Which one is for you
Pick EasyDMARC if
- Fits if you're moving a domain to an enforced DMARC policy
- Works for small businesses with one or two sending domains that want SPF, DKIM and BIMI records in one place
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you run more than 4 domains, as Premium stops at 4 and bigger plans are quoted by sales
- Skip it if you want an API, SSO or audit logs without an Enterprise contract
- Not for you if you need list cleaning or placement tests on a priced plan, as they start on a custom tier, and there's no warm-up
- Watch out: there's no free plan, and Plus rises with volume, to $59.99 a month at 500,000 emails billed yearly
- Pricey if you pay monthly, at $44.99 for Plus against $35.99 billed yearly
Pick MxToolbox if
- Fits if you want to be told when your sending domain lands on a blacklist
- Works for teams that want DMARC, inbox placement and blacklists in one tool
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you are one person: the first paid plan is $129 a month
- Tight if you stay free, as it is weekly blacklist checks for 1 domain
- Tight if you want more domains, since both paid plans cover 5
- Watch out: managed services are not priced, and the page gives no billing basis

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.
