This way, you don\u2019t have to rely on the limited email sending mechanisms of regular email service providers like Gmail.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a id=\"safe\"><\/a>If you want a more detailed understanding of SMTP and how it works, check out my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmass.co\/blog\/smtp\/\">ultimate guide to SMTP<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>Is SendGrid Safe?<\/h4>\n<p><a id=\"why\"><\/a>SendGrid has earned SOC 2 Type II certification for its robust security and data protection measures. All your email data is encrypted by TLS, and SendGrid also provides two-factor authentication to protect your account.<\/p>\n<h4>Why Should I Use SendGrid?<\/h4>\n<p>SendGrid is one of the most powerful email solutions out there. It allows you to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Send a high-volume email marketing campaign with ease.<\/li>\n<li>Set up <strong>automated<\/strong> transactional mail.<\/li>\n<li>Generate reports to monitor your email performance and deliverability.<\/li>\n<li>Build powerful custom solutions with SendGrid API integrations.<\/li>\n<li>Design responsive promotional emails that work on a mobile app as well as a desktop browser.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, SendGrid does have some drawbacks. Check them out <a href=\"#drawbacks\">here<\/a>.<a id=\"features\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s further explore how this SMTP provider can help you:<\/p>\n<h2>5 Key Features of SendGrid<\/h2>\n<p>SendGrid has a wide array of features to service various email marketing needs.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s a closer look at five of its main features:<\/p>\n<h3>1. Send Bulk Emails with High Deliverability Rates<\/h3>\n<p>Choosing SendGrid allows you to send <strong>massive<\/strong> email campaigns to your audience with ease.<\/p>\n<p>All you need to do is <a href=\"#create\">create your email<\/a>, choose the recipient list, and schedule your campaign. SendGrid can take care of the rest!<\/p>\n<p><em>But wait &#8230; this is a common feature among most email marketing tools, like Amazon SES, Mandrill, or MailChimp. What makes SendGrid <strong>different<\/strong>?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The SendGrid email service provider can ensure an extremely high email delivery rate through a range of features such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Integrated email tests<\/strong>: SendGrid can help you test your promotional emails and email newsletters for spammy content and broken links with ease.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spam testing<\/strong>: Spam testing allows you to test your scores via powerful spam filters to optimize your deliverability <strong>before<\/strong> sending your bulk emails.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Email validation<\/strong>: SendGrid\u2019s email validation API allows you to test your contact list for mistyped, inactive, or invalid emails. This helps you further improve your delivery rates by emailing to only <strong>verified<\/strong> email addresses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dedicated IP<\/strong>: The biggest downside of a shared IP address is that your sender reputation can be impacted by spammers using the same IP address. SendGrid allows you to use a dedicated IP address to avoid this issue.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>2. Transactional Email Support<\/h3>\n<p>SendGrid also allows you to set up a transactional email easily for your online products or eCommerce sites.<\/p>\n<p><em>What is a transactional email?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>A transactional email is an automated email sent from a business to a customer. They are triggered by certain predetermined events \u2014 such as making a transaction.<\/p>\n<p>Most transactional mail contains information about:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Account confirmation and registration.<\/li>\n<li>Payment confirmation and receipts.<\/li>\n<li>Updates to the user\u2019s account, such as password resets or changes to personal details.<\/li>\n<li>Delivery and shipping notifications, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As transactional mail is an email <strong>response<\/strong> to an action, customers usually <strong>expect<\/strong> these automated emails. This ensures that they usually have very <strong>high open rates<\/strong> \u2014 especially when compared to cold emails.<br \/>\n<a id=\"create\"><\/a><br \/>\nSendGrid allows you to automate your own transactional email easily via SendGrid\u2019s API or SMTP service.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Built-In Email Templates and Editor<\/h3>\n<p>With SendGrid, you have a variety of options when it comes to creating your promotional emails.<\/p>\n<p>For a quick and easy solution, you can use SendGrid\u2019s <strong>built-in email template<\/strong> <strong>library<\/strong> to begin writing your draft. However, remember that personalizing emails for each recipient isn\u2019t just helpful, but <strong>essential<\/strong> to building better customer relationships.<\/p>\n<p>If you prefer to build your emails from scratch, SendGrid offers an <strong>HTML editor<\/strong>, as well as a <strong>drag and drop editor<\/strong> to suit your needs.<\/p>\n<p>These editors allow you to manage various details regarding your emails or email campaigns, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Intended audiences<\/li>\n<li>A\/B testing<\/li>\n<li>The content and media included in the email<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>4. Robust Reporting<\/h3>\n<p><em>How do you know how well your emails are performing?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Traditionally, the only way to tell how well an email campaign performs is through actual replies and conversions. However, these metrics aren\u2019t enough to give you a detailed understanding of your email performance.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, an SMTP provider like SendGrid allows you to track your email performance <strong>real-time<\/strong> across several key metrics, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Emails delivered<\/li>\n<li>Unique opens and clicks<\/li>\n<li>Bounce rate and spam reports<\/li>\n<li>Unsubscribes<\/li>\n<li>And more<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This data helps you make sense of your marketing email statistics and improve your email marketing efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, choosing the SendGrid platform allows you to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Analyze your prospects with detailed audience insights.<\/li>\n<li>Compare mailbox providers via its analytics.<\/li>\n<li>Export your data as a CSV file.<\/li>\n<li>Create custom reports through data exports.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>5. Powerful Integrations and API<\/h3>\n<p>For <strong>maximum<\/strong> convenience, your SMTP service provider and app should be able to connect to the other computer software you use. This helps you remain productive <strong>across<\/strong> apps.<\/p>\n<p>And the SendGrid platform supports tons of integrations with popular tools to help you centralize your marketing efforts.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the supported tools for SendGrid integration include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Zapier<\/li>\n<li>Airtable<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/alexkonrad\/2019\/02\/01\/why-twilio-acquired-sendgrid\/#197936b7624b\">Twilio<\/a> for SMS marketing<\/li>\n<li>Google Cloud Platform<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can use the SendGrid integration to transfer data across various tools, set up reminders, automate simple email tasks, and more.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"pricing\"><\/a>Additionally, SendGrid\u2019s robust SMTP API and web API allow you to set up <strong>custom integrations<\/strong> easily with an API key. This will help you service various business needs, from list management to email sending.<\/p>\n<h2>SendGrid Pricing<\/h2>\n<p>There are two plans listed on the SendGrid website (sendgrid.com): the Email API Plans and the Email Marketing plans.<\/p>\n<h3>Is SendGrid Free?<\/h3>\n<p>SendGrid provides a free Email API and a free Email Marketing plan that support a limited number of features.

