Which one is for you

Pick Mumara if

  • Fits if you want a cheap cloud sender or your own hosted campaign software
  • Works for resellers, as the site lists reseller packages

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if you need a clear price, since the page doesn't say which volume $5 buys
  • Tight if you send in bursts: Essential has a hard cap with no overages
  • Pricey if you want Mumara Machine, from $47 to $6,397 a month
  • Watch out: the free tier mentioned on the overview isn't on the plan page
  • Watch out: the White Labeling add-on is only described as on the way

Pick Sendy if

  • Fits if you publish to a list of tens of thousands and want to stop paying per subscriber
  • Works for agencies that run a PHP host and want to give each client a branded account with its own limits

Look elsewhere if

  • Skip it if the words PHP, MySQL and Amazon SES make you nervous, as you set them up
  • Not for you if you want to try it first, as there's no trial, only a refund
  • Tight if you run several sites, since each license covers one domain
  • Watch out: major version upgrades aren't included, and the AI add-on is $39 and installation $79
  • Too light for anyone wanting a phone app or a hosted service, as it runs only on your own server

How we grade them

2.6GPAMumaraGood2.0GPASendyFair
Value for money
BMumara ONE starts at $5 a month for 4,000 credits, under 60% of the cheapest quarter. But prices rise with contacts, the page doesn't say which volume the headline applies to, and the managed server is $47 to $6,397.
A$69 once for one domain, less than half a year of this category's middle subscription. Sending is Amazon's $1.6 per 10,000 emails, paid to Amazon. Add your own server, $79 if you want Sendy to install it, and $39 for the AI add-on.
Free plan and trial
CThe overview mentions a free tier of 100 emails a day, but the plan page shows paid plans from $5. Mumara Machine has a 14-day trial. The two pages differ.
FNothing is free and there's no trial. Sendy promises a refund if it doesn't work out, but a money-back promise isn't a trial.
Features
BNewsletters, transactional mail, dedicated IPs, bounce analysis, webhooks and self-hosted campaigns. Essential has a hard cap with no overages.
CThree editors, autoresponders on intervals or dates, rules and webhooks, segments, custom fields, live reports, automatic list cleaning and white-labeled client brands. It does newsletters fully, but it's a smaller job, and it can't send without your own Amazon SES or SMTP account.
Ease of use
CNo store rating on record. Two products with several plan ladders take working out, and the self-hosted one needs setup.
DNo App Store rating on record, and you install it yourself on a PHP and MySQL server and set up your own Amazon SES account. That's self-hosting, which puts it at a D. Sendy will install it for $79.
Platforms and integrations
BWeb with an API and Amazon SES, Mailgun, Mailjet, SendGrid and SparkPost. No apps.
BIt runs in a browser on your own server, with Amazon SES, SendGrid, Mailjet, Elastic Email, Zapier, WordPress, Magento and Joomla, plus an API. No desktop or phone app, so a B.

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.
