Overall Satisfaction with Twilio SendGrid

We were looking to send transactional emails for our billing and payment stuff. That is where Twilio SendGrid came in. We wanted to send real time notification of all the billing to our customers and I heard really good things about Twilio API. The major problem we were looking to solve is great user experience to our customers. Twilio API was the perfect solution for it. Especially when the emails land directly to the inbox. Too good.

Pros

  • Perfect email delivery to inbox
  • Easy to use Twilio API
  • Easy to use, onboarding is nice
  • Good trust factor

Cons

  • Require more campaign templates for marketing
  • More customizable variables in the email for personalization
  • Pricing can be more friendly
  • increased open rate by 15%
  • increased click rate by 5%
  • improved revenue by 3%
As it is very easy to handle by a novice user as well. Nothing technical as such. There are a lot of good documentation involved, so one can easily handle the menus, even if it feels overwhelming. Also, there is no technical jargon used, so it is very easy to use and the onboarding experience is great too.

Twilio SendGrid is well suited for transactional and marketing campaigns. Especially if someone wants a good open and click rate, this is really good. This is not appropriate for cold email campaigns. Also, there are a lot of customizations available for transactional campaigns. So your customers can definitely have a good experience.
