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.

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

Pros

"Most of the time, the reports show that SendinBlue is really efficient."
"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."
"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."
"The API configuration is much cleaner in SendGrid."
"With SendGrid, we have found a perfect solution to that scenario, and we don't have to involve infrastructure team anymore."
"SendGrid is a most powerful third-party tool to use for email sending, and it improves the delivery rates compared to other services."
"SendGrid provides the best analytics a competent postmaster needs."
"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."
"White-listed mail which avoids spam on mail services like Gmail and Yahoo."
 

Cons

"The filters could be more efficient."
"For my use case, SendGrid is very good. The cost could potentially be improved, though I am not very familiar with pricing details."
"Maybe they could have a mobile application to give to admins, so they could see some insights related to the data."
"They are backlogged on feature requests, which is a bit of a shame really."
"SendGrid is already nice, but it could be improved by providing the company ID when sending the email."
"If you don't really have an advanced subscription for SendGrid, it might take a while for you to reach the customer support."
"SendGrid could improve pricing flexibility and offer more detailed analytics without extra cost."
"The documentation is not fine, so I believe the documentation needs to be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is relatively inexpensive."
"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 basic plan starts at €90 per month."
"We are using the Advanced plan,10K. That is about $100 per month but sometimes we do go over the limit of the plan."
