Frequently Asked Questions
Is Amazon SES a cheaper solution?
Amazon SES sending rates are generally very cost-effective, however, this doesn’t include a lot of the features that comprehensive solutions like MailerSend does. For example, to get customer support, reputation monitoring and analytics with Amazon SES, you must pay extra which drives up the cost considerably, making it a more expensive option.

We provide clear, comprehensive documentation and 7 SDK libraries (PHP, Laravel, Node.js, Golang, Python, Ruby, Java) that are updated monthly. Developers can simply plug in our email API or SMTP relay and MailerSend will do the rest while low-coders can use our extensive library of integrations to connect their apps.
