What I like
Best-in-class segmentation and ecommerce automations.
Best for
Stores that want the deepest ecommerce data.
Klaviyo is the powerhouse for data-driven Shopify stores, with best-in-class segmentation, deep store integration and revenue-focused reporting. It's pricier and more advanced than Omnisend, but for a store serious about maximising email and SMS revenue through precise targeting, Klaviyo is the leading choice. It's a common pick among shopify stores comparing their choices.

A generous free plan and a genuinely easy editor.
Best for
Stores wanting the best value and simplicity.
MailerLite is ideal for stores that want lovely emails and simple automations at a great price, with a generous free plan and an editor that's a joy to use. It connects to Shopify for core automations, and while it's less ecommerce-specialised than Omnisend, its value and ease make it a favourite for smaller stores. It's a common pick among shopify stores comparing their choices.

What I like
Pay by emails sent, not list size, plus SMS.
Best for
Stores wanting email + SMS billed by send.
That focus makes it a natural fit for many shopify stores. Brevo bills by emails sent rather than subscribers, which can be far cheaper for stores with a large list emailed periodically. It bundles email, SMS, automation and basic CRM with Shopify integration, making it a flexible, budget-friendly alternative for multi-channel ecommerce marketing.

What I like
Well-known, with ecommerce automations and broad features.
Best for
Stores wanting a familiar all-rounder.
Mailchimp is the familiar option with ecommerce automations, product recommendations, landing pages and a broad feature set, and it reconnects with Shopify. Pricing can climb as your list grows, so weigh it against value picks, but as a recognisable, capable all-rounder it remains a reasonable choice for stores. For a shopify stores setup, it's well worth a closer look.
Drip

What I like
Purpose-built ecommerce email + SMS with strong segmentation.
Best for
Stores wanting ecommerce-first automation.
Drip is built specifically for ecommerce, with powerful behaviour-based automations, rich segmentation and revenue-focused reporting across email and SMS. For a Shopify store that wants Omnisend-style ecommerce focus with deep automation and targeting, Drip is a strong, sales-driven alternative. For shopify stores, it's one of the stronger options on this shortlist.
Sender

What I like
A generous free tier with automation and SMS.
Best for
Budget-conscious stores wanting email + SMS.
That focus makes it a natural fit for many shopify stores. Sender delivers capable email and SMS marketing with a generous free plan and low-cost paid tiers, plus ecommerce automations like abandoned cart. For a small or growing Shopify store watching costs that still wants real, effective campaigns, Sender's value makes it a compelling alternative.
What matters for a Shopify store
For a Shopify store, email and SMS are a revenue channel, not a newsletter — so judge each tool on how well it turns store data into automated sales. The key questions: how deeply does it sync Shopify orders, products and customers; how good are the pre-built flows (welcome, abandoned cart, browse abandonment, post-purchase, win-back); does it show revenue per email so you can prove ROI; and does the price scale sensibly as your list grows? A tool that automates the big flows well will out-earn a cheaper one you never fully set up.
