Allegrow vs. Amazon Simple Email Service (SES)

If a company or individual would like to improve their deliverability and spam rating this is a great tool as you will reach more people and therefore have a better email reputation. You can also test emails to see which content works best which is useful when sending out email campaigns to new prospects that use a range of email account types

Amazon Simple Email Service comes with the bundle of Amazon Web Services (AWS) and it also offers a limited number of emails per month for free. One who has a technical background and wants to send custom emails with custom domains in a professional way can go with Amazon Simple Email Service. If you have no technical background or tech team, it might not be useful for you.

• As compare to other vendors that I have integrated response is very quick.
• You can verify both domain or email to send out the emails from.
• While setup you can easily configure it with your domain with few clicks like adding CNAME, DKIM records
• Easy to use with or without access key and secret key within aws servers. You can directly map permissions to servers to go without credentials using boto3.

Incentivized

• Less disturbance to mail due to the amount of emails being received in the inbox

• Even if you do not want to spam, you cant send an email to the unverified users.
• Integration with other services is a bit tricky. To watch the trail, handle bounced emails, save emails on S3 are not straightforward to implement.
• When you want to send a lot of emails (in bulk), it takes a significant amount of time.

Allegrow's support team is second to none. After spending months back and forth via email correspondences, the pending issue was the direct fault of my email configuration SPF record. All this time spent was cause by me not them. They were kind enough to offer unrelentless support with ample details.They truly and genuinely care about each customer. Don't matter how big or small. One of their reps. is an all star as he held my hand every step of the way.All and all, I highly recommend Allegrow for warming up your domain and IP because their support wont leave you hanging like other services I used before!God bless you guys tremendously!

We did not have the need of contacting Amazon for support. The documentation they provide is of great quality. Examples are easy to follow. One thing to have into consideration is we didn't have the premium support for AWS, so I can't provide details on how good or bad this service is, but in general, the basic support I had was great.

I havent used other Allegrow alternatives. I chose Allegrow because of their lifetime deal on AppSumo and they were the only warm up email services I knew about at the time.

Mailchimp has a fixed monthly price, and with the number of emails that we sent, it's pretty expensive. Since our mailings are quite infrequent, using Mailchimp didn't make financial sense for us, even though Mailchimp is a more polished, packaged solution for email marketing. We evaluated other email delivery solutions as well and didn't find anything that matches Amazon SES on reliability and pricing.

Incentivized

• Improved deliverability of emails
• Deliverability improved by 24% on average across several email accounts

• Amazon Simple Email Service has improved delivery rates and eliminated delivery issues everywhere we have impelmented it.
• We have been able to enforce stricter security within our application environments because we are using Amazon Simple Email Service instead of handling email transmissions natively.
