| Pricing | Not published — Starter tier prices render client-side and were not retrievable from the vendor pricing page · free tier: Free forever, no credit card needed; up to 300 emails per day after account approval for sending, and transactional email API/SMTP included | USD $15.00 per month (Starter, vendor-supplied figure published on G2) · free tier: 14-day free trial ("Try it free for 14 days" per vendor homepage); no free plan verified |
| Pricing model | Subscription (volume-based) with pay-as-you-go credit option | Subscription |
| Best for | SMBs, solopreneurs and developers who send moderate email volume to a large list and want marketing, transactional email and a light CRM under one bill — especially GDPR-conscious European buyers and low-frequency senders who benefit from volume-based and no-expiry PAYG pricing. | SMBs and agencies with roughly 500–25,000 contacts that want marketing automation, CRM and email/SMS/WhatsApp messaging in one system and will actually build branching automations rather than simple broadcasts. |
| Avoid if | You depend on same-day sending (approval gate plus suspension reports), need a dedicated IP or hands-on deliverability help without paying Enterprise, want phone support or multiple seats on a small budget, are landing-page-heavy, or require a published contractible price before procurement. | You need frictionless self-service cancellation, predictable refunds, a fully published price at higher contact volumes, guaranteed support SLAs on lower tiers, or only simple newsletter sending. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
