Mailgun

Avantages

La simplicité d'utilisation et d'installation de l'API. La qualité du support client.

Inconvénients

Coûts assez élevés. Pas disponible en français.

Avantages

A clean interface is a plus, but functionality is still limited compared to Mandrill. However, the core functionality—transactional emails—works very well and seamlessly.

Inconvénients

Very basic interface and limited options compare to competition.

Avantages

Scalability: Mailgun is highly scalable.
Deliverability: Very good email deliverability rates.
Support: The support is very responsive with available documentation and 24/7 customer service.

Inconvénients

Pricing is bit more expensive compared to other tools.

Avantages

The best thing about mailgun is that you move away from it very easily. Just close your account and don't look back

Inconvénients

I didn't like how mailgun disable our account (with over 25 active applications/domains and hundreds of users) and didn't tell use why for over 3 days.

Avantages

Mailgun is one of those tools that simply works. As someone who uses it regularly, I appreciate its reliability and ease of integration, especially with WordPress. Setting it up is straightforward, and once configured, it takes care of email delivery without needing constant attention or troubleshooting.

One of the standout aspects is how much you get with the basic plan. Features like email tracking, analytics, and solid deliverability are included, which is often more than enough for smaller projects or businesses. It’s refreshing to see such a feature-rich offering without having to upgrade right away.

I also love how well Mailgun handles what it promises—emails are delivered quickly and consistently, which is crucial for ensuring important communication doesn’t end up in spam folders.

You also have a pretty good overall statistic.

For anyone looking for a no-fuss email solution with great value in its entry-level plan, Mailgun is a fantastic option.

Inconvénients

Some settings are difficult to find, making configuration a bit frustrating at times. Additionally, the service region selection defaults back to the US, which I always forget to change.

These minor inconveniences don’t overshadow its overall performance, but they’re worth noting for users who value a seamless experience. A more intuitive settings layout and a persistent region selection would make Mailgun even better.

Avantages

I use Mailgun with High Level And the best part is the easy way to sync them both

Inconvénients

Mail gun is more expensive than Orberá mail services

Being one of the most popular company, there is lots of information around the web on how-to-dos.

Easy integration with wordpress plugins.

Inconvénients

If you don't have a dedicated IP, your reputation will be influenced by other users. So if someone is using Mailgun abusively and is using the same IP to send emails you may get some problems.

If logs can be searchable by email content that would be great

The functionalities are simple and reliable, stable and exactly what you expect.

Avantages

It was free with a low volume of emails, which was perfect for just starting out as a business. The interface was pretty straightforward, and it easily integrated with my WordPress website.

Inconvénients

I don't remember it having features likes what gmail does (sheets, word, etc.). Otherwise, it's a great product.

Avantages

It seems relatively easy to use. I wanted to use them because they are a cheaper alternative to use on a WordPress site.

Inconvénients

I had some issues with the initial setup and the support team was not that supportive. I quickly disregarded this software as I didn't want to waste much time. It was already a week and the slow responses from support didn't help. Maybe I got impatient and switched too quickly. The software looks good, it's just that I needed to implement something quicker

Avantages

Mailgun is very easy to configure and use, even in free subscription, you can use a lot of features and can send up to 10,000 emails that makes it very great.

Inconvénients

The price is really costly, but you can still stick to the free plan and maximize it.

Avantages

We've been using mailgun since few years and it's one of our most used and essential software for out business. It seamlessly integrate with any system and provides fast and accurate email delivery solution. Since we've been using mailgun it's very rare that email sent from our system goes to spam folder. Also, with their dedicated IP option email delivery and white listing is even more easier.

Inconvénients

Mailgun email tracking feature is not that accurate and also I personally found and reported bugs into the system UX.

Avantages

Not worth my time to post any pros with their software. Same functionality as competitors.

Inconvénients

Our email has been down this whole morning. No explanation or response from Mailgun.

After many unsuccessful attempts to log in to our Mailgun account, we got a popup saying "We are migrating some systems" -- no warning of this in beforehand either.

Email is a very critical part of our business. We assumed Mailgun would be a reliable partner — apparently not.

Please stay away from Mailgun. I can’t recommend this to anyone having a serious business. There are more reliable and cheaper alternatives out there.

Avantages

Mailgun ensures that emails from your website actually make it to their destination. With their free tier covering the first 10,000 emails, it's a free solution to a prominent issue: emails getting stuck in email filters or not making it at all. Mailgun is easy to sign up for and easy to integrate into your site, especially if you are using WordPress. Absolutely love the mail logs too - that's come in quite handy on many an occasion.

Inconvénients

As a web developer, I understand the need and value of Mailgun. It can be difficult for new users to understand this though.

Avantages

Mailgun offers 10,000 free emails a month, which is much higher than a lot of the competing services in this category.
The web interface is clean and provides you with the information you need right on the landing page.
Integrates easy with many services and plugins exist for many platforms (eg Wordpress).
API is well documented.

Inconvénients

While the Free tier of 10,000 emails a month is class leading, when you begin entering the paid tiers there are much cheaper alternatives available.
Email validation service is pricey for what it is.

Avantages

I'm using mailgun for transnational emails and I'm very happy I never encountered any problem, the interface is very good and simple, I like the fact we can setup multiple domains in the same account. All in all it's the best!

Inconvénients

Mailgun didn't notify me when my account was suspended for a verification and in that time I lost many emails that may have resulted in contracts if they were delivered! You need to check you account regularly to make sure everything is OK!

Avantages

Mailgun has a really easy to implement API (for devs) with a bunch of different languages support like curl, PHP, Java, etc. - Within minutes, we were running the PHP API on our app, and sending out transactional emails.

Also good for devs: the extremely in-depth official docs provided by Mailgun. Along with case examples, and demos, you'll be ready to go, even if you're a bit less experienced with implementing an API of this sort.

One of my favourite features is the email validation API, which easily integrates into your forms via jQuery, and uses the Mailgun API to validate email inputs as users type their email. We use it on all of our forms now!

Inconvénients

It's worth noting that everything that operates through Mailgun is through API, unlike something like SendGrid which offers a full dashboard alongside their API. This may or may not be an issue for some people.

Avantages

We liked the simplicity and set it and forget it nature of the product. We never really ever had to go in and perform maintenance since when we first set up the service on our app a few years back.

Inconvénients

We recently had an issue of emails not getting sent out that was due to a different service we had integrated with mailgun. Because of this issue, we had wondered if we were able to go back in the mailgun logs to see the old emails. Unfortunately, the logs only go back to about 2 months or so which meant we had just lost all the old data. It would have been nice if there was some option to perform automated backups of everything or automated exports after the 2 months period.
