Which job do you need it to do?
For a small editorial newsletter, start with list growth and monthly sending. For shop follow-ups, check whether the exact plan includes the segments and recovery triggers you need. That’s a suggestion based on requirements. Deliverability and Chinese display remain untested, and we still need our own setup and recovery records. We haven’t picked a winner or given scores.
What this means for you
Start with your list and the emails you need to send. A lower starting price alone won’t settle the choice.

What to write down when you try it
- Your plan and its current limits: check the official documentation.
- How long setup, troubleshooting and monthly upkeep take.
- What works, what fails, and how you get it running again.
- The renewal date, how to export your data, and how to cancel.
If your process keeps changing, you can’t estimate usage, or no one can look after the setup, pause before subscribing. Keep a manual way to do the job while you try a tool.
