"If you are looking for an affordable email marketing tool, this is it!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Sendy?

If you are technical, Sendy can do wonders for you. It's easy to set up, cheaper than every email marketing tool I have used, and does what it says. Great for bulk email campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendy?

Not a significant issue, but the platform could use a modern and intuitive interface. If you are not a technical person, you could have difficulty adapting to the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Fantastic In-House Email Sending Program"

5/5

What do you like best about Sendy?

Sendy.io is so easy to use and set up. We use it to integrate and talk to Amazon AWS email services saving us thousands of dollars a year on our in-house email marketing. It's easy to update, includes life-time updates and it's massively affordable without monthly subscriptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendy?

It has crashed a few times, and while we've always received an email from support, it's typically a point to their forums. But problems have been resolved quickly with a little hunting. There also isn't an API so it's pretty much plug-and-play software. We've spent significant time trying to work around the few coding limitations with ok results. But it took a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sendy:

Sendy does not send your emails. It is a web platform you install on your server for a web interface to send your marketing emails. You need an email service provider to send your emails. We recommend Amazon AWS. It also does not DESIGN your emails. You need to import HTML or use a very basic text/image form that's included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sendy solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sendy gives us the ability to use an easy web interface to send our marketing emails through Amazon AWS at a fraction of the price that we'd pay through MailChimp or MyEmma, etc. We're able to manage multiple brands, multiple email lists with easy-to-use functionality.

"Sendy is the most reliable, self-hosted, Email Marketing tool you can buy!"

5/5

What do you like best about Sendy?

Sendy is a great email marketing tool. Especially if you're looking for a self-hosted solution. I installed Sendy on my Cloudways VP server about three years ago and have never had any issues. Some people find setting everything up with Amazon's SES service a little intimidating, but there are plenty of videos out there that can walk you through the process.

With Amazon SES, the deliverability is excellent! Plus, I can send 10k emails for only a dollar! No one else even comes close when it comes to pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendy?

Although you can set up autoresponders with Sendy, it doesn't have the kind of functionality you'll get with some of the larger services in the marketing place. In other words, you can't track every action they take on your site and then send them pre-written messages based on those actions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sendy solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sendy is great for sending newsletters, press releases, and scheduled mailings of all kinds.

I can create html emails, import html-based templates, or stick with plain text. I can also set up my autoresponder messages without any problems. Sendy also keeps excellent stats so you can keep track of who's reading your emails, bounces, unsubscribes, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cost Effective solution for your Startup in initial phases for email/newsletters"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Sendy?

Cost obviously is a major factor which gives you a perpetual license for the all the minor versions releases, which means you are covered for a pretty good time. Other considerations are ease of implementation, configuration and maintenance. Creating templates (copy-pasting HTML code), maintaining lists and campaigns is also not too difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendy?

The interface - I wish the dashboard and other interfaces were a bit more user-friendly to use. It takes some time to get used to the interface. Also, more of a wish-list perhaps given the cost, however, an interface to check email rendering with different email applications would have helped a lot to remain on a single system than using a separate system just for the purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sendy:

For early days of your organisation, if you are looking to manage your subscribers list automatically (including unsubscribe, etc), go for Sendy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sendy solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mostly this was being used to send campaigns and newsletters to subscribers. In our initial phases, when we were bootstrapping and wanted good returns for every buck spent, Sendy came as a good tool achieving the purpose along with AWS SES. It did fulfill it's utility in the initial growth phase when we were able to make a cost-effective solution to our immediate problem of being connected to our user-base and apprising them of our promos and offers from time to time. With it's basic analytics regarding unsubscribing and delivery, it also helped us to maintain our domain and IP reputation for email sending. This resulted in increasing our SES email sending capability to be increased to 50k emails per 24 hours with a good per second rate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cheap and best"

4.5/5

Can send in bulk. Easy to use. Cheaper than most mailing products since it is linked with SES Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendy?

Not many rules to keep while keeping email sequence Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Use for Transactional emails. Can also use for Marketing mails but with less customization compared to other tools.

Overall, if it's only about conveying a message email. This is the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lowered the emailing cost. Could sent mails in bulk Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable, low cost"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Sendy?

Low fees in combination with Amazon SES. It works reliable, does what it is supposed to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendy?

It does not have all the features I would like to have, for instance there is no A/B testing. The editor is not very good. If you want to send out professional looking marketing emails you need to add a service like Stripo Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Significant technical knowledge required for setup, and support team doesn't respond to emails"

0.5/5

What do you like best about Sendy?

Pricing appears to be competitive versus alternatives Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sendy?

There is a significant amount of work and technical knowledge required to setup Sendy on AWS.

After testing setup we identified Sendy was not right tool for us and requested a refund from Sendy within 24hrs, but Sendy team did not respond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
