Spotsaas Editor’s POV

SendGrid's API remains functional for email campaigns, but recent reviews document specific operational issues. Users report account suspensions without clear explanation, support response times exceeding 48 hours, and IP blacklisting that degrades deliverability. The platform requires dedicated IPs (additional cost) to maintain sender reputation—a hidden expense ...Read more

Useful for companies who send out large quantities of emails

What do you like best? SendGrid has a nice user interface. It is very straightforward and provides the necessary tools needed to get a campaign out to our customers. What do you dislike? I am not a fan of the design editor. I know there are many issues when it comes to responsiveness with some email vendors but the email never looks the same in the editor, preview mode, or actually viewing the email after it is sent. This definitely is something they need to work on. Recommendations ...

Reliable service, great API, decent support.

What do you like best? Their Public API and the ability it provides us to scale SendGRid as we scale our business. If an action can be done in the SendGrid admin interface it can be done by their API as well. What do you dislike? Aside from running into a few 404 links and outdated information in their documentation, there isn't anything I dislike. Recommendations to others considering the product Get yourself a trail and save yourself the headache of managing your own email ...

Stable and useful system

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? I am currently in the process of assigning users for SendGrid, and the system seems to be quite stable. The product is used by plenty of big corporations which is comforting. What aspects are problematic or could work better? The documentation could be improved and the features could be explained more clearly. Some of the basic features are not easily accessible. For example, it is difficult to create a list and use a URL on a ...

Ideal app for basic email service

PROS & CONS What are the best aspects of this product? You can do all the hard work of setting up an email system or you can simply register for SendGrid and start sending emails quickly. It is an affordable product especially if you use it for general email service like us and not for marketing. I have no complaints as the system functions nicely. There are advanced features too like tracking bounced emails. What aspects are problematic or could work better? I don’t have any ...

SendGrid wasn't as intuitive as I needed

What do you like best? I liked that SendGrid easily worked with the database needed to pull data for the subscribers. What do you dislike? I managed weekly emails that would go out to two different lists of clients. The problem I had came from the inability to differentiate the analytics of if someone was opening one email or the other. I need the extra data to Recommendations to others considering the product If you need very detailed analytics, there are better and less expensive ...
