Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the product and billing.

MailerLite’s email automation is sophisticated to use. Their automation feature is part of every plan, including the free trial. You can use autoresponders to set up marketing emails, like welcome emails. Building automation flows using their drag-and-drop builder is easy because the platform is intuitive. However, if you’re looking to do triggered email marketing, Mailmodo is a complete value for money. It’s a powerful tool for building multistep automation flows and is cost-effective.

With MailerLite’s free plan, you can send 12,000 emails monthly to 1,000 contacts. Only 1 user can sign up for the trial account. Also, key features such as drag-and-drop editor, email automation builder, signup forms, and pop-ups are included in the trial. However, if the contact limit is exceeded, you will have to shell out money and switch to a paid plan.

Yes, Mailmodo is a far more advanced alternative to MailerLite. With Mailmodo, you can send AMP emails that reduce redirections and drop-offs. Connecting your own SMTP is also a huge advantage for any email marketing team. Besides, Mailmodo offers 24/7 email, phone, and chat support.

You can sign up for Omnisend’s free plan and send up to 500 emails monthly. However, if you find the trial plan too limiting, you can consider taking advantage of Mailmodo’s free trial plan.

If you’re not able to build complex workflows with Omnisend, it is likely that you’re among the many customers who have complained about its limited automation capabilities. If you’re looking for an automation solution that offers you pre-made workflows, custom triggers, and endless integrations, try Mailmodo. It’s a great Omnisend alternative.

Omnisend has a poor deliverability rate, which leads to your users’ low inbox placement rates. Want to achieve better email deliverability? You can rely on Mailmodo's dedicated servers, warmed up domain, and suppression management strategies.
