What do you like best about the product?

What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using Sendgrid for years, since long before Twilio bought it. When twilio bought it, we started with bullshit, that insistence of theirs to force you to use 2FA, the "security" yes or yes and an interface that was getting more obsolete every day.
I also had my scares due to traffic peaks that I found difficult to analyze where they came from, but because of laziness I didn't change the service since I used it in dozens of places.
The last straw was when overnight (early Monday morning) they cut my service due to "malicious traffic from my endpoints", and asking me to fill out a super-exhaustive report, more than a dozen questions, to restore the service and all this, with response times to the incident of several days, meanwhile, everything stopped. That means, literaly, all my webs and services without being able to send emails.
Talking to their support, they told me that it is normal, that they had seen that one of my websites had probably been breached, and that at such a signal they would cut to the chase.
We are talking about less than a dozen emails in a week, in a contracted service of 50,000 emails per month, sometimes with peaks of 80-90k per month.
Obviously, I contracted another service, and once I got over the laziness of having to configure 22 endpoints again, I won't go back to Sendgrid even if they pay me.
The new service has a much more useful interface if any endpoint is used to send SPAM, and if so I will remove it and solve the problem.
I won't say the name of the service, it is also one of the best known, but I don't want to advertise it for free.

Keeping track of sent emails has never been easier
What do you like best about the product?
Sengrid has been such a wonderful system to use to keep track of the emails being sent out by our automatic system. The ability to check if emails bounced, have been blocked, if the emails were opened and even clicked on has been severly helpful in our efforts to educate our guests/customers about the importance of confirmation emails and accountability. Nothing negative to say about how it all works hand in hand together
What do you dislike about the product?
One small thing that really bums us about (seniors here) would be the limited dates you can use you generate emails sent to a specific email address. Would be very nice to maybe push it to 3 months if possible however other than this, Sengrid is just wonderful

What do you dislike about the product?
One aspect that could be improved is the complexity of the initial setup process. Setting up Twilio SendGrid Email API requires some technical expertise, and the documentation provided could be more beginner-friendly. Simplifying the onboarding process and providing more intuitive resources would greatly benefit users who are new to the API.
Another area where Twilio SendGrid Email API falls short is in its email template editor. While the API allows for customization, the template editor lacks advanced features and can be somewhat limited in terms of design capabilities. Enhancing the template editor with more intuitive drag-and-drop functionality and a wider range of pre-designed templates would make email creation more efficient and visually appealing.
