What do you like best about Mailgun?
We used to like Mailgun, but not anymore. Over the years, the product has had little to no improvements, and their support has been getting worse.
If you are looking for an API-only solution without dedicated support, you can try it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Mailgun?
We were early adopters (when Rackspace managed Mailgun, and used to have 10,000 free emails/month). Even though we were on a free basic version (sharing IP with others), and if the IP were blacklisted the support would quickly assist in changing to a reputable IP address.
Their dedication and super-fast support made us onboard with a paid plan, as we needed support like this in case something went wrong with the campaign.
The UX wasn't good from the start, even though many people were requesting feature updates(voted features by customers). But, we started noticing that the UI started to break first (still broken 😂), then started to get deliverability issues, and they suggested adding another dedicated IP address (was sending around 1.5M - 4M at the time). We requested 3 additional IP and specifically mentioned to assign clean IP addresses.
They didn't even bother to check and provided IP addresses and 1 was blacklisted by major spams checkers (probably used by some other client of theirs). And when we requested to replace it with another IP address, they sent us a document on how to unlist the IP from blacklist🤦♂️.
We decided to remove the IP from Mailgun itself, but they warned us that if in the future if we require another IP then they will assign the same IP to us.
We don't add our new customers to Mailgun anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
