The email provides us with the system of mail jet and send grid which is some important technical features in the market these days, I took the support of AOL tech Support to deal with these systems of emailing, this helped me know much about the ways to deal with the transactions on email.

One day, they simply disabled our account because of some user complaints. Without getting to details. They did it twice. First time I we agreed emails are ok and "you are welcome to use elastic emails". In three weeks (or so) on monday ElasticEmail welcomed me with "You account permanently disabled" sign. Great! adoconnection@gmail.com – thats my mail. I hope you ll be bancrupt damn elasticemail.

commented on SendPulse
I am a very detail orientated person and the detailed statistics review is great on Sendpulse. I had started with a free trial but now I am a monthly user and love it. The prices are adjustable depending on the time of email/subscriptioners that you have. If you have less than 2,500 then you can use up to 15,000 emails, which is a great option. Being a business owner based out of Milan, Italy, I like that this service is international and is fast and reliable. I highly suggest Sendpulse to anyone who is looking to spend a reasonable amount on a service with extraordinary benefits.

It is well organized and reliable in every way. When you put subscribers to your mailing lists, evaluate the results of email campaigns and send newsletters it is more than enough to see that this is the right service for You. I suggest you give it a try, the payment is the last thing that will be on your mind when you have free trial version.

Thanks to an integrated platform, it is usable on all the mobile devices, will not be a problem to implement the service in the actual project. The rates are set up, depending on the intensity of mailing or the amount of letters per month. For example, up to 15k letters per month are for free.

Every email marketing solution I've tested and worked with so far has its own unique benefits, but this one takes the cake. If you are a small business looking to get started with email marketing with the least amount of fuss, this service should be part of your toolbox. It's also exceptionally affordable when you consider how much you get with your plan. Delivery rate is very high, they have great and quick tech support and their open rate is much better then at competitors. So if you're out there looking for a great email marketing solution, this service is what you're looking for.
