Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the product and billing.

You can create an account for free to try Campaign Monitor and send an email campaign to five contacts. If you exceed the contact limit, you will have to buy the paid plan starting from $9/month, where you can send emails to 500 contacts. For a more affordable alternative, you can consider using Mailmodo.

Campaign Monitor is not HIPAA compliant. Although they’ve signed a Business Associate Agreement (BAA), Campaign Monitor won't allow you to utilize their service to send emails containing Protected Health Information (PHI). If you’re looking for a HIPAA compliant ESP, consider using Mailmodo.

Subscribers have frequently expressed frustration with Campaign Monitor for its high spam rates and occasionally blocked servers. Use Mailmodo if you want a higher deliverability rate. We assist clients with domain warming, stop spammers, and provide advice on increasing deliverability rates.

Klaviyo offers a free trial. You can create an account, edit and customize email templates, import and sync your data, and send emails with it. You can send a maximum of 500 emails to up to 250 contacts. You also receive 150 SMS credits. Once you exceed that limit, you will receive a prompt to upgrade your account by paying a fee.

Klaviyo was designed keeping eCommerce businesses in mind, while Mailmodo is an email marketing platform that caters to all kinds of organizations. For businesses that don’t sell physical products online, like service-based companies, Mailmodo has a range of features, such as AMP email interactivity and integrations with Hubspot, Google Sheets, Influencer Bit, and Pabbly to help you scale up.

Mailmodo is a better choice in terms of email deliverability. If you’re a Klaviyo user, your fluctuating email deliverability rates may be attributed to a low engagement history, poor domain reputation, or scammy email list. Mailmodo helps boost your email deliverability by giving you expert consultations, helping you with domain warm up, and removing spammers from our platform.
