Best Value Out There
Pros
The software is easy to use and I can prepare a "mailing" fairly quickly with templates that I've set up for various types of occasions. The price is very reasonable and the reports are fantastic. I'm able to reach my target markets better when I download the reports and track who opens and "clicks" through my messages.
Cons
Everything is great. I wish that there could be more templates for the emails to give me more "looks" when I do "mailings"
One of the best news letter service
Overall they are offering good services in the budget if you want to build and send a newsletter weekly.
Pros
Easy to use newsletter builder included, Can test the service a free plan including 6000 mails per month. Can be used as a mail delivery service such as an SMTP.
Cons
Required monthly subscription if you are sending more than 6000 emails per month. Somehow costly as compared to other services.
A solid option for managing email lists.
Pros
Ease of use
A plethora of features
Messages arrive to inbox (not spam)
Good analytics
Overall value is good
Cons
Mailjet limits your sending rate at first
Some features could be more customizable (e.g. subscriber forms/widgets)
Can be a bit complicated to add sender addresses and verify URLs
Great service at reasonable prices
The problem of spam definitively solved, integration in the servers very fast, excellent
Pros
I solved the spam problem without large configurations, thanks to their fully qualified servers. It was what I needed
Cons
I would love to have the option to pay for the service annually and not only monthly, obviously prepaid
Steer clear if you're looking to send a large volume of emails
Overall, if you want to send a little bit of email with webhooks and api calls, this will work. If you're sending large scale campaigns, it could ruin your email list size because of the lack of functionality around reengagement campaign parameters.
Pros
The sales people and customer support were very nice. If you were looking to use the free tier or send low volume of emails then MailJet will do the job (ie: in place of MailChimp) however, if you're looking at this v's constantcontact or sendgrid, selligent etc then I would definitely not go with MailJet.
Cons
MailJet do not want clients to use them as a databasing tool which means, if you have a segment of users who are engaged and opened 20 times in the last 30 days and you want to get those email addresses to push into facebook to find a look alike audience...you can't. MailJet won't let you get that data.
They also blacklist your softbouncing emails in the background and limit the characters in subject lines.
Response from Mailjet
Hi - thanks for your feedback. Please feel free to send us an email to [email protected] and we'd be happy to look into your account. In the meantime, we apologize for any inconvenience. Our platform and API is designed to handle higher volumes and as long as our Sending Policy is adhered to, we will be able to address any of your issues. Thanks again, the Mailjet team.
Transactional / Triggered emails are so easy to setup
Overall, it has been a positive experience. As a startup company, we initially went with a competitor and hit many roadblocks, so we wound up with MailJet and it has been smooth sailing.
Pros
So far, I have mostly only used the transactional emails. Our developer found this solution and it integrated with our platfrom through the API very smooth. My role was to create and design the email templates. It was very intuitive to use and has a vast feature set. I quickly setup 15+ custom templates within a few hours. The developer had them connected and running within a couple days.
Cons
The reporting is a bit confusing compared to other email tools I have used. When I had to go and find if someone was triggered a transactional email and it wasn't easy to find the information I needed.
Mailjet for hosting company
We are using mailjet services for years, we are hosting company so we send big ammounts of mails, before we started using mailjet, our mails went to spam, and we have been oftenly listed in spamhaus dbl, but since using mailjet, we do not have that problem, and our mail score is now good.
Pros
Its easy to use, simple, and cheap for ammount of mail they offer.
Cons
I couldnt find option to read sent mail (to see mail content).
Their Customer Service is the worst
The problem I have with Mailjet is that I sent them $50 from Paypal, which they accept. It never appeared on my account and they say they never received it, despite my giving them all of the transaction details. They refuse to acknowledge the payment or give me a refund. Their customer service was slow, demeaning, and utterly useless. How does the "accounting team" not find a transaction after giving them every last detail of the transaction? I wonder if they are actually malicious?
Pros
Relatively easy to set up and use, Cheap
Cons
Strictly transactional and they shut down my account immediately (which is fine as I am new to this, but they should have made that clearer as I signed up), horrible customer service
Response from Mailjet
Hello, we understand your frustration and we are here to help. Looking into your account further, it is clear that we never received the $50 deposit you are referencing. It should be possible for you to request a charge back from PayPal, and if you need our support confirming this error, please let us know in the support ticket. Again, we apologize for any delay and we want to help with fixing the situation. Best, the Mailjet team.
positive experience
deliverability for your emails
Pros
it works! even free version is full of features needed by a small online business to run smoothly the every day e-mail needs.
Cons
the user interface can be a little bit better, but this is not so important, after all the perfect software does not exist
Have used Mailjet since 2011 across multiple businesses and clients.
