- Lynne Becera | January 2021 | Fact Checked
It seems like a crowded space, but we like 3 of the main marketing automation platforms in market. Their strengths and weaknesses are called out below.
Top 3 options are: Symplify (multi-channel platform, Send email, sms, web push, app push, print, dynamic web, social and voice all from one single platform), MailChimp (Free Trial and free plan includes up to 2,000 contacts, with 10,000 sends per month and a daily limit of 2,000), Marketo (Marketo Engage pricing starts at $895.00 per month).
Let’s take each in turn:
#1 Marketing Automation Platform

We are impressed with Symplify’s multi-channel platform. You can send email, sms, web push, app push, print, dynamic web, social and voice all from one single platform.
You can also build and edit your customer lifecycle journey in real time using customer events and campaigns.

Our Conclusion
They all have pros and cons. Symplify is our top choice because they are a multi-channel platform where you can send email, sms, web push, app push, print, dynamic web, social and voice all from one single platform. MailChimp is a good second choice being an all-in-one Marketing Platform for small business with a smaller feature set, and Marketo is on our last spot due to their higher plan pricing although they have grown into a leader in marketing automation.
All of them monetise users and marketing automation, and in that regard you could start at the beginning of the list and work down to see which one suits you best.
