What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Sendgrid for 10 years. It was easy to set up and "just worked".
What do you dislike about the product?
2 months ago my account was flagged because supposedly the API keys were leaked. I rotated the API keys and after a couple of days I got access to the account back.
On a Saturday the account was flagged again. The "proof" they sent me was an email that has been sent thousands of times. They told me to do a root cause analysis. This included inane questions like when I noticed the "intrusion". 3 days of different people speaking only in text blocks followed. The last person told me that I was a "repeat offender" and wouldn't get my account back.
I'm just grateful that this happened before I had to set up a payment because the free plan had almost ended.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used SendGrid to sent emails from a desktop application informing the user when certain tasks in the app were finished. I also used SendGrid in a form on my website to create tickets in the ticket system.

Very disappointing experience

Review from a verified AWS customer
I subscribed to the service via AWS Marketplace, but I couldn’t access my account at all. The login system kept asking for a password that I was never given, and even after reaching out to support, there was no clear guidance or resolution.
The support team responded extremely slowly, and despite the urgency of the issue — which directly impacted my ability to send emails — there was no proper follow-up or explanation on how or when they would resolve the problem.
Very disappointing experience. I expected much better support, especially for a paid service.

What do you like best about the product?
The API itself works fine. The UI is relatively easy to navigate. It does everything you'd need an email API to do. As long as you don't mind constantly being suspended for false flags and getting support at least 3 business days later every time.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is zero support when the system automatically flags you for "unusual" activity. We have a 99% reputation according to SendGrid with 0 spam reports and 0 unsubscribes. Our app traffic tends to surge on one day each week according which causes our emails to surge on that day as well. We have been with SendGrid for about 3 months and have now been suspended 4 times and each time they say it was a false suspension. But there is no response for DAYS each time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Outsourcing our SMTP infrastructure. Giving insights into our email traffic to our support staff.
