What do you like best about Mailgun?

Mailgun worked fine for us over a year Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailgun?

We suddenly started getting 301 redirection responses to API calls (sending us to a 404 page mind you).

60% of our transactional emails were lost due to this malfunction. It took Mailgun days to get back to us, but with unhelpful responses. We had to move to a new provider while suffering significant business damage. We never received a proper apology or compensation for this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very reliable. If the system says it's going to send an email, it sends it when it is supposed to. The analytics are useful to see trends about how our emails are being received and the product is always evolving to fit our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailgun?

It's a bit of a process logging in to check send reports. I'd like a daily or monthly report that identified potential errors in our app that might cause emails to go unsent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mailgun?

* No setup: Just register, and a prebuilt test domain will be available for you to use free of charge.

* 10K free emails per month! this is something I've never seen before. Most of my customers don't even need to pay for sent emails.

* Blazing fast and powerful API: Endpoint + URL = Amazingly fast response times and instant delivery, you can schedule and batch-send emails with any language/framework/etc since there is a REST API for you to use at no charge (also). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailgun?

* One of my domains got temporaly suspended for receiving a lot of fake-email sending requests. Story is that I implemented an email-based contest system and customers started registering fake addresses, naturally all of those reached mailgun and they (as a very comprehensible security feature) disabled my domain. I had to buy an external validation service to get the entries validated before hitting mailgun. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mailgun:

Just use it, you have nothing to lose. Docs are very clear and straightforward to read within. You'd be surprised about how easy is it for sure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mailgun solving and how is that benefiting you?

Made a lot (100+) email-based products and Mailgun never fails to deliver, the bounce rate is one of the lowest I seend and the domain setup is quick (once you know what you are doing). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mailgun?

Mailgun is a powerful and easy to use mailing API, we use it with laravel and setup couldn't be any easier. The only "complicated thing" is setting up mx entries, but they provide a really easy to follow tutorial for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailgun?

The interface can be confusing, The dashboard is not as straightforward as other apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mailgun:

Just try it yourself it's not hard to set up and i assure you, you will fall in love with mailgun. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mailgun solving and how is that benefiting you?

Most of the time mailing from a shared host service can be pesky because of mail certification, lack of ssl certificates and mail going to spam folder. Mailgun get's rid of that, your mail will never go into spam again (Of course your email content has to be spam free too). It also provides nice to read statistics about emails status and failure.

When MailGun went down from an outage the other day we received no notifications whatsoever. One of our customers did not receive emails they were sending out of our app... Please integrate a better warning system for future events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Mailgun?

Mailgun essentially eliminates the headaches of email integration. Previously I've setup postfix and sendmail manually and it always ends up the same: complaints of emails not being delivered, false positive spam blocking, and MX blacklisting. With Mailgun, I don't have to worry about any of that. I love the large monthly send limit as most client applications I build do not need massive quantities of email delivered. This allows us to remain in the free tier and keep costs down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Mailgun?

I really can't think of anything "bad" to say about the service. It works exactly as expected for me, and the only times I've had problems, they were the result of poor DNS support on the registrar side (such as poor support for TXT records which are vital to proper email setup). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Mailgun:

The best thing about Mailgun is that once you set it up, you really don't have to think about it anymore. And if you do run into an issue, the reporting system is very helpful in proving questions such as "did our system send email X to user Y?" This is vital for tracking down WHY an email is not received. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Mailgun solving and how is that benefiting you?

Most of our client applications need email notifications of some form, typically registration confirmation email, forgot password email, etc. Mailgun allows us to provide these features with ease, greatly reducing the amount of setup time required for email integration.
