How we grade them
| 2.2GPAdmarcianFair | 2.2GPAGlockAppsFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | BBasic is $19.99 a month billed yearly ($24 monthly) for 2 domains and 100,000 messages. That's the cheapest DMARC price among its listed rivals: EasyDMARC charges $35.99 for the same 2 domains and 100,000 emails, and GlockApps' Essential is $59. | CEssential is $59 a month billed yearly ($85 monthly) for 30 spam tests and 50,000 DMARC messages a month. For DMARC alone that's above its listed rivals dmarcian ($19.99) and EasyDMARC ($35.99), but neither runs placement tests on its priced plans. |
| Free plan and trial | CA free Personal plan, but only for non-business domains, and it's audited. Businesses get a 30-day trial with no card instead, longer than most trials here. | BA real free plan with no card: 10,000 DMARC messages a month for unlimited domains, 5 uptime monitors, 1 IP reputation monitor and 2 spam tests. A small domain can live on the DMARC side; the 2 tests are just a taste. |
| Features | CIt does the DMARC job fully: reports that name each sending service, SPF, DKIM and BIMI tools, and alerts and forensic reports on paid plans. That's a smaller job, though: no list cleaning, warm-up or placement tests. | CPlacement tests are thorough: inbox, spam or tab by provider, SpamAssassin scores, authentication checks and 50+ blocklists, with DMARC reports for unlimited domains. But it doesn't clean lists or warm up inboxes; it tests and monitors only. |
| Ease of use | CNo App Store rating on record. You add a DNS record before reports arrive, and getting a domain to a reject policy takes some reading, though deployment help is on offer. | CNo App Store rating on record. A test is simple, as you send your email to its seed list, but DMARC needs a DNS record first, and the reports take some know-how to act on. |
| Platforms and integrations | CWeb only, with no integrations on record; API access and single sign-on come only with Enterprise, at $499 a month billed yearly. | CWeb only, with Google Postmaster Tools as the one connection listed, plus an API and white-label reports. No phone or desktop app. |
| Best for | DMARC for a couple of domains on a budget | seeing where a campaign lands before it goes |

Worth knowing

- Prices exclude tax, and the tool does not verify lists, warm up inboxes or test placement.
GlockApps
- Annual plans list yearly allowances (Essential: 360 spam tests and 600,000 DMARC messages a year) rather than monthly ones.
- Annual billing saves about 30%, and monthly prices are much higher: Essential is $85 against $59.