Pros
Easy to set up and configure for multiple delivery platforms, and consistently reliable. Excellent delivery rates.
Cons
Reporting can be a little out of sync sometimes, a minor issue in the scheme of things. Reporting granularity could be better, i.e. more detail
Robust emailing system
We use Mailjet as our main email system for our application TIMEKO (www.timeko.net) to send emails for the app operations (registration, forgot password, send messages by email channel etc..). Mailjet guarantee a good delivery and easy tracking real-time graphics. The API is easy to use.
LINKAVIE provides TIMEKO Web and mobile App, a new multi-channel messaging system by Yes or No to identify quickly a competent person you need within your community
Pros
Mailjet is quite fair in price, good technically, good API, good and easy to use admin interface.
Cons
Support only by email.
Mailjet
Very good
Pros
Nice company to do business with
Very good and fast service.
Cons
If you have payment issues, there system automatics downgrade without any warning.
So the next time, your discounts are gone.
Good
I’ve been forced to use such company due to running a google cloud instance that doesn’t allow outbound SMTP. Thankfully, Mailjet offer a free plan which is enough to get you up and running.
I find the website easy to navigate. It checks DKIM & DMARC status and provides easy instructions on how to correct such records.
I’ve had to use support which was prompt and helpful considering I’m on a free plan and have been for a year or so.
I’ve not used any of the e-mail marketing functions so I’m unable to comment on those services but it certainly serves for me as a message relay service and I’m not sure what more it could offer.
Pros
Free plan. Intuative interface. DKIM / DMARC Recording checking.
Cons
Some of messages relayed appear in the 'forum' tabs of gmail but that's possibly due to misconfiguraiton on my part somehwere.
Mailjet Is my Favorite
Pros
I love using Mailjet and have recommended my clients use it as well. It is a great way to send SMTP email, especially since the hosting providers offer such a lack luster approach to doing this.
Cons
Nothing, I seriously have no issues with this product.
I'm using Mailjet to send newsletters once a week, to more than 15 000 receivers per month.
Pros
Mailjet provides a lot of interessant statistics. It gives us an overview of how our messages are treated.
Cons
Mailjet should warn us when some services are suddenly blocked... Even if it's caused by our credit card payment. How can I notice that there is something wrong if I don't get any warning ?
Neat, clean and trouble free.
Easier marketing to a potentially large number of potential customers.
Pros
The interface is good, which means it's easy to get started. The choice of templates lets you send better-looking mailers. The reporting is excellent, allowing you to drill down into the response data and see where you have been most successful. The 200 free per day is generous, given that you can schedule five different mailers to a total of 1000 people over a working week. The scheduling tool allows your message to arrive at the most opportune time.
Cons
Some of the setup procedures are a bit clunky, particularly reusing previous text and layouts. I suppose the five point certification statement about opt-in is a necessary evil. In the reporting it would be useful to know more about the nature of the bounces, or even the detail of the message.
An easy to use platform for Email marketing
Overall Mailjet is fine for sending marketing newsletters and targeted campaigns if you have a large customer database and you do not want to pay extra money for that. I can say nothing about sending transactional emails through Mailjet, as I have not tried this feature yet.
Pros
My experience with Mailjet is rather positive. I've tried some other mass mailing platforms and I can say that Mailjet offers good value for money. Mailjet is quite easy to set up, template design tool gives you everything you need to create a nice-looking newsletter. The analytics gives you necessary insights into your marketing campaign. The support team was always quite responsive to my claims and willing to help.
Cons
The email sending limitation when you first start sending out mailers with Mailjet is one reason to be annoyed when you have a large customer database. It is not always easy to find out the reason why an email is blocked by Mailjet. However, for me the most annoying thing is that you may get kicked out of the system quite often for no particular reason in the middle of designing or manually sending out mailers.
Mailjet is where it's at!
Pros
Mailjet is an excellent email marketing solution no matter your business size. It's user friendly interface, and ease of use makes it the perfect platform for those who don't have the time to waste fiddling around with a time consuming, and cumbersome process to create a professional looking, and eye catching email.
Cons
Mailjet really doesn't have any cons per se. However, I do think that they could make some of the backend features like SMTP and API a bit more user friendly, and consumer accessible.
Great Email Marketing Solution
Great value and features! Easy-to-use and advanced features aren't limited to an enterprise account like some other solutions / services are.
Pros

Would like to see credits carry over from month to month.
Helps drive sales.
Pros
Easy to use and helps drive sales numbers. We can reach multiple leads with one campaign saving time and money.

Limited formatting when trying to create a new campaign. If there were more options on formats it would be helpful.
