Overview
Moosend and GetResponse position themselves differently. Moosend is a focused, affordable email marketing platform. GetResponse is an all-in-one marketing solution with email, webinars, landing pages, and conversion funnels.
The $27/month price difference reflects different product philosophies, not just different price points.
The All-in-One Factor
GetResponse includes tools that Moosend does not have:
- Webinars: Built-in webinar hosting with registration and follow-up automation
- Conversion funnels: Complete sales funnels from opt-in to purchase
- Website builder: Create a basic website without separate tools
- Live chat: Engage visitors directly on your site
If you would otherwise pay for separate webinar or funnel software, GetResponse's bundle makes economic sense.
Pricing Breakdown
Moosend costs $32/month for 10,000 subscribers. GetResponse costs $59/month for their Email Marketing plan.
Both include unlimited email sends. The $27/month difference is for GetResponse's additional marketing tools.
If you only need email marketing, Moosend saves $324/year. If you will use webinars or funnels, GetResponse may consolidate your tool stack.
Webinars: GetResponse's Unique Feature
GetResponse is one of the few email platforms with built-in webinar hosting. This includes:
- Registration pages
- Screen sharing and presentations
- Polls and Q&A
- Automated follow-up sequences
For businesses where webinars are a key marketing channel, GetResponse eliminates the need for Zoom or separate webinar software.
Moosend has no webinar functionality.
Email Features Comparison
GetResponse has more email templates (200+ vs 75+) and includes GPT-powered AI email generation. Both have solid drag-and-drop editors and A/B testing.
For core email marketing, both are capable. GetResponse has a slight edge in features, but Moosend handles the basics well.
Automation
GetResponse has more pre-built automation templates (40+ vs 18+) and better behavioral targeting. It also has stronger e-commerce automation for online stores.
Moosend's automation is solid for the price but less sophisticated. For complex, multi-step automation, GetResponse is more capable.
The Decision
Choose Moosend when: Budget matters most, you only need email marketing, and webinars or funnels are not part of your strategy.
Choose GetResponse when: You want an all-in-one marketing platform, run webinars, or need conversion funnels. The extra cost may be offset by eliminating other tools.
For SaaS Companies
Neither Moosend nor GetResponse is built for SaaS. GetResponse's webinars might help with product demos, but neither has subscription billing awareness.
Sequenzy offers Stripe integration for subscription-aware automation. At $49/month for 10k subscribers, it sits between both platforms while providing trial expiry emails, failed payment recovery, and churn prevention that matter for software businesses.
