What our customers have to say
Clear interface
After messing around with Mailchimp and walking away unhappy, it's been a godsend to come across Mailersend. The layout is extremely clear, it hooks up to Zapier, and the one issue I had was cleared up by support in minutes. Most importantly, everything's landing in inboxes.
Outstanding support
MailerSend is extremely easy to use and super fast to set up. I was able to send the first email via the API in minutes. With the predefined templates and drag & drop editor you're able to do a real quick start. What's really worth mentioning is the outstanding customer support which replies in minutes.
Powerful API
Excellent deliverability, instant sending, powerful API, complete email analytics, fast support and a great dashboard. It's straightforward to set up; I barely used the documentation. Also, their KYC process is flawless and quick; I was able to use the full features only a couple of hours after signing up.
