User Testimonials
	Amazon Simple Email Service (SES)	Zoho Zeptomail
Likelihood to Recommend	Amazon AWS 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. Incentivized LN Lav Nandan Software Engineer Read full review	Zoho No answers on this topic
Pros	Amazon AWS 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 RS Ranu Singh Technology Manager Read full review	Zoho No answers on this topic
Cons	Amazon AWS While the service limits are one of the main points that keep the delivery metrics so reliable, it can be stressful to get a new implementation out the door quickly. If you're looking for a point-and-click style email delivery tool, this is not the right type of product for you. Amazon Simple Email Service is for a developer-centric approach to implementation into existing applications, processes, and services.

Usability	Amazon AWS 1. Very less cost. 2. Fastest in market. 3. Negligible downtime. 4. Easy to integrate with other systems. 5. Easy to setup with your domain and email. Incentivized RS Ranu Singh Technology Manager Read full review	Zoho No answers on this topic
Support Rating	Amazon AWS 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.

Alternatives Considered	Amazon AWS 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.

Return on Investment	Amazon AWS SES is still more cost effective than other email services like Mailgun. Unless we have a high-traffic month, staying within the free tier is very nice for our bottom line. Not having to spend time worrying about SES reliability saves us frustration and money.
