Saves server load by sending bulk email notifications efficiently

The best feature SendGrid offers is the ability to send multiple emails at the same time. The ability to send multiple emails at the same time helps my workflow and organization because I do not have to run a loop every time. Once I set all the emails in a comma separator, I can send them to multiple users without creating too much load on my server. SendGrid has positively impacted my organization by solving the notification problem. By using SendGrid, I can easily send notifications to users, and it is simple to use in my Node.js project. SendGrid has helped with notifications because when I send an email, the user knows who is sending it and they can revert back to our CRM team. That is positive for our business and organization.

It's easy to use and integrate, but I have a problem with messages getting marked as spam

When we use Zoho Campaigns, our emails often get routed to the spam or promotion module instead of the inbox. For example, people who use Gmail to receive our newsletter will often miss it because it was sent to their promotion module or folder. Many of our clients aren't seeing our work. We compared it to another solution, and the open rate was much higher because the emails went directly routed to the inbox.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, my experience with SendGrid is quite good; I have used it in a couple of my projects and everything is smooth, from integration to sending emails; the only aspect I have mentioned several times during this interaction is the pricing."

"The solution scales well."

"They have pretty good support in terms of any issues."

"The best features SendGrid offers is the template customization, which really helps in creating templates according to client demand and their UI/UX experience."

"Since switching to SendGrid, I have seen that time is saved, and the trust of the portals like Gmail and Outlook ensures the emails are received quickly with minimum failure, which increases the business."

"The most valuable feature is the conditions in automation."

"The API side of things is valuable. It is flexible enough to handle pretty much anything that needs to be done in an automated manner."

"Easy API documentation is the most valuable feature of SendGrid, including its deliverability rate."

More SendGrid pros

"Putting the campaigns together on Zoho is reasonably straightforward; they have a little campaign builder tool that works very well as long as you don't want the campaign to be too sophisticated."

"It’s a very easy product to use, you do not need to be tech savvy or a whizz at email marketing."

"Zoho Campaigns is a great product. It's easy to use. Zoho Campaigns is integrated with my CRM, so I can see everything happening within my company from the dashboard. I can manage and group my contacts and automate reporting. I enjoy checking on the metrics for my campaign. It also gives me the option of linking with Google Analytics, but I like Azure analytics better."

"The initial setup is easy."

"The solution is very inexpensive and very reasonably priced."

"It's a very simple solution for email."

"The out-of-the-box integration with all the other Zoho applications is the most valuable feature of the solution."

"The solution generates a good return on investment."

Cons

"The reporting part needs improvement."

"Maybe they could have a mobile application to give to admins, so they could see some insights related to the data."

"Pricing can be improved for SendGrid, as this is the only area I have seen that needs enhancement."

"The biggest problem that we have faced is with the authentication during login."

"The biggest problem that we have faced is with the authentication during login. For certain people, SendGrid requires MFA, which is good as a security feature, but it doesn't always work in all geographies. We've got people and users who are based in Nigeria, and some of those people had real trouble logging into SendGrid because the MFA wouldn't send codes to people on their numbers. The security mechanism that they use for login doesn't work in all geographies."

"For my use case, SendGrid is very good. The cost could potentially be improved, though I am not very familiar with pricing details."

"SendGrid can be improved by making it more versatile and facilitating easier connections with third parties."

"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."

More SendGrid cons

"They could get better at dealing with spam. They need to improve their anti-spam capabilities."

"There is room for improvement with integration with other applications like MailChimp."

"They need to improve their anti-spam capabilities."

"It takes a lot of work to get it set up the way you want. It's not an intuitive product."

"It takes a lot of work to get it set up the way you want. It's not an intuitive product. It takes coding work to get the sales process to work. That setup process could be simplified significantly."

"Its deliverability could be improved."

"Zoho Campaigns has to improve its UI because sometimes it won't load the campaigns, and the software is a little lagging."

"When we use Zoho Campaigns, our emails often get routed to the spam folder instead of the inbox. For example, people who use Gmail to receive our newsletter will often miss it because it was sent to their spam folder. Many of our clients aren't seeing our work. We compared it to another solution, and the open rate was much higher because the emails went directly to the inbox."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 solution is relatively inexpensive."

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

"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."

"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 solution's pricing is reasonable."

"Since the product is part of a bundle, it is definitely very cost-efficient."

"Zoho Campaigns is cheaper compared to other products."

"The solution's price is reasonable."

"Zoho Campaigns is not that expensive as compared to other solutions like MailChimp."

"There are additional charges, like whenever I add additional users, I need to pay extra."

"We have an enterprise license for this because we use Zoho for lots of things. We have HR and a bunch of other things. We probably don't pay individually for marketing or sales, and it's all in the overall license that we have."

"The tool is priced less compared to other applications."
