Frequently asked questions
Mailmodo is a better alternative to Sendgrid because it provides a wide range of IPs and email authentication for a high deliverability rate. Mailmodo offers far better deliverability as your emails are authenticated and you get expert assistance to warmup your domain. You also receive recommendations to improve your email health to boost your inbox placement rate.
We recommend using Sendgrid if you have a massive budget and a limited email requirement. But we don’t recommend the tool for businesses with a small budget that need advanced automation with a larger email list. They offer basic automation, but flexible and sophisticated automation workflows are missing. Instead, Sendgrid alternatives like Mailmodo offer custom multistep automation at a more affordable price.
Due to email deliverability management via domain warmup, email list cleaning, and detailed deliverability reports, email marketers prefer Mailmodo above Sendgrid. Mailmodo also provides email deliverability experts for constant support to help you land in your users’ inboxes.
You can create an account for free to try Campaign Monitor and send an email campaign to five contacts. If you exceed the contact limit, you will have to buy the paid plan starting from $9/month, where you can send emails to 500 contacts. For a more affordable alternative, you can consider using Mailmodo.
Campaign Monitor is not HIPAA compliant. Although they’ve signed a Business Associate Agreement (BAA), Campaign Monitor won't allow you to utilize their service to send emails containing Protected Health Information (PHI). If you’re looking for a HIPAA compliant ESP, consider using Mailmodo.
Subscribers have frequently expressed frustration with Campaign Monitor for its high spam rates and occasionally blocked servers. Use Mailmodo if you want a higher deliverability rate. We assist clients with domain warming, stop spammers, and provide advice on increasing deliverability rates.
