What People Say About AWeber Pricing

“One aspect of Aweber’s pricing structure that potential users might like is that all features are available on all plans — unlike some competing products you don’t have to be on more expensive plans to unlock certain functionality.” – Style Factory

“While cheaper than a service like ConvertKit, Aweber is similar in price to ActiveCampaign while being significantly less powerful. ActiveCampaign has one of the most powerful marketing automation features out there.” – SmallBusinessTrends

AWeber is a little on the pricey side, especially for businesses with very small lists (1000 and under). Once you hit the 2500-subscriber mark, costs are more in line with industry averages. The company has no send-based subscription plan, which means if you have a large list but send infrequent emails, there are probably better choices for you.” – Merchant Maverick

“For those who want to get started with as little money as possible, GetResponse is cheaper [than AWeber]. As your needs grow, however, you will need to make a direct comparison involving the plans that offer the features you need to meet your goals.” – Digital.com

“With a reasonable pricing structure based on the number of subscribers, AWeber is well-suited for budget-conscious businesses and entrepreneurs looking for an intuitive and simple way to send targeted emails and build their contact list.” – Software Pundit

  1. This is a great comparison table. Thanks a million. It’s also worth noting, that of all these email marketing options, Mailchimp no longer works with Shopify e-commerce. AWeber and the other alternatives will work and integrate perfectly fine especially with checkout. Would also like to see you compare, Klaviyo, Sendlane, Omnisend and Drip to AWeber too.

    • Hey Ciarán,

      Thanks for that note about Mailchimp + Shopify. That’s valuable info.

      I’ll add those others email marketing tools you mentioned to our list, will try get to them at some stage. We’ll probably need a wider website layout to accommodate them all 😛
