We switched to Sendy too, because MailChimp's pricing leaves a lot to be desired. We have a list of about 10k subscribers, and we only send a campaign every 2-3 months. I have no idea why this is priced way higher than someone with 1k subscribers would sends 4 campaigns a month.
Sendy has worked perfectly for us. The UI could do with a lot of love, but its functionally fine.
- epa 12y agoThink of a bank - you may pay to have a business bank account. An account with $10K that does 1 transaction every 2-3 months, vs An account with $1K that does 4 transactions every month. There is no real difference in cost to the transactions themselves (to an extent, and in this example). You are willing to pay to have the ability to transact, regardless of the size. The whole point here is that your 10K is more valuable than their 1K, therefore you would in theory pay more to have the ability to transact (regardless of # of transactions). I agree though - its gouging for no reason.
- jhammer 12y agoI am obviously biased [1], but if you want a nicer (native) UI than Sendy, you might want to check out our app Direct Mail: http://directmailmac.com http://directmailmac.com It has a built-in delivery service, but can also plug into SES or any other SMTP service for a one-time fee.

- jaysonelliot 12y agoLooks nice, but it's even more expensive than Mailchimp unless you have your own mail server.