let\u2019s take a look at some areas where SendGrid falls behind.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Basic Plans Lack Key Features<\/h3>\n<p>SendGrid features flexible pricing plans over several tiers that offer a variety of features. However, the Free and Basic plans of this SMTP provider <strong>lack several essential features<\/strong> for most businesses.<\/p>\n<p>For example, these plans do not support:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Marketing automation for more than 6,000 emails per month.<\/li>\n<li>Multiple-user access and sub-users.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For these, you need to go for the Advanced plan, which starts at $60\/month and increases in price according to the number of emails or contacts you need.

Its powerful features are used by employees from companies like Linkedin, Google, Uber, and Twitter.<\/p>\n<p><em>But GMass isn\u2019t just for huge firms or social media giants!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Individuals, a startup, or even a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmass.co\/blog\/church-email\/\">church<\/a> can use GMass to send email campaigns easily to their audiences.<\/p>\n<p>GMass helps you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Send massive email campaigns via SendGrid from <strong>within<\/strong> Gmail.<\/li>\n<li>Automatically personalize each marketing campaign.<\/li>\n<li>Schedule emails and follow-ups with ease.<\/li>\n<li>Analyze your performance via powerful reports.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>The best part?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s super easy to get started using GMass.<\/p>\n<p>Just <a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/gmass-powerful-mail-merge\/ehomdgjhgmbidokdgicgmdiedadncbgf\">download the Chrome extension<\/a> to send your marketing campaign easily!<\/p>\n<h3>How Does GMass Differ from SendGrid?<\/h3>\n<p>GMass is an <strong>email outreach tool<\/strong> that works with Gmail \u2014 your email service provider \u2014\u00a0to enhance your email marketing processes. GMass <strong>is not<\/strong> an SMTP service, which means that it can\u2019t send your emails by itself.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, SendGrid is an <strong>SMTP service with email marketing features<\/strong>. SendGrid helps you send emails without an email service provider. As regular email service providers like Gmail have low daily sending limits (500-2,000 emails\/day), using an SMTP service like SendGrid enables you to send <strong>bulk emails<\/strong> that surpass this limit.<\/p>\n<h3>How GMass Works with SendGrid<\/h3>\n<p>Most email outreach tools are limited by the server sending limits of the email providers. For example, in Gmail, it\u2019s 500 emails\/day for a free account and 2,000 emails\/day for G Suite accounts.<\/p>\n<p><em>However, this isn\u2019t the case with GMass.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>GMass can integrate with your SendGrid account to bypass the Gmail mail server sending limit and send <strong>unlimited emails<\/strong> via the SendGrid SMTP server.<\/p>\n<p>This way, GMass allows you to <strong>combine<\/strong> the mass emailing capabilities and high deliverability of the SendGrid server with the ease of use and familiarity of the Gmail interface.<\/p>\n<p><em>Worried that setting up GMass with your SendGrid account is extremely complex?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Luckily, the process is actually super easy.<\/p>\n<p>All you need to do is tweak some settings in your SendGrid account to allow GMass to send your emails via the SMTP server, verify your <strong>MAIL-FROM<\/strong> address and send a single email to <strong>configure<\/strong> GMass.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gmass.co\/blog\/smtp\/#setup\">Click here<\/a> for a detailed step-by-step guide to take you through this process.<\/p>\n<h3>How GMass Can Overcome SendGrid Drawbacks<\/h3>\n<p>Using GMass allows you to overcome the main drawbacks of SendGrid in an easy and affordable manner.<\/p>\n<h4>GMass Provides Key Features That Basic SendGrid Plans Lack<\/h4>\n<p>Through GMass, you can easily set up follow-up, scheduling, and email automation for as many emails as you want. Additionally, unlike SendGrid, GMass offers <strong>Team<\/strong> plans that support unlimited emails!<\/p>\n<p>This lets <strong>multiple<\/strong> marketers from your marketing team access your email marketing tool and take advantage of the SendGrid SMTP relay and MTA (Mail Transfer Agent) with the Basic SendGrid plan.<\/p>\n<h4>GMass Lets You Use SendGrid with the User-Friendly Gmail Interface<\/h4>\n<p>By working <strong>within your Gmail account<\/strong>, GMass further helps you bypass the complexity of the SendGrid user interface.
