- bprater 15y agoSure, but how many offer a simple API for flinging email programmatically?
- MrMike 15y agoThat's the only thing Sendgrid does. And, they do it quite well.
- vailripper 15y agoSendGrid, Postmarkapp, amazon email service....all of them do.
- rorrr 15y agoI think almost all of them.
- mtrimpe 15y agoAdd CritSend to that list. I'm using it and am quite happy with it.
- randomtask 15y agoI should have qualified that by saying that there were a lack of services that suited our particular needs. We ended up concluding pretty quickly that for our purposes services like Mailchimp would have been prohibitively expensive. Also, we weren't particularly interested in running a campaign oriented service, which seem to be what Mailchimp and most of the services on your list are for. I don't remember seeing Sendgrid though. That might be what we were looking for, a simple API for sending mails that aren't tied to campaigns, but which provide the template niceness of services like Mailchimp.
- duck 15y agoMailChimp also provides a great API and they even have an extended API (http://apidocs.mailchimp.com/sts/1.0/ http://apidocs.mailchimp.com/sts/1.0/) on top of Amazon SES that doesn't cost you anything extra (you just pay for SES).
