SocketLabs

@wzulfikar Check us out at SocketLabs. - Industry leading uptime - Spotlight Analytics also connects to Sendgrid, Mailgun, and Sparkpost/Bird even for those who aren't sending email with us

Sendgrid was founded in 2009 and there are more email services now: - resend → good dx, free 3k emails/mo, or $0.0004/email - zeptomail → from Zoho team, $0.00025/email (cheapest I've found) - plunk → open source, free 1k emails/month, or $0.001/email - cloudflare email → $0.00035/email, transactional emails only - mailgun → free 100 emails/day, or $0.00075/email. it's among the oldest email provider, beside sendgrid and amazon ses. all services above (except cloudflare) have email template functionality. zepto is the cheapest but @resend is a good bet if you just want to start. plunk (what i use now) is open source and you can self-host. what did i miss?

@OmkarKillsCRM 👋

@twilio Think of a nasty customer message. The worst one. Yes, now multiply it in 100x . Treat that as if that message. Sendgrid is so bad. Hate to see a good product go so bad post acquisition. What are the alternatives?

@yammohican Or....hear us out....SocketLabs.

SendGridつかえ

@ovis_meme Or SocketLabs, the number one replacement to Sendgrid. :)

メールサーバーの立て方は一応わかるけど、きょうびSendgridを使わない理由がない。そんなの自分とこで面倒見る余裕はない

@k_koyanagi_null @kakeudon_nami We hope you'll use SocketLabs, where we've been supporting global clients for over 16 years. Our technology and support levels will blow your mind.

@kakeudon_nami SendGridを使って欲しいですね

個人的にもしメールを送る要件があるなら素直にAWS SESかSendGridを使いましょうという感じですねー

@IdeaG Hi Arunas, if you're looking for highly reliable transactional email service, we would be happy to support you here at socketlabs.com.

That said, what provider y'all are using for transactional email?

@JacobWolf @tan_stack @ClickHouseDB @bunjavascript @ReactRouter @switchyards @interstellarbbq Hey, we're on there! If you're going for Austin stickers, may as well go big with @franklinbbq!

Started decorating my work laptop. Got a few more local Austin stickers to get but liking it so far 👀

@grok @XP_Ehsaan @xlab_os @Cloudflare or, consider SocketLabs.

For 1M emails/month: Cloudflare (Workers Paid): $5 base + 3k included, then $0.35/1k → ~$354 total. Resend (Scale + overage): $90 for 100k + $0.90/1k extra → ~$900. SendGrid (Pro tier): ~$500–700+ (scales from $499 at 700k). Yes, Cloudflare is cheaper than SendGrid, Resend, and similar services at this volume. (Deliverability/setup differs.)

@xlab_os @Cloudflare @grok is this cheaper than other transactions mail service ?

@LunarCrush @RoundtableSpace Hi LunarCrush email delivery and analytics waiting for you at socketlabs dot com

@RoundtableSpace lunarcrush dot com

@ZypherHQ Please consider adding a fourth option: - SocketLabs We've been supporting global clients for 17 years, and our Spotlight Analytics actually connects to mailgun and sendgrid for admins who need more delivery visibility.

What do you use as your email service? - Mailgun - SendGrid - AWS SES Two are specialized exclusively for email, while the other is more general-purpose and is also the cheapest one.

@mipsparc @koyhoge As do we here at SocketLabs.com. :)

@koyhoge かなり多様にあります。 それこそSendGridなんかのAPI対応SaaSでもSMTPリレーに対応してますね

SMTPリレーサービスなんてビジネスがあるのかー。 / “SMTPリレーサービス（メールリレーサーバー） | メール配信システムWEBCAS e-mail” htn.to/3cA5Fc7SU5

@jeff_weinstein @stripe Hi! SocketLabs.com if highly reliable email delivery and industry leading analytics is your thing.

what services should we add next to @stripe projects? (please reply to this tweet, and we'll prioritize accordingly!)

@baqir5758 Allow me to introduce you to the one, the only, SocketLabs.com

Rekomendasi SMTP yang terjangkau dong, email verifikasi masuk spam semua 🤦

@grok @tonysimons_ @joncphillips or SocketLabs :)

The fix: Switch from default provider addresses (like yourappherokuapp.com) to a custom domain. Then set up SPF/DKIM/DMARC records in DNS. Use a dedicated service like SendGrid, Postmark, or AWS SES—they handle auth and warming for you. Test at mail-tester.com. That stops spam folder trips fast.

The number of SaaS founders sending emails from a default provider address with no authentication set up is genuinely wild. Your emails are going to spam and you don’t even know it.

@grok @_gabbyTI @amysly_ ahem

@_gabbyTI @amysly_ Nodemailer is awesome indeed – battle-tested, zero deps, and easy as cake for Node.js email verification. Perfect for your school project. Pair it with a pro transporter like SendGrid for production reliability if needed! 🚀

I wanted to implement email verification in my School Management Project, so I came across Nodemailer. I’m not sure if it’s the best option out there or if there’s something better. If you’ve used something better for email verification in Node.js, please let me know
