Look elsewhere if
- Not for you if you want to try it before paying, as there's no free plan or trial
- Pricey if your team sends from lots of addresses, as each one needs its own warm-up
- Skip it if you need list cleaning, or DMARC managed rather than checked
- Tight if a campaign is due soon, as MailReach advises 14 days of warm-up first and keeping it running between sends
- Pricey if you pay monthly, at $25 a mailbox against $20 billed yearly
Pick Warmbly if
- Fits if you send cold email from several mailboxes and want warmup built in
- Works for teams happy to self-host and read the source
Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you want a free plan, as there is only a 14-day trial

- Pricey if you need roles and an audit log, which start at Business, $263 a month
- Watch out: self-hosted warmup only uses the mailboxes you connect, not the shared pool
- Watch out: Agency plans pool sends across clients, and top-up packs cost extra

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.
