GR (GetResponse)MailChimp
GetResponse have too many mobile and user friendly more professional, sleek looking templates.MailChimp have traditional email template which are error prone..
 GR provide fully autoresponder service with free trial.Mailchimp only provide basic services with free trial.
 Get response provide live chat service for those looking for help and live support.Mailchimp customer support system is very slow and non-friendly.
Depending on your list size, and whether or not it is likely to grow, using Getresponse will usually work out cheaper than Mailchimp (particularly for larger lists).Getresponse is more flexible when it comes to form design. i.e. you can create a wider range of form types.MailChimp is costly for large list size as compare to GR.Mailchimp has standard embed, pop-up or lightbox or choose a form from a variety of pre-designed templates.

Getresponse’s reporting system has an excellent feature which is not present in Mail chimp however, its automatic creation of email able ‘groups’ after a mail-out is sent. After you send out your mailshot, Get response will show you several segments of contacts who took specific actions – you’ll see groups of people who opened your email, did not open your email, clicked your email but did not meet a goal etc. – and you can mail them all again really easily. This is extremely useful for sending quick reminders or follow-up offers to relevant contacts.
