Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the product and billing.

Mailjet has a user-friendly, intuitive interface which makes it easy to use for email marketers with little experience in this field. However, its drag-and-drop editor is limited in terms of its offerings. Mailjet is suitable for an individual who only wants to carry out basic email marketing tasks, but for enterprises that want to run successful campaigns, we suggest going with Mailmodo. Mailmodo's WYSIWYG editor has rich media and text capabilities with unlimited live previews and all the templates have an auto-responsive design.

Mailjet meets most of the email marketing needs of small businesses, but it lacks customer support and functionality. If you’re looking for a full stack email marketing solution to send automated, triggered, transactional, marketing, static, interactive, and targeted emails, look no further than Mailmodo. Bring life to your emails with interactive widgets, powerful personalization and automation features, and diverse triggers and integrations.

You can use Mailjet for free forever, sending 6,000 emails/month. But they cap it at 200 emails/day, which makes the plan restrictive. If you want a flexible pricing plan for your email marketing needs, try Mailmodo. We don’t even ask for a credit card. You can send up to 10,000 emails to 10,000 contacts monthly with our free plan. It also comes with additional perks, like unlimited campaigns and advanced analytics reporting.

Mailmodo is the best alternative to Elastic Email because it has user-friendly email design features, manages your deliverability to boost your inbox placement rate, and provides 24/7 email, phone, and customer support.

Elastic Email is good for businesses looking to do email marketing on a small scale. At a large scale, however, the tool has shown deliverability issues. For boosting your inbox placement rate, consider using Elastic Email alternatives like Mailmodo to get a dedicated IP server and 1-on-1 consultation with a deliverability expert.

Mailmodo is far more superior than Elastic Email in terms of deliverability. The former offers warmed up domain and tools to authenticate your emails to boost your inbox placement rate.
