HubSpot email limits hitting us: alternatives?

Posted by Marcus Okoye · · 432 upvotes · 7 comments

Posting from the solo team perspective. We have been working through welcome series and I wanted to compare notes with others in the community.

Context: currently on HubSpot for sending, evaluating Braze for ecommerce. Not looking for sales pitches, just what broke and what held up for you.

    Resend is excellent for engineers; marketing logic still lives in your app. Know which job you are hiring for.

    Customer.io shines when events drive everything. Prompt-built flows help when you lack a data team.
