Overview
SendPulse and EmailOctopus take opposite approaches to email marketing. For our take on each, see our SendPulse comparison and EmailOctopus comparison.
EmailOctopus's Simplicity
EmailOctopus does email marketing and does it simply. No chatbots, no CRM, no feature bloat. Just send emails, grow your list, automate basics. At $36/month for 10k subscribers, it's nearly 3x cheaper than SendPulse. Sometimes less is more.
SendPulse's Feature Advantage
SendPulse packs in chatbots for five platforms, web push, SMS, CRM, and advanced automation. If you need those channels, SendPulse delivers them at a reasonable price. But if you're only sending email, you're paying for features you won't use.
The Sequenzy Alternative
For SaaS founders who want more than basic email but don't need chatbots, Sequenzy combines transactional email and marketing campaigns with Stripe integration at $49/month.
