Pros
No answers on this topic
  • Flexible for engineering teams. Mailtrap works well in environments where multiple developers are responsible for email functionality.
  • We're on the Enterprise plan which allows for customizations for our needs. For example, we had a request not to record email bodies for privacy reasons, and Mailtrap enabled that pretty fast.
  • The user experience is awesome. The platform is easy to use and the support team responds fast and helps us out with any questions.
