"Sendgrid is difficult to work with despite the relatively simple email creation interface."
2/5
What do you like best about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

Creating emails is fairly easy, even though the email creator is a little dated. Sending emails is fairly straightforward once you get your lists in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

There are strict limits on how many contacts you can have in the system, not based on how many are currently in there but on how many were in at the beginning of the month. So, even if I delete many records, I can't replace those with new records until next month. It's a convoluted system, made worse by how restrictive adding in and deleting lists is. You need to make a titled list first, which is separate from a list you are uploading. Then, you must upload a CSV and assign fields every time (the system doesn't remember to pair certain column names with certain fields). Deleting segments is more difficult, which is frustrating because segmentation can help you find non-responsive records to delete every month in order to save space.

This email app now has a forced two-factor authentication feature where you MUST sign in using a mobile phone or with their mobile-phone-number-based mobile app. For a simple email marketing service. This is their way of forcing us to use their "Authy" app. We are a small business and use Sendgrid for sending business emails - we have no use for that.

Overall, it is a clunky system that always takes a more roundabout way to do things, when a simple email marketing tool should be much simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Do not take this email service - Disaster"
0/5
What do you like best about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

Sendgrid is a terrible and works unprofessionally. Stay away. Use MailChimp or other service. They closed our account and no technical support whatsoever.

Nothing. It's easy to set up and navigate, but they close your account without reason OR NOTIFICATION! And don't return money for their mistakes that affect campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

They closed our account without any notification saying there's no use in a while but I was there everyday and scheduled even a campaign the day before they closed our account!! So after sending out an email blast, they immediately close your account without reason!? There is NO customer support of any kind. So you'll lose your money. It's a scam.

"A Disappointing Experience with SendGrid: Unreliable Product and Poor Customer Service"
0/5
What do you like best about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

The editor was indeed seamless, and the onboarding process was smooth. But these positives were quickly overshadowed by the amount of issues I encountered during and after my email marketing campaign. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

I can't emphasize enough how unreliable and untrustworthy SendGrid's email marketing tool proved to be. My first campaign, sent to over 90,000 customers turned into a disaster. The email links were broken, links were non-functional, and it ended up breaking our company's reputation.

The real frustration began when I saw that my account had been closed without any prior notice. The reason given was that I hadn't been using the service for a while, which was blatantly false. I was desperate for assistance, I reached out to customer service, only to be met with an agonizingly slow response time.

It took an entire week for them to acknowledge my issue and inform me that the email campaign had failed due to some vague IP warming process. The lack of awareness regarding this crucial aspect is unacceptable, especially for a tool that claims to be a professional email marketing solution.

To add, the customer service was shockingly unprofessional. A customer experiencing a catastrophic failure in a 90,000-email marketing campaign should be a top priority. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"For an email marketing tool, its restrictive. Should have more options w.r.t design, and layout."
4/5
What do you like best about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

Ease of navgiation and operation. Our junior members could start using it efficiently in a couple of weeks which is a good sign. That leaves more time for the seniors to focus on pressing and important work. All in all, pretty good for the money spent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

Felt restrictive when it came to design, layout, and quality. Data migration/list building was buggy at times. We found it good for email blasts but when it came to designing newsletters, we were kind of disappointed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very dependable tool for bulk email campaigns"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

We have been using Twilio SendGrid for sending targeted emails to niche segments as well as for bulk activation campaigns. The best part of Sendgrid is the Custom HTML building platform which allows building any free-form template from scratch as well as copying the HTML code from templates built on other platforms like MoEngage. Tracking global data and well as campaign-wise performance data is also very simple and readily available on the platform. For additional custom-reports, the customer support team readily replies when we raise a ticket. We have also integrated SendGrid with MoEngage, and the DLR reported pushed to MoEngage from SendGrid API allows us to view the delivery report data across platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Twilio SendGrid Email Marketing Campaigns?

The pricing is on the higher side compared to other platform and embedding links is a very high effort exercise because the SendGrid platform somehow lacks the no-code features. Also, building the domain-authority and email-reputation on SendGrid is a very difficult task and takes a very long time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
