There are lots of things that are quite good with SendGrid as compared to other platforms. For example, it is very easy to set up, and it is very clean and simple to use. The email integration is fairly easy, and I can say it is reliable. It also allows you to implement services from other platforms as well. So you can have multiple things in a single place. We're using the API. They provide certain add-ons, like Azure add-ons. You can connect with Azure as well. They have decent support in terms of any issues. They have a nice dashboard as well. It gives almost all information in a single place, and it is scalable.

It's a SaaS, and it totally scalable. We don't have anyone that is totally working on it since it's a part of the process; however, when we used to run the project, it was usually an assignment to someone on the technical team and me on the pro side and maybe someone on the marketing team. That was only when it was needed to send something. It's something that you only need to run when you need to send a message. It's something that happens automatically just based on the API integration, so you don't need a lot of users. We are using it in general for all our emails. We used to use to send all our emails ourselves. We increase usage when we increase the number of clients. We are also increasing usage when we are trying to send more messages around marketing or launching a new product.

The contact limit alerts need to be improved. The way that I see the limits and the way they implement the limit alerts in the current month will be billed on the next month and it's just not really accurate if you check on the alerts. The data field of contacts can use improvement, they are just straight labels and values. It would be better if you have the option to add an object that can be added to the custom field of contact. It will be better to display something on the email templates, and then the conditioning or logic in the automation.
