experience side. I also remember a wannabe Marketing Automation solution which would be overkill for the needs of that project although the cost doesn't feel wholly excessive. 

    What is the current status of the project? The fact that it would be hosted in the UK (ie outside of the EU) my be a deterrent. 

    Best regards,
    Damien

    • The solution has come on leaps and bounds over the last 3 years since being acquired by Acquia ( they also own drupal) we have been supporting the opensource branch for about 6 years and with the new email builder etc it is really a contender. We have also built a robust integration into sugar to allow sugar users to see all mautic activity at a person record so you can report in sugar, drive sugar automations and have sugar dashboards if you like.
