Featured Reviews

Ramkumar  Kolpurath - PeerSpot reviewer
Seamless email communication improves cost-effectiveness and security with valuable tracking features
The features of Amazon WorkMail that I have found the most valuable so far include sending emails and tracking whether the email is read or not. I find the feature that checks how many emails have been successfully sent and how many of them have been opened very useful, because in our application, we know the usage of the emails. The encryption of emails, both in transit and at rest, has benefited our security strategy as it is a layer of security that provides us better confidence for customers and also internally tracks the security aspects. The encryption meets my expectations.

Cost effective communication solution that has added value to our projects by facilitating automated and ad hoc customer communication
Reporting for this solution could be improved. For example, when you run A/B tests or MVT tests with multiple variants, then it is difficult to get a consolidated report. There are limitations on how to use the automation. The sending of messages could be more transactional as it is only possible to synchronize one per day.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best feature is that Amazon SES provides verified email messages."
"There is no need for me to set up security."
"It is highly available and scalable. It is also highly reliable. I don't lose any of the messages or emails. If there is an issue where the email sent operation failed, Amazon as a platform ensures that the send operation is retried, and the email reaches its destination. This way, it is highly reliable."
"We use the tool for transactional emails and marketing."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"The most valuable thing is that emails sent through SES have a delivery rate of greater than ninety percent."
"It is very stable. I haven't faced any issues."
"Amazon SES is very easy to configure."
"We use this solution for user onboarding via email automation and to send out product update newsletters. We also use it send out maintenance messages or ad hoc communication focused on a specific topic."
 

Cons

"I would like to see detailed reports on email success and failure rates."
"It would be ideal to have detailed data and reporting on email opens, clicks, bounces, and other metrics, as well as integration with other business intelligence tools."
"When we first set up an email on Amazon SES, they had to verify it, which was not fast enough."
"There is room for improvement in the scalability."
"The product should improve technical support."
"The solution is quite low-level and lacks some advanced features. For example, it doesn't provide tracking capabilities, such as knowing how many users opened an email, which is crucial for email marketing. You would need to integrate these analytics with other tools to get them. I need to know if there has been a bounce and how customers interacted with the email."
"The only issue is the price, which is far too expensive."
"There is room for improvement in the support. It's just that customer support, though good, takes time to resolve issues."
"Reporting for this solution could be improved. For example, when you run A/B tests or MVT tests with multiple variants, then it is difficult to get a consolidated report."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"WorkMail does require a license, it is, per user."
"I rate the solution's pricing as one out of ten. It is close to being cheap. Sometimes, the tool offers a generous amount of free messages, up to 40,000, which is great for startups like ours. This means that we don't accumulate any costs for some months because we stay within the free usage tier. When we exceed the free allocation, the costs are reasonable, and no hidden charges exist."
"The solution should improve its price."
"It's very cheap. The cheapest among all the services available."
"This solution is more cost effective than MailChimp."
