"Email Alerts using Amazon SES"
5/5
What do you like best about Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES)?

Amazon SES can be integrated with with any services to send email or alerts , SES is very useful for setting up triggered email within minutes just by registering senders email address with SES service.

SES can be used in variety of use cases like delivering business critical or any other service critical real time email to respective authority.

It is super easy to implement SES with python code too, a user can integrate it easily using boto3 library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES)?

Lack of debugging is one thing which I expect more in simple email service by Amazon. For triggering an email using ses a user needs to register the email address with ses service but in case if a user doesn't register the email address and try to sends email the email will not get triggerd , SES will not show any error too in this case leaving the end user clue less.

"Budget Friendly - Cheapest ESP with Limited Support"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES)?

It is the cheapest email service provider to my knowledge. It has all the basic featured to send emails with proper SPF and DKIM domain authentication from e-commerce giant Amazon. They just provide API, which you need to set up in your panel from which you can send emails. We used Amazon SES for both transactions as well as promotional emails. For promotional emails, we used easy sendy, email octopus and self-hosted mail wizz to compose and send emails via Amazon SES. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES)?

It support is the main negative point that leads to switching to other email providers with a much better support team, especially at the time of integration. Amazon SES dashboard is also not friendly for a nontech person; it was difficult to configure and find the API key needed to integrate a 3rd party email-sending tool like WebEngage. We can have different unsubscribe groups according to the email type like triggered, OTP, promotional etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
