An SMPT plugin has nothing to do with emails going to SPAM or not. It's the web host's built-in mail service (That you set up in cPanel) that causes that problem because many, many of them are blacklisted because of scammers using their services.
But if your host is OK and emails go to EVERYONE's inbox OK (not just yours ... try a different test email) ... then it is advised that you DO use an SMPT plugin. I recommend "WP Email SMPT" (free). My host is also OK as they have a "guaranteed to the inbox" mail service and I use WP Email SMPT like many others who use their web host's mail service.
So if you have no problems with emails going to people's inboxes, don't waste your money on Mail Chimp. You can use the free Woocommerce Lite Abandoned Cart plugin ... and for Newsletters and Promotional emails, I recommend the free "Mail Poet 3". It can also now send some special Woocommerce emails, like "Welcome" emails, etc. But I don't use those as I have another plugin that handles that. (**See below)
I myself use WP Email SMPT, Mail Poet 3, and **Woocommerce Follow Up Emails (not free). Follow Up Emails also handles Abandoned Carts. Those 3 plugins do everything Mail Chimp does, for almost free.

He could try it, but he should be aware that It's had a long history of problems and according to recent threads, still does for some people. My main problem with it when I used to use it for Original Plugin stores were long delays in sending emails.
If he typed "Abandoned Cart" into the search box above, he could also find additional "real life" info from the people mentioned above who have had problems with it.
If he was using the Original Plugin, he would have no choice but to use it, but seeing as he's using Woocommerce, I'd advise him to use the free Abandoned Cart Lite for Woocommerce, which has not had any problems at all ... https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-abandoned-cart/
At least I never had a problem with it. I don't use it anymore as I now use Woo Follow Up Emails (paid version).
Basically, from past experience with both the free Alidropship one and the free dedicated Woocommerce Lite one, I'd advise going with the Woo one. But that's just my personal opinion. He could (and should) try both and make his own decision.

I used WP Email SMPT in the past. It was working fine for sometime. Suddenly it was showing errors and mails including test mails were not sent. I tried to fix it but it look like it just need an upgrade to the paid version. Now I am using Post SMTP plugin. The plugin has connectivity test during setup, so the user will know if there is a connectivity issue. A Fallback option that use another SMTP service if mail fail. It also have mail Logging. The plugin log all outgoing email from the site. I used another plugin for this, I removed it, minus one plugin. It also have a Chrome extension that will notify the user if an email fail. So far this is the best SMTP plugin I am using. It don't have a paid version (premium) so everything is there.

Actually, I also use Abandoned Cart with Alidropshipwoo, I do notice a slight delay in emails though. But apart from that it works fine. But will try other alternative if it fumbles.

Same here, when I used it with the Original plugin, but Woo doesn't have that problem. It's really only a small issue, but still big enough to tip the scales in Woo Lites favour. I remember saying on another thread a couple of years ago on the ADS Abandoned Cart, that I love all the Alidropship add-ons except the Abandoned cart one. That's grown to two now. I also hate the Shipping plugin. LOL (Got a cheap licence for the Shipping plugin for U.S$10 if anyone wants it)
But at the end of the day, choosing which plugin to use is a personal choice by trying them all, I guess.
