### "Mailrelay experience"

September 1, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with Mailrelay has been very positive. The platform is easy to use, reliable, and offers all the tools we need for our email marketing campaigns. What has stood out most is the quality and responsiveness of the customer support. When we experienced an email delivery issue related to a shared sending IP, the support team reacted quickly, explained the problem clearly, and moved us to a high-reputation IP at no additional cost. Their professionalism and willingness to help have given us confidence in continuing to use Mailrelay.

Pros

What I liked most about Mailrelay was the excellent and fast customer support. They quickly identified an issue with the shared sending IP, explained the situation clearly, and moved our account to a high-reputation IP at no additional cost. Their technical assistance was professional, efficient, and very helpful.

Cons

The main issue we experienced was related to the reputation of the shared sending IP, which caused some emails to be rejected by recipient servers and generated a significant number of soft bounces. However, the support team responded quickly and took effective action to resolve the problem.

### "The best email platform I have ever used"

July 16, 2026

5.0

I discovered Mailrelay after Sendgrid decided to waste all Legacy users. I had all my websites and projects there and was desperate to find a proper platform that suits my needs (both for small projects with free subs and for bigger ones with paid but more balanced plans). Mailrelay was the perfect match to be honest. In the past year that I have been using them the deliverability, tracking and features have been really superb.

Pros

Great technology, user interface, features (they keep adding new ones every week!), amazing balance between quality/price, with proper options for free users but great incentives to move to a paid/prepaid plans. I have been using other email platforms for many years and this is by far the best one.

Cons

The only cons is not being aware of their existence before. With so much noise in social media and websites it was difficult to discover them. But I'm glad I finally made it.

### "There are better alternatives, but the free tier makes it a good choice"

February 5, 2019

3.0

The ability to send email marketing campaigns with 0 budget was the main point of using Mailrelay. This is the main reason why I would recommend Mailrelay.

Pros

Mailrelay's free tier is so high, that it's likely that you won't paid for the service until you really grow up - and even then, its pricing is really cheap. Also, it has a ton of learning material and their support service is helpful. Watch out for their blog and their onboarding emails, they deliver a lot of useful tips and tricks. What I like the most about their blog, is that they don't only focus on giving advice on email marketing topics, they also cover digital marketing in general. Speaking more about the app, I think it's important to remark an interesting technology that they have: some time ago, they implemented "Smart Delivery", a feature that sends the emails first to the most active customers, making sure that your IP reputation is the highest possible.

Cons

Features and design-wise, their competitors are far more advanced. It's UI/UX is really old, and makes navigation a bit hard. And the automation features are quite limited compared on other big players on the market. But I have heard that they are working on this, so we probably will have more advanced marketing features soon.

### "Mailrelay is the best option for freelances and small companies"

July 27, 2026

5.0

Pros

The free tier is big enough to experiment and it covers almost all my needs: automations, WordPress integration, etc.

Cons

Sometimes is a bit tricky and the interface is not as responsive as I'd like. I've experienced some issues when I've used it from my cell

Reason for choosing Mailrelay

The Mailrelay's free tier capacity is bigger than any other

### "A Professional, Reliable, and Powerful Email Marketing Platform"

July 16, 2026

5.0

My overall experience has been excellent. Mailrelay has been reliable, fast, and easy to use from day one. Every feature I needed was available, and I never felt limited by the platform. It has made managing email campaigns much easier, and I would confidently recommend it to anyone looking for a professional email marketing solution.

Pros

Mailrelay is simple, professional, and surprisingly powerful. The interface is easy to understand, yet it includes all the features I need for email marketing. Setup was quick, performance is reliable, and it offers excellent value for both beginners and experienced users.

Cons

Honestly, I haven’t found any significant drawbacks so far. It covers everything I need, works reliably, and the interface is clean and intuitive. If I had to mention something, I would only like to see even more advanced automation templates in future updates.

### "Excellent support and great pricing"

August 11, 2026

5.0

Pros

Excellent support, and the affordable pricing, whenever we encountered an issue with their system, their support was keen enough to help us through and resolve it for us and apart from that their pricing is unmatched at the moment.

Cons

Apparantly it's a new platform and they are constantly improving, some features such as contact import has the potential to improve.

### "The Perfect Partner for Your Email Marketing"

August 19, 2026

5.0

Overall, Mailrelay is easy to use, and their support team resolves any issues quickly. The pricing is also reasonable.

