The filters could be more efficient but the reports are clear and precise.
The filters could be more efficient. For example, when I send a campaign, I usually send it again seven days later. Sometimes, I update the database of emails in-between these mailings, and therefore, I have to re-enter all the filters of the first mailing, and it can take a very long time depending of the campaign.

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

Pros

"Most of the time, the reports show that SendinBlue is really efficient."
"SendGrid offers features that stand out for me, including that it is very easy to use, especially for a developer."
"My integration team likes that it's very easy to integrate and very easy to automate based on activities that happen on our core banking application."
"Overall, it provides a good return on investment through reliability, time savings, and improved communication."
"The most valuable feature is the conditions in automation."
"Their REST API feature is the most amazing and easy API I have used."
"It is a stable and scalable solution."
"In my experience, the best features SendGrid offers include the dashboard, which is very nice to review if emails were delivered or if something was wrong."
"White-listed mail which avoids spam on mail services like Gmail and Yahoo."
 

Cons

"The filters could be more efficient."
"SendGrid has room for improvement in the UI/UX or dashboard usability for users. Another area for improvement in the tool is its conditional logic facilities. The response time of SendGrid technical support needs improvement."
"They are very bad at supporting clients."
"The reporting part needs improvement."
"Pricing can be improved for SendGrid, as this is the only area I have seen that needs enhancement."
"The documentation is not fine, so I believe the documentation needs to be improved."
"The biggest problem that we have faced is with the authentication during login."
"If you don't really have an advanced subscription for SendGrid, it might take a while for you to reach the customer support."
"Maybe they could have a mobile application to give to admins, so they could see some insights related to the data."
 

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."
"The basic plan starts at €90 per month."
"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."
"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."
