Featured Reviews

it_user241752 - PeerSpot reviewer
Marketing Specialist at a computer software company with 51-200 employees
The analytics were the most valuable part, although they returned a lot of false positives
It was not particularly user friendly in setting up the emails, managing the lists, or publishing reports. It also sent out a couple of emails between November and December twice. I don't know how you'd deal with the false positives thing, but certainly sending out emails more than once should be fixable, and a really good team of UI guys could probably make some headway with the difficulty in actually publishing reports and the like.
Amrit Dash - PeerSpot reviewer
Automation Engineer at a educational organization with 11-50 employees
Dynamic templates have streamlined student and parent email campaigns and build consistent engagement
The activity log is a little slower at times, but that is probably just nitpicking an issue. Overall, in general, there are not really very difficult pain points. There are certain issues sometimes when we are trying to handle a very big campaign; we might end up having a little bit less reputation in terms of bounces or spam reports that get detected when we send out the emails. Apart from that, there is not anything that would become a significant pain point. If you don't really have an advanced subscription for SendGrid, it might take a while for you to reach the customer support.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The analytics were the most valuable part, although they returned a lot of false positives from the remote configurations of email servers we hit."
"It enables the quick creation of email templates, and also tracks valuable metrics."
"The API configuration is much cleaner in SendGrid."
"SendGrid has positively impacted my organization by solving the notification problem."
"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"Overall, it provides a good return on investment through reliability, time savings, and improved communication."
"SendGrid offers features that stand out for me, including that it is very easy to use, especially for a developer."
"With SendGrid, we have found a perfect solution to that scenario, and we don't have to involve infrastructure team anymore."
"Their REST API feature is the most amazing and easy API I have used."
"The solution scales well."
 

Cons

"It was not particularly user friendly in setting up the emails, managing the lists, or publishing reports."
"The drag and drop templates are great, but sometimes they cause HTML errors that require diagnosing the problem within individual lines of code."
"SendGrid has positively impacted my organization as we moved to it from our own email servers, though it also gives us less control over everything."
"Pricing can be improved for SendGrid, as this is the only area I have seen that needs enhancement."
"A long time ago, I may have had an issue, and I had to wait for support, which wasn't that helpful. However, that was a very long time ago. Overall, I've had a good experience."
"They are backlogged on feature requests, which is a bit of a shame really."
"The contact limit alerts need to be improved."
"SendGrid has documentation that is not up to date, and their support team is the worst."
"SendGrid is already nice, but it could be improved by providing the company ID when sending the email."
"I forgot my password, and when I tried to log in, it indicated that a reset link was sent to my email, but I did not receive it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"My company pays for SendGrid monthly, and though I cannot share the amount, my feedback is that the vendor should accept other modes of payment apart from a credit card."
"Its cost can vary. It can go as low as $10 or $15 to $1,000 depending on how much you use it."
"I use the essential plan which is $20 a month. After that, we use the pro which is $90 a month, and had all our costs bundled in."
"The solution is relatively inexpensive."
"We are using the Advanced plan,10K. That is about $100 per month but sometimes we do go over the limit of the plan."
"The basic plan starts at €90 per month."
