The key benefits of Elastic Email as a MailerLite alternative

We have been in the email business for over a decade now, and based on numerous customer opinions, we’ve concluded that a good email service platform should, first and foremost, be budget-friendly and easy to set up and use. These are things, among others, we mainly focus on when providing our services.

Unbeatable prices

We all seek the best value for our money, so when setting our pricing, we try our best to empathize with our customers' needs. When you sign up for an account, you choose your plan and contact and email limits, get charged for your actual usage, and receive notifications when reaching your plan limits.

User-friendly interface

The Elastic Email app is truly intuitive to navigate and use. Whether creating an account, sending campaigns, or analyzing statistics and reports, you'll easily find your way around our platform. Also, our app works as fast and stably as possible because we want to give you a seamless software experience with everything running smoothly.

Lead generation

Building your email list has never been easier. With our web forms and landing page builder, you can gain new, double-opted-in subscribers in a reliable and GDPR-compliant way. You may create your own design or choose from pre-designed templates, meaning no coding experience is required. You can also attract your leads with popup forms that appear on your website with a chosen time delay.

Transactional emails

Even if you mainly use your email service provider to send your marketing campaigns, we imagine you may sometimes need to send transactional emails as well. When you use our Email Marketing product, you can have access to our email delivery engine and send your transactional emails via our HTTP API or SMTP relay.

Email verification service

One of our features is an email verification service, which allows you to verify your email contacts and spot invalid and unreachable addresses. This feature allows you to verify your email addresses based on millions of emails sent every day. It eliminates spam traps and invalid addresses and identifies role emails and probable spelling mistakes. As a result, you have a clean and high-quality contact list.
