    The deliverability and ease-of-use of SMTP2GO were the two main factors for me. sendgrid does have a little more functionality, but I didn't really use it.

    We used to use the SMTP server of the domain hosting companies, however moving to the cloud for emails and the necessary added multifactor authentication for security purposes, it made the sending of scan to email and other reporting facilities difficult as they do not support …

    SMTP2GO ended up being cheaper and easier to use. SMTP2G0 fit our needs better partly because it was more compatible with older systems, but it also hit the mark in terms of price for scale.

    Brevo is more for Newsletters. SMTP2GO is a specialized service, which doesn't support sending newsletters, etc. But the sending quality of SMTP2GO is better than others. Its task is to deliver normal emails to the general inbox.

    Some of the other services are really good but with the ease of setting up sub-accounts, the success in not having bounced emails, or strange receiving issues, the platform being so easy to use, and great support when you need it. They just don't compare.

    This is the best product in this market and solves for a very specific niche. I highly recommend this service for anyone looking to get scan to email setup or have devices that need to send alerts that can't route through Office 365.

    Well we used to use sendgrid in the past.
    But their base plan shares an ip with others, which means that more often than not our emails were blocked
    They changed they policy of connections to api and sdks. We found Smtp2go that has the same price range and so we changed for them.

    It's great for any application that you need to track email receipt and recipient interaction, or with devices/programs that don't fare well with Exchange based email services. Don't try to set SMTP2GO as your outbound email server if you're using O365, that just isn't a possibility (not that I've looked into that setup).

    Cons
    SMTP2GO
    • Might be nice to add a monthly good looking PDF report for subaccount users that can be branded and sent directly to the subaccount contact. A 'client facing' report that we can use to show our customers the email usage history.

    Reliability in email delivery is what counts the most. SMTP2GO is undeniably a winner in this category. The price is reasonable, therefore the RoI is excellent.

    When I first contacted SMTP2GO while searching for a solution, they were extremely helpful and attentive. I think it only took two email messages to answer all my questions and make a decision. I don't think I've ever needed any support to implement and operate the several solutions I currently use with the SMTP2GO service. It just works intuitively and flawlessly.

    It has been so long since I did my comparison with other products that no comparison would be valid today. It has worked so well at a price point that is so acceptable that I don't feel an urge to do the evaluation again.

    Return on Investment
    SMTP2GO
    • Allowed us to use the same SMTP information across the board for all customers instead of having them split between several accounts.
    • More cost efficient than paying for several different email accounts.
    • Created an additional layer of great customer service for us since SMTP information is able to be preprogrammed into the equipment before ever leaving our facility.
