Featured Reviews

Ghias Ahmad - PeerSpot reviewer
Good for digital marketing purposes, such as creating and managing email campaigns
Mailchimp could be more user-friendly for setting up WordPress websites. Some of the complex settings can be time-consuming to configure. So, setting up Mailchimp for WordPress websites can be time-consuming for an average user but not necessarily difficult. It's time-consuming, especially when adding custom code to email campaigns. It requires some experience and knowledge to do it effectively.

Rastu Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
Clean and simple to use with good integration capabilities
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.
