Which one is for you
Pick dmarcian if
- Fits if you need DMARC on two business domains at $19.99 a month billed yearly
- Works for a personal, non-business domain, which the free plan covers
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you outgrow 2 domains or 1 user, as Plus jumps to $199 a month billed yearly
- Skip it if you want an API, single sign-on or Domain Discovery, which wait for Enterprise at $499 a month
- Not for you if you need list cleaning, warm-up or placement tests
- Watch out: the free plan is for non-business domains only, and an audit that finds a business domain ends the account
- Watch out: prices exclude tax, no integrations are on record, and Basic keeps only 3 months of history
Pick Dmarcly if
- Fits if you run a handful of domains and want one DMARC dashboard
- Works for agencies, since there is an MSP dashboard
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a free plan, as there is only a 14-day trial
- Tight if you want history, with 2 months on Professional and 1 year only on Enterprise
- Pricey if you need the API or SSO, both on the $199 Enterprise plan
- Watch out: going over your message quota moves you to the next plan for that month
- Watch out: only monthly prices are shown, with no annual discount stated

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