Pros

The templates are easy to use and make creating email campaigns quick and simple. I also appreciate how easy it is to contact Mailrelay’s support team whenever I need help.

Cons

I haven’t found any significant drawbacks so far. The platform meets my needs, is easy to use, and the support team has always been helpful whenever I have had a question or issue.

### "Very good experience"

August 21, 2026

5.0

Very good experience with them, once I set up everything I could start sending emails to my audience. 100% recommended.

Pros

The support that they focus to solve your problems with the platform and that I can send emails with easyness. The UI I like it.

Cons

Maybe that I can't customize more the landing page, and that's all in fact. Nothing else to be honest.

### "Useful email templates for newsletters"

July 20, 2026

4.0

It's a good platform to give your content a modern look with simple means.

Pros

Our teem chose Mailrelay because of its simplicity and ease of use. So far, this program meets our modest requirements well – once a month we send out a newsletter to our mailing list members (a short information about upcoming events, when and what is planned). We find Mailrelay's ability to add links to a specific section of our website (tour descriptions, calendar, or ticket purchase) very useful.

Cons

The issue we had to deal with – writing dates in the text – when publishing Mailrelay turns this "number row" into an active link. That's why we write the names of the months in words.

### "Cheap, but not great Email campaign service"

August 10, 2017

2.0

Pros

It is cheaper than Mailchimp, and as it is an Spanish company, most of the software was already translated in spanish.

Cons

UX and user interface are poorly designed and difficult to use. Also our spam ratio grew a bit when using the service. And, ironically, we were constantly sent not email marketing newsletters from the company, which were not that useful.

Review Source

Response from Mailrelay

August 10, 2017

Hi Luis! Your account doesn't have some necessary technical configurations implemented, as for example SPF. That would explain the increased SPAM ratio, as those configurations are really required when working with email marketing. Please contact our support team which will be very happy to help. Regards, Mailrelay team.

### "Effective Email Marketing"

September 27, 2016

5.0

This is an amazing piece of software. The software appears to have been developed with thoughtful consideration of security features and resource demands. It's light weight and quite flexible in deployment options. Creating an email marketing template with Mailrelay is fairly easy. Mailrelay uses a WYSIWYG template to create newsletters. The actual newsletter is created in an HTML editor. You can either use an existing template or create a new one, using custom HTML code.

Pros

Great and helpful software. I will recommend it to my colleagues sysadmins. Great solution if you have a huge amount of SMTP requests from different servers and pcs in your company to the same SMTP server on the web. Very easy to configure, so useful, nice application!

Cons

Need upgrade adds resend the previously sent campaign with customized criteria.

### "Mailrelay is my favorite email marketing software"

September 27, 2016

5.0

I have been using it for several years, easy to use, great templates which save me a lot of designing time. Just have to follow them on tweeter, facebook and G+ and you'll get a lot of contacts and emails to send monthly.

Pros

Organization, easy to use and administer

Cons

I'm not an html expert, and sometimes when I import an email from other source like Outlook, some code appears in the mailrelay campaign (not in the edit mode but in the final email send). It's kind of hard to get ride of it.

### "Very good option for mailing"

February 23, 2018

4.0

This service has allowed us to send emails to several clients and they have been totally satisfactory.

Pros

It is a software for sending emails with a very cheap price and that provides an excellent service. It has a free plan that for small campaings can be more than enough. Emails sent through this tool do not carry any advertising either in the footer or anywhere else.

Cons

To be able to subscribe to this service you will require a corporate email account. You can not use free email services such as gmail or yahoo to subscribe. When I subscribed, the confirmation email took a while to arrive, however, apart from that the service works very well.

### "Good service"

October 3, 2016

5.0

Offers many features and the features are thought of in detail. User interface isn't that obvious, but there are many blog posts describing any of the situations I had to solve. Their free plan is huge and can be sufficient even for small businesses. The support is friendly and punctual and was able to help me with my requests. Mailrelay offers multilingual support, but my language isn't listed and it's not trivial to implement it. I have chosen Mailrelay as my primary e-mail sending service.

Pros

Many features Free plans Good blog articles to solve problems

Cons

Not intuitive UI Not perfect multi-language solutions

I like MailRelay because it's cheap/free, offers a real time nice support, has all the feautures I need for my business :)

Pros

cheap/for free, real time nice support, good statistics,

Cons

knowledge of html is needed, no possibility to see the statistics of one subscriber (for example which emails and how many he/she opened) as well us the list of people that never opened any mail (it would help to remove them from the list)
