Cakemail vs. Mail250

Sometimes creativity is lacking in me and that is where Cakemail comes in and saves the day. I am glad that I can receive creative help from this awesome brand. The pricing is very affordable, in my opinion. It makes this platform a no-brainer!

I don't think it's well-suited for anyone. In my opinion, the low cost is not worth the extremely poor deliverability.

• Their templates are easy to use and visually appealing
• Visibility into our contact information is great

• Affordable
• Relatively easy to use
• Support was fine
• Has some attractive features like email verification

• An external package – like PHP support – Cake's component doesn't have that.
• I'd like to be able to view my user click rate and click frequency at the same time, to be able to compare it – they don't offer that.
• There's always room for improvement – but what Cakemail does well, it does very, very well.

• In my experience, deliverability is terrible
• UI feels old and limited
• Did not follow up to refund request
• Due to my poor overall experience, I'm very doubtful in the reliability of their features like email verification

I have used other email platforms before, but I think Cakemail is easier to use AND provides you with templates. For the other products I have tested out, you had to create your own templates from scratch. I like the ability to create from scratch, but on days where you lack the time or creativity, there are templates ready to go for you

I picked Mail250 because they seem designed for sending 1-time bulk mail for an affordable price.
Open rates for MailerLite, GetResponse,
ConvertKit, and SendPulse were all over 50%. Sender.net was extremely low at under 10%. Mail250 was around 10%, but also had an extremely high bounce rate of 10%.

• Unable to use it due to poor deliverability
