Best Email Marketing Services & Tools
No any successful business can grow without a good working and well structured marketing campaign that concentrates on a communication with a loyal customer base. There are many ways to get in contact with your loyal clients and offer them your product. One of the most used methods are email, push notifications and sms marketing. By spreading a discount offer, introducing a new product or feature for your product, inviting your client to take a part in raffle prizes - all these are good occasions for a perfect newsletter! But what is the best way to deliver this email to your customer?
There are many email marketing services that offer a high percentage of deliverability. And using such a service is a good decision. This is much better to pay for a professional service as trying to use your own email server as there are many hidden problems that can happen: your IP address may be blacklisted and all email will go into SPAM folder, your domain can be marked as suspicious for sending SPAM and many other reasons to avoid doing email marketing on your own.
Using a professional email marketing has many benefits. You can simple create any template by adding your personal logo, title, company colors and other important branding details. The SMTP server are white listed, this will lead to best possible deliverability. Also you are able to track and analyze the results by adding your own tracking parameter, clicks or even sales generated from a newsletter. Below is a list of most popular Email Marketing services and tools.

Comments and Reviews
I really want to like this service, their pricing is very promising and relatively transparent to allow me to properly plan out the cost efficiency. As someone who's doing a startup with no upfront cost, I was sold on the idea that the free tier includes 100 emails/day, which would allow me to get away with the first wave of account signups, but either through false marketing or badly managed service, trying to send a test email with their API responded with an error saying that free users can't send emails and that I should upgrade to a paid tier for that. Really disappointing, couldn't test out their service on what promised 100 emails/day for free, so now I'm looking for an alternative that *will* hook me long-term.
We are using it to send registration, password reset mails etc. for 5 different apps. We had some delivery problems in the beginning, but the support was really helpful and we got it solved. Other than that it is just running without any trouble for years now.
The feature set is fine, but their advertising for the "free" tier is borderline misleading. THE TRIAL TIER WILL ONLY LAST FOR A MONTH. After this you will be transferred to the $35/mo tier. The product itself is fine, but I wasn't expecting the invoice. EDIT: If you request cancellation, you will be offered the "Flex" option, which isn't otherwise available. Kinda scummy practices.
We tried mailgun for several days. It took me 3 days to get the API implemented and another 2 days to get our application connected to the principals of this service.
After we started our marketing campaign we got an email after 1000 sent emails that our account has been blocked due violating some TOS.
This service is very strict so better look for an alternative.
I've used both Sendgrid and Mailgun at low/moderate volumes (150k mails per month) for transactional & marketing messages. Despite what I would consider roughly similar delivery rates I've preferred my experience with Mailgun. The biggest reason is actually the web dashboard - I just find working with Mailgun's website much faster and more clear.
That said - either service is a massive improvement on running your own infrastructure. If you haven't used a service like this for sending email you're definitely going to be impressed with how easy Mailgun will make your life.
A lot of different features which I (and a lot of users never will use). In this case it would be so great if there will be different versions of MailGun. Now, when there is no "sending emails for dummies" kind of tutorials I will use something more friendlier for starters users like MailerLite
Buuuut, 10K free emails per month is something I've never seen before! Most of Mailgun clients don't even need to pay for sending emails.
10,000 emails free every month. No credit card required is a great deal for most small/midsize businesses. It also can integrate with WordPress. (https://wordpress.org/plugins/mailgun/)
Mandrill use to have a free level like mailgun
No longer this.
