Anyone here have a small business and use Constant Contact?

I have a small, growing business and I was recommended to use their service for email marketing.
Anyone here have any experience with it? I do about 6 or 7 email blasts per year to about 750 contacts now but it is kind of a pain with Mac Mail. For some reason Mac Mail does not like a email going to more than 150 contacts at a time so I have to break up my contact list and its a pain.
Constant Contact is about $50 a month and seems to be able to handle 2500 contacts at that price.
Any experience?

Use Mailchimp and thank me later. I think you get your first 3000 contacts for free. And the interface is way better than Constant Contact.
Here's a good breakdown with charts, graphs and other shite.

The more interesting finding from our study— of the businesses that had used both, 75% of respondents preferred MailChimp over Constant Contact.

I used cc for a non profit group I lead. It's easy to use but I'm sure there are others better for the cost.

We do use it. Email about 1 time a month to email our client DB of about 3000. Im sure there are other options, but if your asking is the type of product worth the money, I would say definitely yes.
Its been interesting to see how many people open, read, receive, remove from list etc. Definitely helped us find gaps in how we were communicating with clients and how to work to fix them.
Money well spent

My wife's company uses Constant Contact. It has been very beneficial. They have a great customer service department to answer any questions.

We used Constant Contact and have switched to Mailchimp. I like it better.

We stopped using constant contact and switched to mail chimp for our youth baseball non-profit.
Like it better and free.
