Über uns

Wir helfen Marketern seit 2024, die besten E-Mail-Tools zu finden.

Die nachfolgenden Absätze übernehmen unsere redaktionelle Prüfliste (Fakten sind sprachunabhängig).: Snapshot of verification in four checks

Check	What we verify	Source
Pricing claims	Plan structure, included sends, contact bands, seats	Vendor's official pricing page, read on the page's stated date
Integration claims	Native connections vs. API workarounds	Official docs or a documented marketplace listing
Positioning	Whether the tool fits the job we assign it	Product documentation plus feedback from operating users
Claim audit	Marketing language rewritten as plain trade-offs	Our editorial standard — no vendor-supplied copy

Our Limits, Stated Plainly

• We cannot hands-on test every niche integration; where a guide relies on vendor documentation, it says so.
• We do not audit readers' invoices: if your bill differs from an official pricing page, the vendor page and your contract are the truth.
• Rankings are not for sale — vendors cannot buy position or the removal of criticism.
• We are a small team; long-tail coverage is incomplete. If something is missing, tell us.

How to Read Every Price We Quote

Email pricing is volatile: free tiers move, contact bands reprice, add-ons absorb features. Every price here is a decision lens, not a quote. Before you commit:

Step	Action	Why it matters
1	Open the vendor's official pricing page yourself	Cached roundups are often outdated
2	Model the cost at your next growth milestone	The plan that wins today often loses at the next tier
3	Email pre-sales about the limits that matter	Seats, API caps, overage rules are rarely public

Snapshot: pricing lenses per tool (verify current before deciding)

Häufige Fragen

• Do you sell ranking position? No — rankings are conditional on the use case, and the trade-offs are printed on every page.
• How often are prices re-checked? On a rolling cadence; each fresh read gets a visible "last checked" note.
• Do you test everything yourself? Where a guide relies on vendor documentation rather than direct testing, the guide says so.

A 30-Day Evaluation Plan (shared SOP)

Week	Do this	Evidence to keep
Week 1	Shortlist three tools (specialist, simple, stretch), read official pricing, model 10k / 50k / 100k contacts	Shortlist grid with screenshots and read dates
Week 2	Build one real sending workflow per tool in staging; keep live sends to internal testers only	A working prototype of the highest-value campaign
Week 3	Fire real product events at test accounts; check suppression, retries, escalation	Event traces from one critical automation
Week 4	Compare costs at the second milestone; cancel trials, pick, write the decision memo	A memo your team can audit six months later

Job-fit Ladder (pick by job, not brand)

The job	Shortlist	Why it fits
Stripe / Paddle / Lemon Squeezy SaaS billing events	Sequenzy	Native billing triggers, pay-per-send plans from $19/mo, unlimited contacts
Catalog-heavy commerce	Klaviyo or Omnisend	Purchase-aware flows from day one; watch profile-based pricing
Deep branching + CRM context	ActiveCampaign or HubSpot	Powerful engines priced on contacts + seats; validate feature gates
Newsletter-first publishing	MailerLite or Kit	Simplest operations; deep product-event logic needs plumbing
Budget-tight solo founders	MailerLite or Sequenzy	Usable free tiers; confirm what "unlimited" excludes

Before You Switch Platforms

What to check	The real question	Why it matters
Billing links	Which automations depend on native billing events (Stripe, Paddle, Lemon Squeezy)?	Rebuilding triggers is the top hidden migration cost
Suppression	Do bounces, complaints, unsubscribes export cleanly?	Otherwise you repeat deliverability lessons
Templates	HTML templates, dynamic content, snippets	Expect a rebuild; budget two weeks of QA
Event history	Product and billing events that drove sends	Most tools export dashboards, not events
Contracts	Annual commitment, seat minimums, exit clauses	Mid-term migration can cost double

Häufige Fragen, second pass

• Do you sell ranking position? No — rankings are conditional on the use case; trade-offs are printed on each page.
• How often are prices re-checked? Rolling cadence; each fresh read gets a visible "last checked" note.
• Do you test everything yourself? When a guide relies on vendor documentation, it says so on the page.
• How do I use this resource? Start in the tools directory, narrow with compare pages, then blog guides for the strategy level.
• What if prices changed? Trust the official pricing page you opened the day you read us, and email us the correction.

The table view above is deliberately compact so facts stay scannable across the site — the full comparison tables live on the individual tool pages. Prices in the table are decision lenses, not quotes; official pages are the source of truth, which is why we always link straight to them.

What Changed This Quarter (honest changelog)

• Payment-provider model on every Sequenzy mention was normalized: Stripe, Paddle, and Lemon Squeezy are the official billing integrations, and every other third-party processor has been removed from our claims.
• The enterprise security section no longer asserts certifications we cannot verify against a public audit.
• Added pricing caveats to every paid-tier mention in the compare pages, hedged as a check-current-plans note.
• Utility pages (about/contact) now carry explicit verification checklists and honest limits around our own testing depth.
• All internal links across this site were validated to existing slugs; dead internal anchors have been corrected.

Verify-Before-Commit Checklist (three-step)

Step	Action	Why it matters
1	Open the vendor's official pricing page yourself	Cached roundups are often outdated
2	Model the cost at your next growth milestone	The plan that wins today often loses at the next tier
3	Email pre-sales about the limits that matter	Seats, API caps, overage rules are rarely public

• Do you have an API quote-adapter list? No — we recommend official docs and the official pricing pages linked above.
• How do you handle annual vs monthly pricing? We cite the entry lens and say to model both billing terms before deciding.
• Do you compare against non-English vendors? Coverage follows demand; the directories list what readers ask about most.

Third Pass: who is this for?

Audience	Start here	Next step
SaaS founders on Stripe	/for/stripe-users	Then the compare hub for sequenzy matchups
E-commerce teams	/for/newsletter	Commerce journeys overview, then Klaviyo/Omnisend matchups
Solo newsletter writers	/blog/email-deliverability-guide	Deliverability first, then publishing platforms
Developers	/for/api-first	Then the transactional guide for API-level decisions

Stay updated: prices move fastest at the entry tiers (price, free tier) and at feature gates. The most reliable workflow is to open the two or three official pricing pages that matter and read them the same week you decide - not before.
