Works great! Best alternative to Mandrill

I just set this up on my website to send my WordPress emails. Emails are delivered lightning fast and configuration of this plugin was super easy.

I switched because of Mandrill’s new expensive cost for small businesses that only send a couple emails a month. I don’t need to send 25,000 emails a month so it would be a waste to pay for that much – which is Mandrill’s least expensive price/amount.

SendGrid (at least for now) still has a free tier where you can send less than 12k emails/month for free. Since I only send a few dozen – I come WAY under the 12k range even – and I imagine thousands of WordPress websites do as well.

If you want any help configuring this I did a write-up of my set-up experience here:
