Mautic Open Source vs. Webmecanik Automation: The Choice of Expertise and Sovereignty

The Backbone of Automation

Mautic is an essential name in the Marketing Automation universe. As the only major Open Source and royalty-free solution, it represents a powerful alternative to American giants like Hubspot, Marketo, Pardot, or Eloqua.

At Webmecanik, we chose Mautic. We are the major contributor of this Open Source project and have built, around this recognized technical foundation, a complete, robust SaaS (Software as a Service) solution specifically tailored to the needs of European businesses: Webmecanik Automation.

So, why should a Mautic Open Source user, or an agency looking to integrate Mautic, turn to Webmecanik Automation? The answer lies in a few words: Peace of mind, Performance, and Sovereignty.

Data sovereignty and GDPR compliance: our fundamental difference

This is one of our biggest strengths, and often the decisive factor for mid-to-large-sized companies (ETI/Key Accounts):

  • The Open Source challenge: with Mautic Open Source, the responsibility for hosting and managing your data rests with you. While this freedom is appreciated, it comes with constraints: maintenance costs, security, and above all, the obligation to ensure GDPR compliance.

  • The Webmecanik advantage: by choosing Webmecanik Automation, you benefit from hosting exclusively on European servers (France). Unlike American solutions (whose data is subject to the Patriot Act) or even European solutions hosting on an American provider (AWS, Azure), we guarantee you uncompromising data sovereignty. This ensures complete legal tranquility and is a key factor of trust for your clients.

From raw tool to turnkey solution: local support and expertise

Mautic Open Source relies on a community of developers (where our Webmecanik team is highly active). This is a strength, but not a guarantee of immediate and dedicated support:

  • The demand for installation and maintenance: installing, configuring, and maintaining Mautic requires significant technical skills. Updates and bug fixes are your responsibility.

  • The power of Webmecanik Automation: we handle everything.

    • Deployment in minutes: our platform allows for the deployment of operational Mautic instances in minutes.

    • Support & Expertise: our team, based in Europe, offers you reactive technical support and recognized business expertise. Every client benefits from a dedicated Account Manager and an in-house development team.

    • Training and skill development: we train you in the best practices of lead generation and nurturing to ensure the success of your campaigns.

Integration and controlled costs: an All-in-One offer

Sending emails, SMS, or web notifications often requires integrating costly third-party services with Mautic Open Source:

  • Savings on features: our offering natively integrates crucial services: email integration is unlimited at no extra cost. You maintain control over your budget with no surprises related to adding third-party software bricks essential for B2B marketing automation.

  • Simplicity for Agencies (via myWebmecanik):

    • myWebmecanik is your control panel. It allows agencies to easily deploy, manage, and monitor multiple Mautic instances for their clients.

    • Centralized management: billing, usage statistics, single sign on, and contact data management are centralized. It is the perfect tool for structuring a high-performing marketing automation agency offering.

Webmecanik, your reliable technical partner for digital performance

Mautic is an excellent engine, but Webmecanik is the expert driver who ensures you reach your destination (more qualified leads, improved customer relationships).

Whether you are an SME/ETI looking for a complete, easy-to-use, and sovereign Marketing Automation solution or an agency looking to industrialize your Mautic offering for your clients, Webmecanik is the answer.

Our Promise: The excellence of Open Source, the power of a professional SaaS solution, and the security of European hosting.
